摘要
A surgical shunt capable of revision and inspection on a minimal invasive basis is provided. The shunt comprises a ventricle tube and drain tube connected by an elbow. The elbow has branches and a bend therein so as to connect the tubes at nearly a right angle. A portal is mounted on the bend of said elbow. The portal comprises a concave slit valve and a portal cover thus forming a self-sealing access to the shunt. The portal is oriented on the elbow so as to allow passage therethrough into either of said tubes by an angioscope or other device. Thus, the angioscope or other device can be externally inserted into the interior regions of the shunt in order to remove blockages and improve cerebrospinal fluid flow without surgical procedures.
