Welcome to Chat Doctor This is good treatment. Since there was block of the shunt had to be revised. This shunt will remove excess brain fluid and send it to the abdominal fluid. You need to follow up with your Neurosurgeon in this regard. You can get consult any major hospital in your area, preferably Govt. Hospital for good treatment and subsidized costs as well.
