The normalization trend of ventricular morphology after lateral ventricular tumor resection without additional diversion.

ABSTRACT: Intraventricular tumors frequently provoke alterations in ventricular morphology. This study aims to quantificational assess perioperative dynamic fluctuations in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) volume within the lateral ventricles of patients harboring lateral ventricular tumors. A retrospective review encompassing 90 patients who underwent surgical intervention for lateral ventricular tumors at our institution was undertaken. Comprehensive observations at multiple perioperative time points were conducted, and LVCV analyses were performed to delineate the longitudinal dynamic alterations in ventricular morphology. Additionally, LVCV measurements were juxtaposed with data from 19 healthy subjects to stratify patients into two cohorts: those exhibiting preoperative increased LVCV and those wi
