External validation of the ETV success score in 313 pediatric patients: a Brazilian single-center study.

Abstract:

:The endoscopic third ventriculostomy (ETV) success score (ETVSS) was developed to predict the success rate of ETV at 6 months. In this study, the authors assessed the performance of this score for > 6 months, i.e., at 12 months, and provided external validation in Brazilian children. All children undergoing first ETV (without choroid plexus cauterization) at a Brazilian single institution for > 20 years were included in the study. The ETVSS was retrospectively calculated for each patient and compared with the actual success of the procedure observed at 6 and 12 months after the procedure. A total of 313 eligible children underwent initial ETV, 34.18% of whom had undergone shunt placement before ETV. The most common etiologies were aqueductal stenosis (45%) and non-tectal brain tumors (20.8%). ETV was successful at 6 months in 229 patients (73.16%) compared with the 61.3% predicted by the ETVSS. The overall actual success rate observed at 1 year after ETV was 65.1% (204 patients). The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve was 0.660 at 6 months and 0.668 at 1 year, which suggested a tendency for the ETVSS to underestimate the actual success rate of ETV at both timepoints. The ETVSS showed good success prediction in accordance with the actual ETV success rate and proved to be useful during the decision-making process of ETV.
