OBJECTIVE Adverse events related to shunt surgery are common and might have a negative effect on outcome in patients with idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus (INPH). The authors' objectives were to establish the frequencies of epilepsy, headache, and abdominal pain and determine their impact on
We present a case report of a 41-year-old man with an acute headache and hydrocephalus caused by the dermoid cyst. The dermoid cyst of the third brain ventricle caused an acute hydrocephalus and an increased intracranial pressure (with neurological signs such as nausea, vomiting, oedema papilae n.
A 29-year-old male presented to our emergency department with complaints of a left frontal headache, similar to his prior headaches. He also reported about 30 minutes of facial and tongue numbness, left arm weakness, slurred speech and changes in hearing that had resolved prior to his arrival.
A 76 year old patient with a long history of headaches was found to have Paget's disease and communicating hydrocephalus. There were (otherwise) no neurological or musculo-skeletal manifestations of Paget's disease, but moderate impairment of intellectual function was present. Treatment with
Thunderclap headache is well known to be a presenting feature of a variety of causal events. Indeed, a primary form is considered in the International Classification of Headache Disorders-II, but such diagnosis must be made only after exclusion of a possible secondary cause. We report a case of
OBJECTIVE

BACKGROUND
Pineal cysts (PCs) are histologically benign lesions of the pineal gland. Although the majority of PCs are asymptomatic, some cases are ambiguous and accompanied by non-specific symptoms of variable severity. We suggested that disabling headache in non-hydrocephalic patients with PCs is
Report of chronic headache amongst children with shunted hydrocephalus is frequent, and often leads to investigation for raised intra-cranial pressure and shunt malfunction, and much debate has appeared in the literature concerning possible cause. However headache is a common neurological symptom
We describe a patient with a recurrent spinal cord ependymoma who initially presented with symptoms of increased intracranial pressure rather than symptoms directly relating to involvement of the conus medullaris. Brain magnetic resonance imaging with gadolinium showed communicating hydrocephalus.

This is a young lady who presented with sudden onset headache. She attended a local clinic and also her area hospital. Her diagnosis was
Lateral intraventricular tumors are not frequently observed. Since these tumors grow linearly rather than exponentially, they grow gradually and thus do not cause mass effects and hydrocephalus. This study is the case report of a rare great volume left intraventricular epidermoid cyst rupture. The
