A member asked:
I need a lp but have lp shunt. two docs disagree on how. under fluoro or blind? i have no preference, but is there a standard recommendation?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No "right" answer: If you have no arthritis, are relatively slender, and have not had a low back surgery then blind should be straightforward. Many docs default to fluoro as it makes then localization a "no brainer".
