Brain computed tomograpy is particularly accurate in defining cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) space because of the relatively great density difference between CSF and brain parenchyma. This noninvasive procedure has very quickly become definitive in the diagnosis of hydrocephalus. However, while the typical clinical and radiological picture of a hydrocephalic patient leaves no doubt as to the need for adequate surgical treatment.... |

The double compartment hydrocephalus is now recognized as a clinical entity needing early
diagnosis and treatment. By definition, the concept of double compartment hydrocephalus indicates
seperate and individually progressing, usually sequential, hydrocephalus of the supratentorial and
infratentorial CSF ventricles. In most instances, this entity consists of supratentorial hydrocephalus
of the third and lateral ventricles (as a result of aqueductal stenosis) that has been treated... |
