58% of Intraventricular ependymoma originate in the fourth ventricle, while the other 42% are located in the lateral and third ventricles ¹⁾

The most consistent neurological problem associated with lateral ventricle tumors, including ependymomas, is cognitive impairment associated with hydrocephalus.

If the tumor is present at a critical site for CSF flow, acute obstructive hydrocephalus and sudden death may occur.
