【 摘 要 】

Shunt migration is a rare, but reported complication of ventriculoperitoneal shunt and migration of the same through the processus vaginalis is known. We present a 20-month-old boy who presented with migration of the ventriculoperitoneal shunt tube through the patent processus vaginalis and a subsequent hydrocele. The hydrocele and migrated shunt resolved spontaneously.
