Endoscopic Third Vent Info Needed   Message List  
Reply | Forward Message #111 of 2029 |
My name is Melissa. I am looking to find any information about the
procedure called Endoscopic Third Ventriculostomy. If you have had
this done can you please contact me with your results and how it
went for you. Recovery time and problems would be greatly
appreciated. This procedure has been presented to me as my shunt
has recently failed. Response may be slow as someone is writing this
for me.

Thank You,
Melissa
