Abstract:
This is a case of an adult patient with hypertensive intraventricular haemorrhages complicated by
hydrocephalus that failed to respond to endoscopic third ventriculostomy (ETV). High-resolution
3D Fast Imaging Employing Steady State Acquisition (FIESTA) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)
revealed underlying multiloculated hydrocephalus. This case report highlights the appropriate sequence
and its attributes that offer adequate preoperative information detailing the ventricular system.
