Spontaneous Ventricular Rupture in Hydrocephalus, with Subtentorial Cyst Formation.
The anatomical features of hydrocephalus are fairly well known, and a growing knowledge of the pathology suggests that in most if not all cases the ventricular dilatation can be explained by obstruction to the circulation of the cerebro-spinal fluid. It is not always easy to identify the site or cause of the obstruction, but a common place is in the narrows of the midbrain where the aqueduct ma...
متن کاملSupratentorial arachnoidal cyst associated with hydrocephalus.
Supratentorial arachnoidal cysts are usually associated with signs of fracture of the skull but hydrocephalus has not been reported in connexion with such cysts.

A 3-year-old child was recently seen with signs of hydrocephalus and a large arachnoidal cyst of the right cerebral hemisphere. The rarity of ...
متن کاملFourth Ventricle Choroid Plexus Xanthogranuloma Causing Hydrocephalus.
Xanthogranulomas of the choroid plexus are discovered incidentally on autopsy in 1.6 to 7% of cases, and are typically found in the lateral ventricles. Very rarely, however, they can become symptomatic because of obstruction of the ventricular system, and these tend to be found in the third ventricle. There has only been one published case of fourth ventricle choroid plexus xanthogranuloma. We ...
متن کاملResolution of Acute Hydrocephalus and Migration of Neurocysticercosis Cyst with External Ventricular Drainage
Neurocysticercosis is endemic in the developing world, but is becoming more common in the US due to immigration. A 24-year-old man presented with acute hydrocephalus and headaches, nausea, and vomiting. Head CT revealed a 3rd ventricular cyst and immunological studies were suggestive of neurocysticercosis. EVD placement resulted in migration of the cyst interiorly and superiorly with return of ...
