About this procedure

This procedure is used only on patients with hydrocephalus induced by a blockage of the cerebrospinal fluid. It makes a bypass for the cerebrospinal fluid in the brain, and a shunt is not required. In this procedure, an endoscope is passed through the top of the skull into the brain. The endoscope enters the third ventricle through the lateral ventricle. A hole is made in its floor using a laser and excess fluid is drained into the subarachnoid space through the hole.
 
How to Prepare for Third Ventriculostomy
  • The patient may need to give some blood tests.
  • The patient should inform the doctor about any medical conditions and illnesses and medication that the patient may be taking.
  • Some medication that the patient is taking may be stopped.
