抄録

A neonate with hydrocephalus associated with Dandy-Walker malformation was successfully treated with an endoscopic placement of a transaqueductal ventricular single catheter. The modified catheter was provided with additional fenestration on its proximal side to allow simultaneous drainage from both the supra- and infratentorial compartments. This technique is well known for isolated fourth ventricles, but has not been applied to hydrocephalus associated with Dandy-Walker malformation. The cyst-ventriculoperitoneal shunt effectively drained both compartments. The patient was doing well 18 months after the surgical procedure. Endoscopic transaqueductal shunt placement can be considered, especially in patients with aqueductal patency.<br>
