The term Neuroendoscopy refers to the use of a neuro-endoscope to examine the central nervous system as well as perform minimally invasive neurosurgical procedures. The navigation and usage of an endoscope through the highly intricate anatomy of the human central nervous system is a complex technique. Thus, this training module would encapsulate the intricacies of skull base and ventricular endoscopy techniques.

This module would help the neurosurgeons in achieving a better eye-hand co-ordination, and polishing their neuro-endoscopy techniques as well learn about new approaches to the ventricles, sella and skull base.

Skull Base Endoscopy

• Endoscopic anatomy of and approaches to sella and skull base
• Endoscopic endonasal pituitary/skullbase surgery

Ventricular Endoscopy

• Microscopic and endoscopic anatomy of and approaches to the ventricles
• Endoscopic third ventriculostomy for triventricular hydrocephalus
• Endoscopic treatment of intraventricular cyst/lesions
