Abstract
Methods for deploying and removing an endovascular cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) shunt device in a patient's spinal subarachnoid space or third ventricle are disclosed herein. The disclosed methods can be used to treat elevated CSF pressure (e.g., acquired communicating hydrocephalus, pseudotumor cerebri), normal pressure hydrocephalus, or as a temporary measure to drain CSF and/or blood from the subarachnoid space instead of inserting an external ventricular drain in the patient.
