AESCULAP-MIETHKE Shunt Systems for the Treatment of Hydrocephalus

AESCULAP-MIETHKE shunt systems for the treatment of hydrocephalus are among the most innovative products on the market today.Their hydrostatic, gravity-assisted mechanisms*, protected by a durable titanium casing, allow for reliable physiological drainage of cerebrospinal fluid when the patient is in both horizontal and vertical positions.Various types of valves are available to satisfy the requirements of adult and child patients as well as premature babies.The high precision and reliability of our valves is well-known and essentially the result of the high quality titanium implant material we use.Many clinical studies verify an improved patient treatment and a reduced complication rate achieved by implantation with this new generation of hydrocephalus valves.
