    This study introduces an ultrasound-guided technique for ventricular taps, a procedure used for diagnosing or treating brain conditions. This novel method ensures safe and successful needle placement in children, minimizing procedural risks.

    Area of Science:

    • Neurosurgery
    • Pediatric Neurology
    • Medical Imaging

    Context:

    • Ventricular taps are invasive procedures with inherent risks.
    • Accurate needle placement is crucial for diagnostic and therapeutic efficacy.
    • Minimizing complications during neurosurgical interventions is paramount.

    Purpose:

    • To present a novel technique for echographically monitored ventricular taps.
    • To evaluate the safety and efficacy of ultrasound guidance in pediatric patients.
    • To reduce the risks associated with traditional ventricular puncture methods.

    Summary:

    • Fifteen ventricular taps were performed in five pediatric patients using real-time ultrasound guidance.
    • Needle placement was monitored using echography to ensure precision.
