Intraventricular cystic tumors constitute a surgical challenge, because of their deep location and the histologically benign nature of most of them. We aim to present concisely, yet comprehensively, the role of neuroendoscopy in the treatment of intraventricular cystic tumors.
A literature review searching for applications of endoscopy in the treatment of intraventricular cystic tumors is presented. Our experience is added to the presented data. In controversial issues, a comparison is made with traditional treatment methods.
Intraventricular endoscopy has been successfully used in the treatment of the whole range of intraventricular cystic tumors. The most common indication is the treatment of colloid cysts. In the treatment of colloid cysts, a comparison with microsurgical techniques showed that endoscopy is advantageous in regard to operative morbidity and postoperative shunt dependency but is associated with a slightly higher recurrence rate.
Intraventricular endoscopy has emerged as a viable option in the treatment of intraventricular cystic tumors.
脑室内囊性肿瘤因其位置深在以及大多数肿瘤组织学呈良性，给外科治疗带来了挑战。我们旨在简要而全面地介绍神经内镜在脑室内囊性肿瘤治疗中的作用。
本文对内镜在脑室内囊性肿瘤治疗中的应用进行了文献回顾，并结合我们的经验和已发表的数据。在有争议的问题上，与传统的治疗方法进行了比较。
脑室内内镜已成功应用于治疗各种脑室内囊性肿瘤。最常见的适应证是治疗胶样囊肿。在胶样囊肿的治疗中，与显微外科技术相比，内镜治疗在手术并发症和术后分流依赖性方面具有优势，但复发率略高。
神经内镜已成为脑室内囊性肿瘤治疗的一种可行选择。
