Abstract:
Endoscopic third ventriculostomy (ETV) is an effective alternative to ventriculoperitoneal shunting as well as external ventricular drainage for the urgent management of acute hydrocephalus. We performed this study to investigate the efficacy and safety of ETV before tumor resection in managing hydrocephalus in patients with posterior fossa brain tumors (PFBT) in our neurosurgery department.
