(A) Preoperative brain CT. (B,C) Postoperative brain CT with arrow indicating shunt tube. (D) Virtual reality graphics reconstructed using 3D Slicer before surgery. (E) 3D positioning guide plate virtual reality graphics. (F) Preoperative positioning based on 3D printing guide plate. (G) Minimally invasive incision, white triangle represents the “Cai’s point”, black arrow represents the puncture point in the triangle area, and white arrow represents the puncture point in the occipital angle. (H) In the lateral ventricle under neuroendoscope, the black arrow represents the choroid plexus, and the white arrow indicates the septum pellucidum structure. (I) Insertion of ventricular shunt tube under direct vision of neuroendoscopy. (J) Postoperative reconstruction of lateral ventricle and drainage tube with 3D Slicer. (K,L) Postoperative brain CTA.
