Key Words	Endoscopic third ventriculostomy; Neuroendoscopy; Hydrocephalus; Case report; ;
Core Tip	The endoscopic third ventriculostomy (ETV) is a suitable alternative to extracranial shunting in obstructive hydrocephalus. It consists of fenestrating the third ventricle floor, thus establishing a free flow of cerebrospinal fluid from the ventricles to the subarachnoid space. It offers a chance for a shunt-free life in children with hydrocephalus. We present a treatment flow of a 9-year-old patient diagnosed with obstructive hydrocephalus due to tectal glioma that was successfully treated with an ETV and review the obstructive hydrocephalus pathology.
