Date Nov. 9, 1995The present invention relates to a double-valved variable pressure device for hydrocephaly having a vertical capsule with sloped ends ending in upper and lower coupling sectors appropriate for connection to a proximal catheter and a distal catheter that constitute the input and output for a cephalo-rachidian liquid through the body. The liquid or volume has its pressure controlled by means of two valves which maintain a constant drained volume along a wide range of pressures the device is submitted to.
