ENDOSCOPIC THIRD VENTRICULOSTOMY IN THE TREATMENT OF NORMOTENSIVE HYDROCEPHALUS. A CLINICAL CASE
Introduction. Normotensive hydrocephalus is an abnormal accumulation of cerebrospinal fluid in the ventricles of the brain. This causes an increase in the enlargement of the ventricles and an increase in intracranial pressure.
