Idiopathic Normal-Pressure Hydrocephalus

open access: yesJournal of Neurosurgery, 2006
Object. 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

Noninvasive assessment of glymphatic dysfunction in idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus with diffusion tensor imaging.

Journal of Neurosurgery, 2023
OBJECTIVE Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) along the perivascular space (ALPS) (DTI-ALPS)-by calculating the ALPS index, a ratio accentuating water diffusion in the perivascular space-has been proposed as a noninvasive, indirect MRI method for assessing ...

A role for mutations in AK9 and other genes affecting ependymal cells in idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2023
Significance Idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus (iNPH) is characterized by ventriculomegaly, imbalance, incontinence, and dementia, but the causes are poorly understood. We previously reported that CWH43 deletions may cause iNPH.

Frequency of Idiopathic Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus

Archives of Neurology, 1989
To the Editor. —To our knowledge, epidemiologic studies concerning the incidence and prevalence of idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus (INPH) are not available and estimates of its frequency vary widely. The small amount of available data always refer to selected samples (most of all demented populations) and show frequencies ranging from 1% 1,2 ...

Idiopathic Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus

Tijdschrift voor psychiatrie, 2018
Hydrocephalus is characterized by overaccumulation of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) within the cerebral ventricles due to a mismatch between CSF production and CSF resorption into systemic circulation [1]. While many forms of hydrocephalus are associated with raised intracranial pressure (ICP) [2, 3], some patients have clinical and radiologic signs of ...

Long-Term Efficacy of Shunt Therapy in Idiopathic Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus

open access: yesWorld Neurosurgery, 2019
Background: Idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus (iNPH) is one of the very few treatable types of dementia. Shunt therapy has been shown to be effective in improving symptoms.
