Endoscopic third ventriculostomy Jallo GI; Kothbauer KF; Abbott IRNeurosurg Focus 2005[Dec]; 19 (6): E11The 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. A significant advance in the treatment of hydrocephalus has been the evolution of endoscopy. The recent technological advances in this field have led to a renewed interest in endoscopic third ventriculostomy as the treatment of choice for obstructive hydrocephalus. Although several different endoscopes are available, the authors favor a rigid one to perform a blunt fenestration of the third ventricle floor. This description of the technique stresses the nuances for successful completion of this procedure.|Endoscopy/*methods/standards/trends[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Hydrocephalus/pathology/physiopathology/*surgery[MESH]|Postoperative Complications/etiology/physiopathology/prevention & control[MESH]|Third Ventricle/pathology/physiopathology/*surgery[MESH]|Treatment Outcome[MESH]|Ventriculostomy/*methods/standards/trends[MESH] |
