Between December 1979 and September 1986, 11 patients with colloid cysts of the third ventricle were operated on by a stereotactic procedure with Talairach's system. Stereoscopic angiography and ventriculographic study allowed for a percutaneous (twist-drill hole diameter: 2.5 mm) stereotactic aspiration of the cysts. The operations were successful, and there were no intraoperative or postoperative mortalities but just mild transient morbidity in three cases. Six cysts were evacuated completely, and five only partially. The mean residual volume was 19% of the initial one. Clinical and anatomical results are presented, and the advantages of this stereotactic procedure are discussed.
