congenital hydrocephalus

congenital hydrocephalus:
Has anyone heard of this? Are there long term effects after the shunt surgery? What are the possible complications?

Thanks
Becky

My cousin's baby was born with this and they put a shunt in him and he is doing great. They said he will never play football but he sure can wrestle with the best at family get togethers. We don't see him but twice a year so I don't know all the details.
