Abstract: Abstract Background Intraventricular tumors are rare, optimal treatment is not defined. Symptomatic patients often exhibit life‐threatening hydrocephalus. With several months time‐to‐effect after radiotherapy (RT), increased intracranial pressure is concerning. This increase in pressure can be… read more here.

DOI: 10.25259/sni_868_2021
Abstract: Background: Intraventricular tumors can generally result in obstructive hydrocephalus as they grow. Rarely, however, some intraventricular tumors develop superficial siderosis (SS) and trigger hydrocephalus, even though the tumor has hardly grown. Here, we present an… read more here.

DOI: 10.4103/0028-3886.333458
Abstract: Background: Intraventricular tumors pose a surgical challenge because of the difficulty in reaching their deep location through safe corridors and their adherence or proximity to vital neurovascular structures. Although microneurosurgery is the mainstay of surgical… read more here.
