Purpose!#!Neuroendoscopic procedures for treatment of term and preterm newborn infants, such as endoscopic lavage for posthemorrhagic hydrocephalus, are gaining popularity despite sparse data. This single-institution report compiles all neuroendoscopic surgical procedures performed in neonates during a 10-year period.!##!Methods!#!Charts and electronic records were reviewed of all consecutive newborns who underwent a neuroendoscopic procedure before reaching a postmenstrual age of 44 weeks between 09/2010 and 09/2020. Available documentation was reviewed regarding the performed neuroendoscopic procedure, course of disease, complications, and all re-operations throughout the first year of life.!##!Results!#!During the 10-year study period, 116 infants (median gestational age at birth: 29 !##!Conclusion!#!The experience with this large cohort of neonates demonstrates the feasibility of neuroendoscopic technique for the treatment of posthemorrhagic or postinfectious hydrocephalus. Rate and type of complications after neuroendoscopic procedures were within the expected range. Assessing the potential long-term benefits of neuroendoscopic techniques has to await results of ongoing studies.
