“…In terms of retrograde meningitis, laparoscopic cholecystectomy without any manipulations has been performed safely because the VPS catheter had an anti‐reflex valve . Careful attention should be paid to the risk of infection during laparoscopic colorectal surgery.…”

“…However, the present report is the first report of laparoscopic surgery for rectal cancer without manipulation of the catheter. In laparoscopic surgery for such cases, the pneumoperitoneum pressure is generally maintained at 8–15 mmHg . We maintained the pressure at 10 mmHg, as is our usual practice.…”

“…It has therefore been standard practice to perform a laparotomy rather than laparoscopy in these patients. However, there have been recent reports of laparoscopic surgery on the gallbladder and colon in patients with VPS . In these reports, various techniques to manage the VPS catheter were undertaken before surgery, including extracorporeal clamping, external fistulation, catheter removal, and not manipulating the catheter.…”

Laparoscopic surgery has been relatively contraindicated in patients with ventriculoperitoneal shunts (VPS) because of concerns about the effect of the pneumoperitoneum on shunt function. However, there have been recent reports of laparoscopic surgery on the gallbladder and cecum. This is the first report of laparoscopic high anterior resection for rectal cancer without manipulation of the VPS catheter in a patient with VPS. We made a diagnosis of advanced rectal cancer in a 77-year-old man who had a VPS to treat hydrocephalus after a subarachnoid hemorrhage. We performed the procedure with the patient in a 15° head-down tilt and with 10-mmHg pneumoperitoneum pressure. There were no postoperative complications. We concluded that laparoscopic surgery for rectal cancer can be safely performed in patients with VPS.

“…Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) shunts, such as ventriculoperitoneal (VP) and lumboperitoneal (LP), are widely used for the treatment of hydrocephalus. The development of shunt technology has contributed to improved patient survival rates, implying that an increasing number of patients will require abdominal surgery [ 1 ]. As the demand for minimally invasive surgeries increases, most abdominal surgeries are now being performed laparoscopically.…”

A 78-year-old woman with lumboperitoneal (LP) shunt was diagnosed with advanced cancer of the ascending colon. Laparoscopic right hemicolectomy was performed without manipulating the catheter. The patient's postoperative course was uneventful, with no shunt-related complications or neurological deficit. The number of patients with cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) shunt who require abdominal surgery has been increasing. There are only few studies on laparoscopic surgery for patients with LP shunt, and the safety of pneumoperitoneum in the CSF shunt remains controversial. Consistent with other studies, we considered that pneumoperitoneum with a pressure of 10 mmHg has few negative effects. Our recommendations are as follows: (1) during colorectal resection, laparoscopic surgery can be performed without routine manipulation of the shunt catheter; (2) altering the location of the port is necessary to prevent both damage to the shunt tube during surgery and wound infection postoperatively; and (3) laparoscopic surgery is superior to laparotomy because it is associated with reduced surgical site infections and postoperative adhesions. However, laparoscopy should be performed at least 3 months after the construction of CSF shunt.
