In this study, the authors sought to determine factors that affect the migration rate of ventricular catheters in hydrocephalic children who undergo shunt implantation in the first 3 years of life.enHR = hazard ratio; IICP = increased intracranial pressure; VP = ventriculoperitoneal; burr hole valve; hydrocephalus; pediatric; proximal shunt failure; ventricular catheter; ventriculoperitoneal shunt[SDGs]SDG3Article; brain ventricle peritoneum shunt; catheter migration; child; female; follow up; human; hydrocephalus; infant; major clinical study; male; medical record review; neuroimaging; preschool child; priority journal; shunt failure; surgical technique; treatment outcomeUsing a burr hole valve prevents proximal shunt failure in infants and toddlersjournal article10.3171/2019.4.PEDS18681312523832-s2.0-85071872619WOS:000484053700010https://scholars.lib.ntu.edu.tw/handle/123456789/476322
