Spectral Domain-Optical Coherence Tomography As a New Diagnostic Marker for Idiopathic Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus
PURPOSE Characterized by a progressive onset of gait disturbances, dementia, and urinary incontinence, idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus (iNPH) is considered a rare, but under-diagnosed disease. Non-invasive diagnostic markers are still insufficient to enable the diagnosis of iNPH with certainty and yet early treatment with ventriculoperitoneal (VP) shunting can reverse symptoms and stop...
متن کاملTreatment of Idiopathic Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus by Persian Medicine: A Case Report
Idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus (iNPH) is a chronic disease in adults. The standard treatment in this type of hydrocephalus is shunting which is accompanied by some complications and there is also uncertainty about response to treatment. Therefore, surgery is performed in only 10-20% of the cases with iNPH. Currently, oral acetazolamide and repetitive lumbar puncture for drainage of th...
متن کاملArterial blood pressure vs intracranial pressure in normal pressure hydrocephalus.
OBJECTIVE To characterize the association between arterial blood pressure (ABP) and intracranial pressure (ICP) in idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus (iNPH) patients, and its impact on outcome of shunt surgery. MATERIALS AND METHODS We analyzed all 35 iNPH patients whose ABP and ICP were recorded simultaneously during 6 years (2002-2007). The static and pulsatile pressures were averaged...
متن کاملNormal Pressure Hydrocephalus Presentation with a Large Pseudomeningocele
Background and Importance: This interesting case is about the presence of normal pressure hydrocephalus and a large pseudomeningocele at the same time after 13 months of posterior fossa surgery. Although the occurrence of a pseudomeningocele following posterior fossa surgery is not so rare, such a late large pseudomeningocele development with signs and symptoms of NPH after 13 months of surgery...
متن کاملNormal pressure hydrocephalus presenting as Parkinson's syndrome.
Although extrapyramidal features in normal pressure hydrocephalus (NPH) are not uncommon, presentations with Parkinson's syndrome as the predominant feature are rare and may give rise to diagnostic difficulties. Failure of patients with parkinsonism to respond to therapy, should alert one to the possibility of NPH.
