Microsurgical Treatment of Colloid Cysts of the Third Ventricle

Highlights • The transcallosal approach allows for a radical third ventricle colloid cyst resection with a minimal complication rate. • The supracerebellar infratentorial approach helpful when hydrocephalus is absent, and when the CC is localized posteriorly. • Memory disorders are among typical clinical manifestations of colloid cysts of the third ventricle observed both before surgery and in the immediate postoperative period
