“…In 25 studies, a rigid endoscope was used; in four studies, a flexible endoscope was used; and in six studies, both flexible and rigid endoscopes were used, while in 6 studies, the type of endoscope used was not described (Table 1). Table 1 presents the 40 included series describing neurocognitive complications, of which 8 assess for neurocognitive outcome through specific neuropsychological test batteries [3,4,10,[12][13][14][15][16]. Transient and permanent neurocognitive complications in 2804 ventricular neuroendoscopic procedures occurred in 2.0% (n = 55) and 1.04% (n = 28) of the patients, respectively.…”

“…They conclude that a nondominant approach for dominant-hemispheric ventricular cysts is associated with very low approach-related morbidity [3]. Ten out of 22 patients undergoing CC resection underwent neuropsychological testing in a series published in 2016 by Birski et al [10]. In all patients, cognitive function in particular memory improved or remained unchanged after surgery.…”

“…In addition, endoscopic treatment of hydrocephalus is considered preferable to the placement of ventriculoperitoneal shunt (VPS) in patients above the age of six months, since it is at least as efficient and it avoids a lifetime shunt dependency and associated complications, occurring sometimes years after VPS placement [1,7]. Despite the growing preference of neuroendoscopic procedures for the treatment of hydrocephalus and intraventricular lesions, only few studies analyze variables such as cognitive and emotional deficits following these procedures [3,4,[8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16]. In addition, the very few studies assessing for neurocognition in a systematic manner do not focus on neurocognitive decline caused by the surgery itself, but rather on improvement in neurocognitive outcome.…”

Neurocognitive Complications after Ventricular Neuroendoscopy: A Systematic Review

In recent years, neuroendoscopic treatment of hydrocephalus and various ventricular pathologies has become increasingly popular. It is considered by many as the first-choice treatment for the majority of these cases. However, neurocognitive complications following ventricular neuroendoscopic procedures may occur leading mostly to amnesia, which might have a grave effect on the patient’s quality of life. Studies assessing neurocognitive complications after ventricular neuroendoscopic procedures are sparse. Therefore, we conducted a systematic review assessing the available literature of neurocognitive complications and outcome after ventricular neuroendoscopy. Of 1216 articles screened, 46 were included in this systematic review. Transient and permanent neurocognitive complications in 2804 ventricular neuroendoscopic procedures occurred in 2.0% (n=55) and 1.04% (n=28) of the patients, respectively. Most complications described are memory impairment, followed by psychiatric symptoms (psychosyndrome), cognitive impairment not further specified, declined executive function, and confusion. However, only in 20% of the series describing neurocognitive complications or outcome (n=40) was neurocognition assessed by a trained neuropsychologist in a systematic manner. While in most of these series only a part of the included patients underwent neuropsychological testing, neurocognitive assessment was seldom done pre- and postoperatively, long-term follow up was rare, and patient’s cohorts were small. A paucity of studies analyzing neurocognitive complications and outcome, through systematic neuropsychological testing, and the correlation with intraoperative lesions of neuronal structures (e.g., fornix) exists in the literature. Therefore, the neurocognitive and emotional morbidity after ventricular neuroendoscopic procedures might be underestimated and warrants further research.

A unique finding of cavum velum interpositum colloid-like cyst and literature review of a commonplace lesion in an uncommon place

Colloid cysts typically reside within the area of the anterior third ventricle, in the proximity of the foramen of Monro. Although they are considered to commonly localize in various parts of the cerebrum, they are exceedingly rare outside the ventricular system and rarely occur within the velum interpositum. We have reported here a rare case of a velum interpositum colloid-like cyst in a 23-year-old man, who presented to our clinic with temporary binocular strabismus, which he had been experiencing for the previous year. In addition, we have briefly reviewed evidence regarding the generation, anatomy, and pathogenesis of colloid cysts, as well as the management options for such rare cases. The present report is only the third to describe a colloid-like cyst located within the velum interpositum, providing additional data that may aid in elucidating the pathogenesis of these neoplasms.
