ABSTRACT
Objective To discuss the techniques of ventricular endoscopy for obstructive hydrocephalus.Methods A total of 33 patients with obstructive hydrocephalus were treated by ventriculostomy using ventricular endoscopy from June 2003 to December 2006.The patients had received CT,MRI,and 99mTc-DTPA cistern SPECT before the surgery.Results Endoscopic third ventriculostomy was performed successfully in 32 patients,the other patient died of hemorrhage under the third ventricle fistula.Postoperative fever occurred in 13 patients.One patient developed bilateral chronic subdural hematoma 6 months after the operation,and was cured by drill and drainage.Three patients developed subdural hydroma 6 months postoperation without showing symptoms.They were monitored without any treatment.The 32 patients were followed up for 2-42 months(mean,16.7 months),all of them achieved clinical relieve.In the patients,the intracranial pressure(ICP) was 26(16-39) cm H2O before the operation,and was significantly decreased to 22(12-28) cm H2O 7 days after the operation(t=2.903,0.005
