MIETHKE miniNAV®
Our smallest hydrocephalus shunt

The MIETHKE miniNAV® was developed as a compact differential pressure valve which, due to its small design, is particularly suitable for the treatment of pediatric hydrocephalus, especially in premature and newborn infants.[1] Another area of application is hydrocephalus in bedridden patients.

The valve is made of titanium, a material that allows excellent precision, stability and biocompatibility.

Indication:

  • Treatment of Hydrocephalus
