Özet

Normal basınçlı hidrosefali (NBH) sıklıkla psikiyatrik bulgular sergiler. Obsesif kompulsif bozukluk (OKB) ve NBH komorbiditesi nadirdir ve bu konuda birkaç olgu bildirimi bulunmaktadır. Olgumuz intrakraniyal kanamaya sekonder kronik NBH gelişen ve epilepsi tanısı ile nöroloji servisinde yatışı sırasında obsesif kompulsif (OK) belirtiler sergileyen bir olgudur. Sertralin ve ketiapin tedavisinden fayda görmüştür. Kronik NBH, OK belirtiler komorbiditesi açısından ülkemizde ilk vaka olduğu düşünülmektedir.
