#3  NOVA did a program about a girl with a similar condition some years ago. They installed the shunt in her still in the womb, but she had a similar displacement of brain tissue. When they filmed her, she was just graduating from high school, had a slight limp and a slight speech impediment, but otherwise didn't seem to be disabled.
