| Popis: | Background and Importance: Suprasellar arachnoid cysts are insidious and progressive ventricular cysts that cause hydrocephalus, ataxia, optic, and endocrinological symptoms. These cysts can be successfully treated via an endoscopic ventriculocystocisterostomy (VCC). Clinical Presentation: A three-year-old patient presented with emesis and bobble-head doll syndrome with a suprasellar arachnoid cyst. Through our video, we present our neuronavigation-assisted endoscopic VCC without cautery and the relevant neuroanatomy. Conclusion: Neuroendoscopic fenestration is a preferred approach over resection or shunting for a suprasellar arachnoid cyst. In addition, VCC has decreased recurrence and increased radiologic improvement over a ventriculocystostomy (VC). |
