Abstract
- <span class="AbstractHeading">Abstract</span><div class="AbstractSection"><div class=""><span class="AbstractSectionHeading"><a name="ASec1"></a>Objects  </span>Microsurgical resection, stereotactic aspiration and VP shunt have for years been the choice options for the treatment of colloid cysts of the third ventricle. Recently, endoscopic approaches have aroused increasing interest and gained acceptance. Although safer, this minimally invasive approach is considered less efficacious than microsurgery. Relatively long-term results are now available and some conclusions might be inferred on the usefulness of this procedure. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
