 | | B: The lesion was resected using a transcortical, transventricular endoscopic technique. | | | The first was a patient who harbored a cysticercal cyst in the roof of the third ventricle that was removed using a two-portal endoscopic technique. | | | Our success with three of three third ventriculostomies was in line with the published high response rate in adult patients with acquired aqueductal stenosis.[19] It must be acknowledged, however, that the follow-up period in our cases was relatively short, and therefore the long-term success is still uncertain. |

| | With regards "congenital" hydrocephalus (occurring at or close to birth) due to aqueductal stenosis, several authors have reported poor outcomes when treating the condition with third ventriculostomies postulating that there had been a congenital failure of the normal fluid pathways outside of the brain to develop. | | | An Australian physician, on the other hand, favors an attempt to treat the condition with a third ventriculostomy reporting a 60% success rate, a rate of success identical to that of his late onset obstructive hydrocephalic treated with third ventriculostomies. | | | 10 patients had the floor of their third ventricle opened using a stereotactically guided cannula with a 100% success rate by two surgeons. |

| | Colloid Cyst of Third Ventricle |
| | Although these lesions do not have a malignant potential, they are managed surgically because they tend to cause hydrocephalus by obstructing cerebrospinal fluid flow at the third ventricle. | | | Colloid cysts are smooth, round lesions of endodermal origin, typically located at the foramen of Munro in the anterior aspect of the third ventricle. | | | There is enlargement of the lateral ventricles, effacement of the sulci, and transependymal cerebrospinal fluid leak (arrows), consistent with acute hydrocephalus. |
