As the space-occupying lesion grows, ICP rises. When lumbar puncture is performed in these patients, a low-pressure shunt is formed at the site of LP where CSF can escape. As the CSF pressure drops in the spinal column, CSF and brain mass may then shift towards the low-pressure outlet (the LP site).
