Abstract:
After creating an experimental foetal hydrocephalus in sheep, we achieved its treatment utilizing the implantation of a ventriculo-amniotic shunt (mini-uni-shunt). The results obtained were satisfactory. However, it is evident that the application of an experimental technique in human foetuses requires maximum caution.
