| Abstract | Migration of a dissected peritoneal piece of the shunting material into the scrotum was encountered in a 1-year-old boy who had received a V-P shunt. Removal of the migrated shunt tube by inguinal exploration and herniorrhaphy were performed, and another V-P shunt was installed simultaneously. This case was considered worthy of reporting as a rare complication of a V-P shunt, and the causal mechanism is discussed with a review of the literature. |
