Abstract:
A shunt device for shunting cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) from a CSF containing space to a sinus system cavity ( 21 ) comprises a tubular inlet element, a flow restricting part, and a tubular outlet element having an outlet end ( 17 ) with an outlet opening ( 19 ) for insertion in the sinus system cavity ( 21 ), and a one-way valve preventing flow in a direction from the outlet opening to the inlet opening. The shunt device further comprises a distancer ( 35 ), said distancer being provided at the outlet end ( 17 ) of the tubular outlet element.

Claim (Index 23):
A method for fixating the shunt device according to any of  claims 1  to  19  in a sinus system cavity of an individual, the method comprising the steps of:\n a) inserting at least a part of the tubular inlet element, comprising the inlet opening, into a cerebrospinal fluid containing space, such as the subarachnoid space of a patient, \n b) inserting at least a part of the tubular outlet element, comprising the outlet opening and the distancer in a compacted state into a cavity of the sinus system, such as the sinus transversus or the vena jugularis cavity of the patient \n c) changing the state of the distancer from the compacted state to an expanded use state, and \n d) fixating the shunt device.
