Variations of endoscopic ventricular anatomy in children suffering from hydrocephalus associated with myelomeningocele.
Thirty-four patients less than 4 months old and suffering from hydrocephalus associated with myelomeningocele (MM) underwent endoscopic surgery to treat the hydrocephalus. The myelomeningocele was treated prior to our surgical intervention. We have found that different endoscopic anatomies of the ventricles exist between patients.
