A catheter is inserted through the brain tissue into the enlarged lateral ventricle. A valve is attached to the ventricular catheter. A periumbilical incision is made dissecting through until the peritoneum is identified and incised. The shunt is tunneled, passing over from the belly up to the cranial incision with a small counter incision in the neck. The shunt tubing is passed through and then cut and attached to the strata valve. Free flow of cerebrospinal fluid is obtained from the distal shunt tubing and is placed into the peritoneum.
