HYDROCEPHALUS
5
• Increased ventricular size due to increase in volume of CSF due to either
– Increased production
– Obstruction
– Impaired absorption
-
HYDROCEPHALUS
6
1. Obstructive type/non communicating
– Obstruction in ventricular system
2. Non obstructive/communicating
– Obliteration of subarachnoid cisterns or decreased absorption

CAUSES
8
– OBSTRUCTIVE TYPE
• CONGENITAL
– Aqueductal stenosis,
– Arnold Chiari malformation,
– Dandy walker malformation
– Spina bifida
– Vein of Galen aneurysm
-
CAUSES
9
• OBSTRUCTIVE TYPE

-
CAUSES
10
• COMMUNICATING TYPE
– DEFECTS IN SUBAROCHNOID SPACE
• Infections
– Congenital
– Meningitis (Pyogenic or tubercular)
• Hemorrhage
– Subarachnoid
– Trauma
-
CAUSES
11
• COMMUNICATING TYPE

• Overproduction – Choroid plexus papilloma
-
CAUSES
12
• COMMUNICATING TYPE
– DEFECT OF CSF ABSORPTION
• Congenital deficiency of Arachnoid Granulation

PATHOPHYSIOLOGY
13
Obstruction to CSF flow
Reversal of ventricular fluid into periventricular white
matter
Demyelination and progressive gliosis
Damage to periventricular white matter and later gray matter
