12/03/2008 - Madrid, Spain (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Seve Ballesteros returned to intensive care Wednesday at a Spanish hospital after a fourth brain operation.
A valve was put into the Spaniard's brain to drain fluid and during the surgery, doctors also repaired a bone defect that was brought on by one of his previous three surgeries.
"The patient, Severiano Ballesteros, underwent scheduled surgery for the placement of a cephalorachidian fluid VP shunt. In the same intervention, the medical team has done a cranioplastia to the repair a bone defect. His situation is stable and will remain in the intensive care unit," according to a statement from La Paz Hospital."
Ballesteros, a five-time major champion, had previously had part of the tumor removed in one surgery, then had part of his skull removed in a second operation. That procedure, known as a 'decompressive craniotomy,' was done to relieve pressure that was building on his brain.
His third surgery was necessary to remove the remnants of the tumor, which is suspected to be cancerous, as well as to reduce the swelling on his brain.
Ballesteros improved before Wednesday's procedure and he was allowed to return home for a period of time last month.
The Spaniard is the all-time wins leader on the European Tour with 50 and has totaled 87 career wins worldwide. He has also accumulated a 20-12-5 record in eight Ryder Cup appearances, and was the captain for the victorious European Ryder Cup squad at Valderrama in 1997.
