Third ventriculostomy in a single pediatric surgical unit
Child's Nervous System, 10/14/09

Egger D et al. – The study suggests that ETV can be successfully done in a small pediatric unit, but with a lower success rate because of small caseload, and therefore, lower experience and routine of the surgeon. Therefore, the authors propose a centralization of patients to obtain a higher number of cases. They confirm that ETV is a safe, reliable, and efficient method with a better outcome in children than infants.
