“…After the compensation phase, intracranial pressure elevation can develop and cause clinical signs, including altered state of consciousness, seizures, gait abnormalities, and vestibular signs. VPS is recommended to prevent deterioration of the neurological state if any neurological signs develop or repeated MRI scans reveal any progression of ventricular dilation during follow-up (30). We recommended VPS surgery in this case, but it was declined by the owner.…”

This case series describes the surgical removal of lateral ventricular tumors using a transcallosal approach, long-term follow-up, and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) results of 3 dogs. Two tumors were benign choroid plexus tumors (CPT). One was a grade 2 astrocytoma. Complete tumor removal was achieved using the transcallosal approach. All dogs had ventriculomegaly which remained static or progressed during the follow-up period. All dogs had epileptic seizures before the surgical procedure which persisted despite tumor removal. One dog with CPT was alive after 3 years and 5 months and had minor focal seizures every 3–4 months. No other clinical signs were observed. The second dog with CPT was neurologically free for 17 months after the surgical procedure but died due to acute-onset therapy-resistant generalized epileptic seizures. The third dog with intraventricular astrocytoma experienced epileptic seizures 2 and 4 months after the surgical procedure. The second event was therapy-resistant which led to death.

An 11-year-old spayed female Maltese dog presented with a 2-month history of gait alterations, wide-based stance, and chronic vomiting. Neurological examination revealed cerebellovestibular signs, including head tilt, nystagmus, strabismus, intentional tremor, and hypermetric gait. MRI showed a mass with iso- to hypointensity on T1-weighted (T1W) images and heterogeneous hyperintensity on T2-weighted (T2W) images, with marked non-uniform contrast enhancement. The tumor was removed via a telovelar approach without intraoperative complications. Postoperatively, the dog developed non-ambulatory paraparesis with the rigidity of the pelvic limbs but recovered ambulation within 6 days. Preoperative neurological signs progressively improved, and the patient was discharged without complications 10 days after surgery. Histological examination revealed dense spindle cells with an abundant collagen matrix and oval-shaped nucleated cells with small whorls, leading to a diagnosis of transitional meningioma of the fourth ventricle. MRI follow-up at 8 months postoperatively showed no definitive evidence of recurrence. At the final follow-up, 15.4 months postoperatively, mild neurological signs, including a slight head tilt and subtle strabismus, remained, but the rest of the neurological examination was normal. This is the first reported case of a meningioma in the fourth ventricle of a dog successfully removed using the telovelar approach.
