Description:
The management of hydrocephalus is a complex and significant challenge in neurosurgical practice, with varied clinical presentations and multiple treatment options. The book Hydrocephalus - Surgical Treatment covers hydrocephalus secondary to subarachnoid and intraventricular hemorrhage, Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus, Idiopathic Intracranial Hypertension, and post-traumatic hydrocephalus. The book presents the personal experiences of experts, as well as current evidence-based approaches for the diagnosis and surgical management of hydrocephalus. The book offers detailed surgical guidance on ventriculoperitoneal shunting and endoscopic third ventriculostomy, accompanied by critical discussions of complications and alternative treatment strategies. The current book is a comprehensive effort by experts across the disciplines involved in managing hydrocephalus, and it is anticipated to be a valuable resource for neurosurgeons, residents, neurologists, and researchers in the field.
