Neuroendoscopic lavage: a single-center retrospective cohort in the USA
Extreme prematurity and comorbidities are associated with increased shunt dependency. However, NEL may decrease the development of complex multiloculated hydrocephalus and the need for multiple catheter systems. Larger, long-term studies are needed to define optimal timing and criteria for NEL and its benefits and impact on neurodevelopment in this fragile population.
