These techniques, however, have important limitations and can result in significant postoperative complications. Here, the authors describe the novel use of a nontraditional neurosurgical device to aid in the resection of an intraventricular tumor.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>OBSERVATIONS<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>A 13-year-old male presented with obstructive hydrocephalus and a small intraventricular meningioma. Given the lesion\u2019s round shape, the authors expected it would be difficult to resect with conventional ventriculoscopic instruments. Hence, a basket retriever, designed for the removal of urological stones, was used in an endoscopic third ventriculostomy for obstructive hydrocephalus to capture and retract the tumor. Subsequently, the lesion was successfully resected and retrieved.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>LESSONS<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The use of a flexible helical basket retriever as both an ETV perforator and a stabilizing \u201ccage\u201d for a mobile, pedunculated angioblast meningioma enabled gross-total resection and long-term stability. The small size and maneuverability of this device were well suited to endoscopic use and may be useful for similar resections of small, mobile intraventricular lesions.<\/jats:p>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      <jats:ext-link xmlns:xlink=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/xlink\" ext-link-type=\"uri\" xlink:href=\"https:\/\/thejns.org\/doi\/10.3171\/CASE26283\">https:\/\/thejns.org\/doi\/10.3171\/CASE26283<\/jats:ext-link>\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.3171\/case26283","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,6,10]],"date-time":"2026-06-10T00:00:35Z","timestamp":1781049635000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Pure ventriculoscopic resection of an intraventricular meningioma with a basket retriever through a single burr hole: illustrative case"],"prefix":"10.3171","volume":"11","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0003-0668-2380","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Dongling","family":"Pei","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neurosurgery, Chinese PLA General Hospital First Medical Center, Beijing;"},{"name":"Department of Neurosurgery, the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University, Zhengzhou;"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"ShengKun","family":"Lang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neurosurgery, Chinese PLA General Hospital First Medical Center, Beijing;"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Shujing","family":"Yao","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neurosurgery, Chinese PLA General Hospital First Medical Center, Beijing;"},{"name":"Department of Neurosurgery, Chinese PLA General Hospital of Southern Theater Command, Guangzhou, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Rui","family":"Feng","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neurosurgery, Chinese PLA General Hospital First Medical Center, Beijing;"},{"name":"Department of Neurosurgery, Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, New York, New York"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-3146-8832","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Xinghua","family":"Xu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neurosurgery, Chinese PLA General Hospital First Medical Center, Beijing;"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-8573-1475","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Xiaolei","family":"Chen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neurosurgery, Chinese PLA General Hospital First Medical Center, Beijing;"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1754","reference":[{"issue":"3","key":"bib1","series-title":"Neurosurg Rev","first-page":"1227","article-title":"Endoscopic third ventriculostomy versus ventriculoperitoneal shunt in pediatric and adult population: a systematic review and meta-analysis","volume":"44","author":"Pande","year":"2021","unstructured":"Pande ALamba NMammi MEndoscopic third ventriculostomy versus ventriculoperitoneal shunt in pediatric and adult population: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
