A clinical and biochemical analysis in the differential diagnosis of idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus [PDF]

, 2015
Idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus (iNPH) can be misdiagnosed with other neurodegenerative diseases, especially in the early disease stages. Considering the opportunity of the shunt surgery, iNPH should be diagnosed with accuracy. Here, we evaluate

Characteristics of Postural Instability in Idiopathic Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus

Neurology and Therapy
Introduction In patients with idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus (iNPH), the characteristics of static steady-state balance disturbance are not as well understood as those related to gait.

The Dutch Normal-Pressure Hydrocephalus Study [PDF]

, 1999
In 1965 Hakim and Adams described 6 patients with a mild impairment of the memory, slowness and paucity of thought and action, unsteadiness of gait and unwitling urinary incontinence.' These symptoms had evolved over a period of weeks or a few months.

Aqueductal CSF Stroke Volume Is Increased in Patients with Idiopathic Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus and Decreases after Shunt Surgery

, 2019
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Increased CSF stroke volume through the cerebral aqueduct has been proposed as a possible indicator of positive surgical outcome in patients with idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus; however, consensus is lacking.

Clinical characteristics and outcomes after shunt surgery in idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus with or without prior cerebrospinal fluid tap testing: a single-center follow-up study of 481 patients

Fluids and Barriers of the CNS
Background The cerebrospinal fluid tap test (CSF TT) is a commonly used predictive test for selecting patients with idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus (iNPH) for shunt surgery, but low sensitivity rate carries the risk of excluding individuals from

Distinct cerebral cortical microstructural changes in idiopathic normal-pressure hydrocephalus

Frontiers in Neurology
ObjectiveThe aims of the study were to investigate differences in cortical mean diffusivity (MD) among idiopathic normal-pressure hydrocephalus (INPH) patients, Alzheimer’s disease (AD) patients, and healthy controls, and to analyze mean MD among INPH ...

The CSF lipid profile in patients with probable idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus differs from control but does not differ between shunt responders and non-responders

Idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus is a common form of hydrocephalus in the elderly, characterized by enlarged ventricles combined with clinical symptoms presenting as gait impairment, urinary incontinence, and dementia.
