Water Jet Dissection Technique for Endoscopic Third Ventriculostomy Minimises the Risk of Bleeding and Neurological Complications in Obstructive Hydrocephalus with a Thick and Opaque Third Ventricle Floor

Abstract

The water jet dissection is a useful technique while performing ETV to prevent neurovascular injury. Our improvised technique of creating a water jet is safe, inexpensive, readily available and can be practiced at any centre performing ETV.
