Abstract
The treatment of hydrocephalus by employing a ventricurovenous shunt tube has been reported by Robert H. Pudenz, M.D. (1957). For the past two years, we have utilized such a tube for the conservative treatment of hydrocephalus and inoperable brain tumor.<BR> Thirteen cases were selected for surgical treatment and the Pudenz Heyer tube was employed in 11 cases, the Holter tube in 1 case and one of Japanese design in 1 case.<BR> These cases were operated at Juntendo Univ. in surgical department during the period from January, 1960 to July, 1961.
