Neuroendoscopic fenestration for entrapped temporal horn after surgery ：report of 3 cases

The postoperative ventricular adhesion after resection of CNS tumors may obstruct physiological CSF circulation and cause temporal horn entrapment. The surgical goal is to restore physiological flow of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). The authors reviewed their database to report their experience with endoscopic fenestration for treating entrapped temporal horn caused by atrial adhesions. All endoscopic operations performed from February 2015 to December 2016 were reviewed. Three patients developed temporal horn entrapment after tumor resection.
