Endoscopic treatment of complex multiloculated hydrocephalus in children, steps that may help to decrease revision rate.

Background: Multiloculated hydrocephalus (MLH) is associated with increased intracranial pressure, with intraventricular septations, loculations, and isolation of parts of the ventricular system. Search continues for ideal surgical remedy capable of addressing the dimensions of the problem. We aimed to evaluate endoscopic septal fenestration and pellucidotomy combined with proximal shunt tube refashioning and further advancement into isolated loculations of the ventricular system containing choroid plexus.
