Endoscopic Third Ventriculostomy
Core Techniques in Operative Neurosurgery, 2020The traditional treatment for all forms of hydrocephalus has been the implantation of ventricular shunt systems; however, these systems have inherent tendencies toward complications such as malfunction and infection.

Endoscopic Third Ventriculostomy
Neurosurgery, 1990Abstract Long-term extracranial shunting for hydrocephalus has numerous drawbacks related to shunt malfunction and infection. In some cases outcome has been very disappointing. We successfully managed 5 patients with acquired aqueductal stenoses with no significant morbidity by the use of an ...

Endoscopic third ventriculostomy
Journal of Clinical Neuroscience, 2006Among patients with idopathic aqueductal stenosis or impedance of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) flow in the posterior fossa due to tumour, endoscopic fenestration of the floor of the third ventricle creates an alternative route for CSF flow to the subarachnoid space via the prepeduncular cistern.

Spontaneous third ventriculostomy
Journal of Clinical Neuroscience, 2008Spontaneous ventriculostomy (SV) is a rare condition where there is a spontaneous communication between the ventricle and the subarachnoid space as a result of hydrocephalus. Only four cases of SV through the floor of the third ventricle have been previously reported. Two further cases are presented and the literature reviewed.

BACKGROUND External ventricular drain (EVD) placement is essential for the management of many neurocritical care patients. However, ventriculostomy-related infection (VRI) is a serious complication, and there remains no well-established protocol guiding ...

Endoscopic third ventriculostomy (ETV) is the treatment of choice for obstructive hydrocephalus. In some cases a reclosure of the ventriculostoma occurs. This could be caused by different reasons, such as operative technique, size of the stoma, scarring, or a persisting Liliequist membrane.The databases of the Neurosurgical Department of the Philipps ...

Ventriculoscopy and neuroendoscopy had their beginnings in the early part of the twentieth century, when neurosurgeons were motivated by a desire to control hydrocephalus. The development of endoscopy was initially hampered by significant complications. When extracranial shunting became commonplace, endoscopy was essentially discarded by neurosurgeons.

Background: Endoscopic third ventriculostomy (ETV) has become a standard and safe procedure for obstructive hydrocephalus. ETV can also play an important role in children presenting with shunt malfunction with an added advantage of shunt independence ...

Journal of Neurosurgery, 2001
Since its description by Dandy in 1922, several techniques have been used to perform third ventriculostomy under endoscopic control. Except for the blunt technique, in which the endoscope is used by itself to create the opening in the floor of the third ventricle, the other techniques require more than one instrument to perforate the floor of the ...
