Spetzler® is the most recognized name in lumbar-peritoneal shunting products, and is available exclusively from Integra. The original lumbar-peritoneal shunt designed for the treatment of communicating hydrocephalus in adults can be inserted without a laminectomy. Pressure control is achieved through a combination of the double slit valve at the peritoneal end and the small inner diameter catheter.
