摘要
An alternative approach to the burr hole technique for endoscopic third ventriculostomy (ETV) in babes, the minicraniotomy, is described. It is easily performed and allows to close the dura mater and restore the bone integrity. Since 2002, it is the approach to ETV in babes with open fontanel in our service. Analyzing 41 surgeries, the technique did not interfere with the safety and efficacy of the procedure. No cerebrospinal fluid leak occurred. The minicraniotomy seems to be appropriate and advantageous to that age.
