Successful endoscopic third ventriculostomy in a patient with 40 years of ventriculoperitoneal shunt dependency since infancy: a case report.

Ventriculoperitoneal shunt malfunction is a common complication in patients with lifelong hydrocephalus. We present a case of a 40-year-old man who successfully underwent endoscopic third ventriculostomy (ETV) for shunt malfunction following neonatal meningitis. Despite long-term shunt dependency and an infectious etiology, ETV effectively managed his hydrocephalus, probably due to aqueductal stenosis and preserved cerebrospinal fluid absorption. This suggests that ETV is a viable option for adult hydrocephalus patients experiencing shunt malfunction, even those with lifelong shunt dependency and a history of infectious etiology.

期刊介绍： The journal has been expanded to encompass all aspects of pediatric neurosciences concerning the developmental and acquired abnormalities of the nervous system and its coverings, functional disorders, epilepsy, spasticity, basic and clinical neuro-oncology, rehabilitation and trauma. Global pediatric neurosurgery is an additional field of interest that will be considered for publication in the journal.
