Abstract
Neuroendoscopic third ventriculostomy is becoming increasingly popular as the primary mode of therapy for patients with noncommunicating hydrocephalus. In this article the author reviews the procedure and its indications, and highlights its complications. It can, without doubt, be recommended as the first line treatment for hydrocephalus and also in cases in which shunt malfunction or infection occurs.
