Decompensated chronic congenital hydrocephalus.
A 66 year-old woman with congenital macro cephaly and developmental delay presented with aphasia and right-sided weakness. Head CT revealed severe hydrocephalus of the lateral and third ventricles with a normal fourth ventricle due to a chronic congenital process (Fig. 1A). MRI confirmed subacute embolic infarcts of the left middle cerebral artery territory (Fig. 1B) and a heparin drip was init...
متن کاملExternal hydrocephalus. Early finding in congenital communicating hydrocephalus.
Dilation of the subarachnoid channels overlying the cerebral hemispheres, ie, external hydrocephalus, can be an early anatomic-radiologic finding in some infants with congenital communicating hydrocephalus. This structural change may progress to ventricular dilation or internal hydrocephalus. Enlargement of the subarachnoid channels appears to occur during the first stage in the development of ...
متن کاملCongenital hydrocephalus--analysis of 49 cases.
The causes of congenital hydrocephalus vary widely and have an important effect in determining the future counseling of affected cases. We analyzed the postmortem findings of 49 autopsies diagnosed as hydrocephalus to find the causes and related conditions. The cases were collected during the last 10 years (1981-1990). The cases consisted of 25 cases associated with various congenital malformat...
متن کاملCongenital hydrocephalus in genetically engineered mice.
There is evidence that genetic factors play a role in the complex multifactorial pathogenesis of hydrocephalus. Identification of the genes involved in the development of this neurologic disorder in animal models may elucidate factors responsible for the excessive accumulation of cerebrospinal fluid in hydrocephalic humans. The authors report here a brief summary of findings from 12 lines of ge...
متن کاملCerebrospinal fluid biomarkers of infantile congenital hydrocephalus
INTRODUCTION Hydrocephalus is a complex neurological disorder with a pervasive impact on the central nervous system. Previous work has demonstrated derangements in the biochemical profile of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) in hydrocephalus, particularly in infants and children, in whom neurodevelopment is progressing in parallel with concomitant neurological injury. The objective of this study was to...
