At VM Medical Park Samsun Hospital, Endoscopic Third Ventriculostomy is performed using specialised neuroendoscopic techniques and comprehensive neurological and imaging assessment. Established in 2017, this JCI accredited hospital in Samsun, Turkey has 300 beds and offers advanced neurosurgical, neuroimaging, and neurocritical care services.

Endoscopic Third Ventriculostomy may be considered for selected patients with obstructive hydrocephalus, particularly when cerebrospinal fluid flow is blocked within or near the ventricular system. During the procedure, a small endoscope is guided into the third ventricle, where the neurosurgeon creates an opening in its floor to allow CSF to bypass the obstruction. Preoperative MRI and other imaging studies help assess ventricular anatomy and determine whether the procedure is appropriate.
