Endoscopic third ventriculostomy
Journal of Pediatric Neurosciences, 2009 Endoscopic third ventriculostomy (ETV) is one of the efficacious surgical options available for obstructive hydrocephalus, and is preferable to a ventriculoperitoneal shunt in those eligible. We retrospectively studied 115 cases, who underwent ETV at our institute over the last 5 years. Thirty-eight patients were infants. Major indications for ETV were

Endoscopic third ventriculostomy in posterior fossa tumor
Archives of Pediatric Neurosurgery, 2020 Posterior fossa (PF) tumors are among the most frequent primary neoplasms in children. Proximity to the fourth ventricle, and therefore cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) pathways, predisposes children with PF tumors to the development of obstructive ...
