Abstract
- A case with shunt dependent hydrocephalus, which had normal ventricular size despite marked increased in ventricular pressure after shunt malfunction was observed. This case of normal volume hydrocephalus had distal shunt occlusion. Prolonged shunt dependency and obstruction of shunting tube were factors in this condition. Acute developed symptom of increased intracranial pressure with normal size ventricle with elevated pressure is a threatening clinical entity requiring prompt shunt revision procedure.
