    Single burr-hole pure ventriculoscopic resection is a safe and effective method for removing small solid intraventricular lesions.

  • 2

    Gross-total resection was achieved in 92.1% of cases without significant complications or mortality.

  • 3

    Postoperative follow-up showed no lesion recurrence and only one case of delayed hydrocephalus successfully treated endoscopically.

  • 4

    Transient diplopia occurred in 5.3% of patients, while one patient experienced an intracranial infection.

  • 5

    Preoperative virtual planning using high-resolution MRI improved surgical accuracy and minimized risks associated with traditional approaches.
