Abstract

“Endoscope”; It is a word of Greek origin, formed by the combination of the words “endo” meaning inside, inside and “skope” meaning seeing and viewing. In the field of neurosurgery, the endoscope was first used in the treatment of intraventricular pathologies and hydrocephalus. The neuroendoscope, which fell off the agenda due to unsuccessful surgical interventions, was later reintroduced to assist microsurgery.
