The study of cerebrospinal fluid dynamics in apparently 'arrested' hydrocephalus in children

C Di Rocco et al. Childs Brain. 1977.

Abstract

18 children having hydrocephalus, which could be regarded clinically as 'arrested', underwent cerebral angiography and a constant infusion manometric test. Intracranial pressure was directly recorded in 3 cases. The above examinations indicated that hydrocephalus was still 'active' in 8 children. This was confirmed by the good results of the surgical treatment.
