IVH is a safe and effective variation of the vertical approaches for hemispheric disconnection. It allows a good exposure and anatomic control of the corpus callosum, which is a frequent site of incomplete disconnection. IVH may be limited by the thalamic volume and the ventricular size, notably in hemimegalencephaly cases.
