Journal club: role of endoscopic third ventriculostomy and ventriculoperitoneal shunt in idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus: preliminary results of a randomized clinical trial. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
1. Significance/Context and Importance of the Study: Idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus (INPH) was first defined by Hakim and colleagues in 19651, and its symptoms later classified by the clinical triad of gait dysfunction, urinary incontinence ...

Reduced risk of shunt revision with adjustable valves: a population-based cohort study over three decades

open access: yesActa Neurochirurgica
Background Idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus (iNPH) is a neurological disease characterized by ventriculomegaly and Hakim’s triad. At present, symptoms can be alleviated only by cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) shunt surgery.

Finite element analysis for normal pressure hydrocephalus: The effects of the integration of sulci. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Finite element analysis (FEA) is increasingly used to investigate the brain under various pathological changes. Although FEA has been used to study hydrocephalus for decades, previous studies have primarily focused on ventriculomegaly.

Gait Analysis of Idiopathic Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus

open access: yesJournal of UOEH, 2002
Normal pressure hydrocephalus (NPH) is a clinical syndrome associated with dementia, gait disturbance and urinary incontinence. Gait disturbance is usually the initial sign and most important symptom, but its objective evaluation has not been established.

MR diffusion changes in the perimeter of the lateral ventricles demonstrate periventricular injury in post-hemorrhagic hydrocephalus of prematurity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
OBJECTIVES: Injury to the preterm lateral ventricular perimeter (LVP), which contains the neural stem cells responsible for brain development, may contribute to the neurological sequelae of intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) and post-hemorrhagic ...

Neuropsychological profile of young adults with spina bifida with or without hydrocephalus [PDF]

open access: yes
Objectives: To determine the relative impact of hydrocephalus and spinal dysraphism in young adults on intellectual and cognitive functioning. Sub-groups of patients with congenital hydrocephalus and/or spina bifida were assessed between 1995 and 2003.
