Abstract
✓ Specimens of material occluding ventricular catheters removed at shunt revision operations were studied by scanning electron microscopy. Immediate fixation allowed examination of human choroid plexus and ependyma which resembled living tissue.This publication has 15 references indexed in Scilit:
