Outcomes of Endoscopic Third Ventriculostomy in Cases of Congenital Hydrocephalus Based on MRI CSF Flowmetry and Transcranial Doppler in Infants
Abstract:Background: Endoscopic Third Ventriculostomy (ETV) is considered an alternative to ventriculo-peritoneal (VP) shunt insertion to avoid the shunt complications. To improve the outcome of the infants with congenital hydrocephalus (HCP) through using adjuvant tools with endoscopic third ventriculostomy, which are transcranial Doppler and CSF flowmetry to assess the flow through the ventriculostomy. Objectives: Primary objective was to assess the clinical and radiological outcomes of endoscopic third ventriculosto… Show more
