Changes of third ventricle diameter (TVD) mirror changes of the entire ventricular system after initial therapy and during follow-up in pediatric hydrocephalus.

CONCLUSION: TVD showed a significant correlation with all three linear indices at the time of diagnosis and during follow-up changes independently of age, aetiology and ventricular width. TVD and its changes are therefore a reliable surrogate of changes in ventricular size in pediatric hydrocephalus undergoing treatment. PMID: 31147106 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
