Hydrocephalus is a prevalent problem in the pediatric population, and patients with ventriculo-peritoneal shunts are often encountered. The use of ventricular cholecystic shunts is an option for cholecystic patients who are unable to have a ventriculo-peritoneal shunt. This is a case report that describes a late complication of a ventricular cholecystic shunt. Eleven years after insertion of a ventricular cholecystic shunt, the patient developed cholelithiasis encrusted on shunt tubing. The shunt was revised, and 6 months follow-up has shown relief of symptoms and no further evidence of cholelithiasis. (c) 2006 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
