摘要
A new technique using an echocardiographic examination for preoperative visual assessment of the right atrium as an aid to accurate placement of a cardiac tube in a ventriculoatrial shunt is described. This method provides correct localization of the tube end, is safe for the patient, and is repeatable in the postoperative course.
