Resumo: OBJECTIVE: Unilateral hydrocephalus (UH) is characterized by enlargement of just one lateral ventricle. In this paper, the authors will demonstrate their experiences in the neuroendoscopic management of this uncommon type of hydrocephalus. METHOD: The authors retrospectively reviewed a serie of almost 800 neuroendoscopic procedures performed from September 1995 to July 2010 and selected seven adult patients with UH. Clinical and radiological charts were reviewed and analyzed. RESULTS: Six patients had intraventricular neurocysticercosis and one patient had congenital stenosis of the foramen of Monro. Headaches were the most common symptom. A septostomy restored cerebrospinal fluid circulation. During follow-up period (65.5 months, range 3-109) no patient has presented clinical recurrence as well as no severe complications have been observed. CONCLUSION: UH is a rare condition. A successful treatment can be accomplished through a neuroendoscopic approach avoiding the use of ventricular shunts.

Neste estudo, os autores demonstraram sua experiência no manejo deste tipo incomum de hidrocefalia. MÉTODO: Foram revisados, de uma série de quase 800 cirurgias neuroendoscópicas realizadas entre Setembro de 1995 e Julho de 2010, sete pacientes adultos com diagnóstico de HU. Dados clínicos e radiológicos foram analisados. RESULTADOS: Seis pacientes tinham neurocisticercose intraventricular e um apresentava uma estenose congênita do forame de Monro. Cefaléia foi o sintoma clínico mais comum. Uma septostomia restabeleceu o fluxo liquórico. Durante o seguimento (65,5 meses, de 3-109), nenhum paciente apresentou recorrência clínica assim como nenhuma complicação grave foi observada. CONCLUSÃO: HU é uma condição rara. O tratamento satisfatório pode ser alcançado por meio de uma abordagem neuroendoscópica evitando, desta maneira, o uso de sistemas de derivação ventricular.Federal University of São Paulo Division of Neurosurgery Department of Neurology and NeurosurgeryUNIFESP, Division of Neurosurgery Department of Neurology and NeurosurgerySciELOAcademia Brasileira de Neurologia - ABNEUROUniversidade Federal de São Paulo (UNIFESP)Vaz-guimarães Filho, Francisco A.
