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

see Lateral ventricle ependymoma.

see Third ventricular ependymoma.

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.
