aqueductal stenosis मीनिंग इन हिंदी

Ultrasonography can be used in utero to diagnose aqueductal stenosis by showing dilation of the lateral and third ventricles.
If the procedure does not successfully cure the aqueductal stenosis, a second surgery can be performed to enlarge the incision or implant a shunt.
Signs of aqueductal stenosis other than those mentioned in Causes of stenosis include detection of an enlarged lateral and third ventricle in conjunction with a smaller fourth ventricle.
Patients under the age of two, diagnosed with aqueductal stenosis without a history of preterm birth or other associated brain anomalies are being included ( International Infant Hydrocephalus Study ).
An alternative treatment for obstructive hydrocephalus in selected patients is the endoscopic third ventriculostomy ( ETV ), whereby a surgically created opening in the floor of the third ventricle allows the CSF to flow directly to the basal cisterns, thereby shortcutting any obstruction, as in aqueductal stenosis.
