Choosing Meliva Kardiolita Hospital, Vilnius for Endoscopic Third Ventriculostomy gives patients access to experienced neurosurgeons, advanced neuroendoscopy systems, high-resolution brain imaging, specialized operating facilities, and structured postoperative monitoring. Established in 1998, the JCI accredited hospital in Vilnius, Lithuania has 36 beds and provides specialised treatment for hydrocephalus and other neurological conditions.

Endoscopic Third Ventriculostomy is generally performed under general anaesthesia. A small opening is made in the skull to introduce the endoscope into the ventricular system. Using direct visualization, the surgeon creates a controlled opening in the floor of the third ventricle, allowing CSF to flow through the newly created pathway. After the procedure, patients are monitored for neurological changes, infection, bleeding, CSF leakage, and recurrence of hydrocephalus. Follow-up imaging may be performed to assess ventricular size and treatment response.
