What Are The Side Effects Of Surgery To Remove Excess Fluid In Brain?

My mum has had a CT scan which has found that there is excess fluid in the brain. In order to transfer or remove the fluid I believe that an operation will need to be done. What are the side effects of this operation? What is the failure rate in terms of it going wrong?
