(B1–B3): Preoperative brain MRI showed space occupying lesions in the right thalamus. (B4): Preoperative brain CT showed space occupying lesions in the right thalamus. (B5–B6): 3D-Slicer reconstructed the relationship between the lesion and lateral ventricle and positioned the three-dimensional image of the guide plate. (B7–B8): 3D printing positioning guide. B9: The straight surgical incision (white arrow) is designed according to the printed positioning guide plate, and the black arrow is the conventional surgical incision. (B10): Lesions under transcranial neuroendoscopic. (B11): Postoperative brain CT showed that the lesion was resected completely. (B12): The three-dimensional reconstruction of the skull showed that the size of the bone window was about 3.5 cm.
