Intraventricular Tumour

Intraventricular tumours are rare growths that occur within the ventricles—fluid-filled cavities in the brain responsible for producing and circulating cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). These tumours can lead to hydrocephalus (fluid buildup), headaches, vision changes, and neurological deficits due to their deep location.

At Srinivasa Neurologics, led by Dr. Rakshith Srinivasa, we specialize in minimally invasive and microsurgical approaches to safely access and remove intraventricular tumours. Using neuronavigation, endoscopy, and intraoperative imaging, our team ensures precise surgery while minimizing risks.

Conditions That May Require Intraventricular Tumour Surgery

• Ependymomas – Tumours arising from the lining of ventricles.

• Subependymomas – Benign, slow-growing intraventricular tumours.

• Central Neurocytomas – Rare tumours typically affecting young adults.

• Choroid Plexus Tumours – Growths in the CSF-producing structures.

• Metastatic Lesions – Secondary tumours spreading into ventricles.

• Colloid Cysts – Benign cysts that can block CSF flow and cause sudden symptoms.

Treatment Services We Offer

Endoscopic Resection

• Minimally invasive, keyhole surgery using endoscopes.

• Safe removal with minimal disruption to surrounding brain tissue.

Microsurgical Excision

• Advanced microsurgical techniques with high-precision instruments.

• Guided by neuronavigation for accurate tumour targeting.

CSF Diversion Procedures

• Ventriculoperitoneal (VP) shunt or endoscopic third ventriculostomy (ETV) to relieve hydrocephalus.

Intraoperative Neuro-Monitoring

• Continuous monitoring of brain function for safety.

Post-Surgical Rehabilitation

• Neurological rehab, physiotherapy, and follow-up imaging to ensure recovery.
