The Neurobiology of Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus
Neurosurgery Clinics of North America, 1993Normal pressure hydrocephalus (NPH) is an intriguing problem in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and brain parenchymal physiology. This article presents what is known about its pathophysiology as well as its clinical presentation and treatment.

Idiopathic Normal-Pressure Hydrocephalus
Journal of Neurosurgery, 2006Object. The diagnosis and management of idiopathic normal-pressure hydrocephalus (NPH) remains controversial, particularly in selecting patients for shunt insertion. The use of clinical criteria coupled with imaging studies has limited effectiveness in predicting shunt success. The goal of this prospective study was to assess the usefulness of clinical

Acta Pathologica Japonica, 1987
The pathological changes in the brains of seven patients who had been clinically diagnosed as normal pressure hydrocephalus (NPH) are described and the possible etiological mechanisms are discussed. The pathological findings in all cases consisted of demyelination akin to Binswanger's type of encephalopathy, especially in the frontal lobes ...

Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus in the Newborn
Pediatrics, 1981The entity of normal pressure hydrocephalus (NPH) following intraventricular hemorrhage in the newborn has been characterized. Of 87 infants with intraventricular hemorrhage, 20 had early and rapidly progressive hydrocephalus with intracranial hypertension and/or death.

Diagnosis of Normal-Pressure Hydrocephalus
New England Journal of Medicine, 1970Abstract When normal-pressure hydrocephalus is suspected on the basis of clinical findings, the diagnosis can be confirmed by use of intrathecal radioisotope scans and pneumoencephalographic findings. The pneumoencephalographic studies clearly outline the ventricular space and provide evidence of the presence or absence of obstructive hydrocephalus ...

The syndrome of normal-pressure hydrocephalus
Journal of Neurosurgery, 1984✓ A series of 40 patients with the syndrome of normal-pressure hydrocephalus is presented. Diagnosis was based on clinical and computerized tomography (CT) scan criteria and was followed by the insertion of a ventriculoperitoneal shunt in every instance.

The EEG in normal pressure hydrocephalus
Acta Neurochirurgica, 1976Fourteen patients with NPH were studied with special reference to associated EEG changes, one case being reported in detail. In 13 cases the EEG was abnormal, the abnormality most frequently observed being a of the rhythmic slow wave type, consisting of bursts of monorhythmic theta or delta waves seen in both hemispheres.

Syphilitic normal pressure hydrocephalus
Acta Neurochirurgica, 1979We report a case of presenile dementia with radiological and cisternographical features suggesting normal pressure hydrocephalus, caused by syphilitic infection. Treatment with penicillin resulted in considerable regression of the neurological and psychological signs.
