Case reports of performing ETV and placing a stent
Intraventricular Hematoma
Used

i l IVH as a method
h d to
aspirate clot
Also used to treat p
patients with cerebellar hematomas
with obstructive HCP
Indications
z
Intraventricular Tumors
Used to relieve HCP and perform tumor biopsy
McArthur et al., reported long term control of HCP and
ventriculoscope tract
Wellon et al.,
al reported 13 patients with tectal plate
gliomas and HCP. All underwent ETV with symptoms
resolved at 31 months

Indications

Communicating Hydrocephalus

Mean age 35 years old
Mean follow-up 24 months
Adult Outcomes

Results
At one month, 45/58 (77.6%) patients had improvement
in clinical outcome

No predictive value of reduced ventricle size on MRI
within 2 weeks, however, it was significant in
predicting good outcome at 3 months and 6 months
