Perioperative complications of intraventricular neuroendoscopy.

I read with interest the paper entitled, “Perioperative complications of intraventricular neuroendoscopy: a 7-year experience” by Ganjoo et al (3). They reviewed perioperative complications in patients who had undergone elective neuroendoscopic surgery. The intraoperative complications were as follows: tachycardia, bradycardia, hypertension and bleeding. Hypothermia, delayed awakening and electrolyte imbalance were encountered in the early postoperative period.
