دراسة نتائج التدبير الجراحي لأورام البطين الثالث

Abstract EN

The aim of our research is to study results of surgical treatment of tumors within the third ventricle, and complications after surgery, in Al-Mouwasat University Hospital in Damascus, and comparing to international studies, this gives an obvious idea of prognosis of these tumors.

The importance of this study relates to having inadequate studies about these lesions in Syria.

Consequently, there is not enough information about: surgical results, postoperative complications, and other related information.

Total resection is considered frequently the main target in intraventricular tumors.

Although, rates of that vary widely in deontology.

In our study total resection was achieved in 69% of 42 patients that underwent surgery.

While subtotal resection was done to other cases.
