Images of brain from shunted sheep. A) Axial section of brain from shunted sheep 77R demonstrating enlarged ventricles and the choroid plexus surrounding the catheter. This animal was found dead in its cage with shunt occlusion 16 days after kaolin injection and 9 days after shunt placement. B) Coronal section of brain from shunted sheep 77R. The lateral ventricles are moderately enlarged (V/C ratio of 0.180) with elevation and thinning of the corpus callosum.
