Endoscopic Ventriculocisternostomy with Stent Placement for Trapped Temporal Horn

Trapped temporal horn (TTH) is a subtype of focal obstructive hydrocephalus. Although a ventriculoperitoneal shunt is a traditional treatment approach, it poses risks of shunt failure and infection. The emergence of neuroendoscopy has led to an increased interest in ventriculocisternostomy as an alternative. This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of endoscopic ventriculocisternostomy with stent placement (EVSP) for TTH.
