Abstract: Third ventriculostomy is the preferred treatment for obstructive hydrocephalus, but the biomechanics of brain tissue damage caused by fiber endoscopes remains unclear. In this study, brain tissue material parameters were tested based on the Ogden model to simulate needle puncture mechanics, and replicated the entire fiber endoscope advancement process during third ventriculostomy. It was found that a smaller diameter fiber endoscope, a perpendicular puncture angle, and a faster puncture speed would decrease the damage of brain tissue caused by the fiber endoscope. This study provides valuable insights for optimizing the instrumentation and surgical process of third ventriculostomy.
