Endoscopic Treatment of Hydrocephalus in Adults
68 patients with hydrocephalus treated endoscopically were studied. 28 patients had primary aqueduct obstruction, 21 an obstruction
secondary to tumors, 3 the Chiai I malformation with hydrocephalus, 4 tetraventricular hydrocephalus, and the other 12 idiopathic hydrocephalus
with normal pressure. In all cases endoscopic third ventriculostomy (ETV) was done in the classical manner under general anesthesia, creating a
channel between the third ventricle and the interpeduncular cistern. In 66 cases ETV was done successfully without severe intra- and post-operative
complications. 2 cases ended with shunting due to poor visualization of anatomic landmarks. The overall rate of neurological improvement
after ETV was 85%. ETV is now an accepted treatment of choice for obstructive hydrocephalus and it is very probable that ETV will become an
alternative neurosurgical technique in treating other types of hydrocephalus.
