MUMBAI, India, Sept. 22 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202617086669 A) filed by Magram, Gary on July 15, 2026, for Apparatus For Shunting Cerebrospinal Fluid.
Inventor includes Magram, Gary.
The application for the patent was published on September 18, 2026, under issue no. 38/2026.
Abstract: Apparatus for shunting cerebrospinal fluid comprising either a sleeved ventricular catheter and/or an artificial dural sac (ADS). The sleeved ventricular catheter comprises an inner catheter and an outer catheter that circumscribes and is spaced apart from at least a portion of the inner catheter to form a gap. The inner catheter comprises a plurality of apertures through which CSF may enter the inner catheter. The ADS comprises a flexible wall defining a volume where CSF accumulates. The ADS is coupled to the ventricular catheter via an ADS catheter and a Y-connector. The ADS is adapted to be placed in an abdomen such that abdominal movement, diaphragmatic movement, or a decrease in intracranial pressure causes CSF to flow from the ADS through the ventricular catheter and into a ventricle in the brain.
