Revisiting secondary normal pressure hydrocephalus: does it exist? A review.
CONCLUSIONS Secondary NPH encompasses a diverse group of clinical manifestations associated with a subset of patients with acquired hydrocephalus. The most common etiologies of sNPH include SAH and traumatic brain injury. Secondary NPH does indeed exist, and should be differentiated from idiopathic NPH based on outcome and on clinical, pathophysiological, and epidemiological characteristics, but should not be considered as a separate entity.

Hydrocephalus associated with childhood nonaccidental head trauma.

Successful weaning versus permanent cerebrospinal fluid diversion after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage: post hoc analysis of a Swiss multicenter study
CONCLUSIONS: These results show a temporary but clinically meaningful cognitive benefit in the first weeks after aSAH in successfully weaned patients. The resolution of this difference over time may be due to the positive effects of permanent CSF diversion and underlines its importance. Patients who do not show progressive neuropsychological improvement after weaning should be considered for repeat CT imaging to rule out chronic (untreated) hydrocephalus.PMID:37004134 | DOI:10.3171/2023.1.FOCUS22638
