Neuronavigation-guided endoscopic management of a pineal region tumour with obscured floor of the third ventricle: case report

Shunt surgery is frequently chosen to manage periventricular metastasis of pineal region tumors which obscured the floor of the third ventricle. However, this procedure falls short due to distant metastasis. Neuronavigation-guided endoscopic surgery offers a viable alternative. A 17 years old man be...
