Acute non-communicating hydrocephalus after spontaneous subarachnoid haemorrhage

G Hildebrandt et al. Acta Neurochir (Wien). 1985.

Abstract

Five patients, who developed progressive neurological deterioration within hours due to subarachnoid haemorrhage (SAH) are reported. The computertomographic (CT) appearance of a noncommunicating hydrocephalus (n.c.h.) was a unique feature in 4 cases. CT during the early phase of neurological deterioration after SAH permits the differentiation between an ischaemic, an oedematous, a haemorrhagic-compressive lesion and an increase in intracranial pressure (ICP) due to n.c.h.
