Abstract
Despite modern progress in neuroradiology, central ventriculography with positive, water-soluble contrast media continues to be of great importance in the diagnosis of space-occupying or stenosing lesions of the midline structures, particularly of the midbrain, the oral and caudal brain stem, and the cerebellum, and in the planning and performing of the operative procedure (1, 3, 4, 8, 12).
