Abstract

In this study, 47 adult patients with hydrocephalus reviewed retrospectively in our clinic. Aetiological features and its effects to prognosis were evaluated. As causes of hydrocephalus; brain tumours in 12 cases, subarachnoid hemorrhage in 11 cases, normal pressure hydrocephalus seven cases, infections in four cases, cerebellar infarct in three cases and cerebellar hemorrhage in one case were found, if in fourteen cases (29.7 %), it was detected that cerebrovascular diseases responded for hydrocephalus. The results were discussed in light of the literature and emphasized that cerebrovascular disease importance in aetiology of hydrocephalus developed in adulthood.

Özet

Bu çalışmada kliniğimizde hidrosefali saptanan 47 erişkin olgu retrospektif olarak gözden geçirildi. Etyolojik özellikleri ve bunların prognoza etkileri değerlendirildi. Hidrosefali nedeni olarak oniki olguda tümör, onbir olguda subraknoid kanama, dokuz olguda ventriküle açılmış intraserebral kanama, yedi olguda normal basınçlı hidrosefali, dört olguda geçirilmiş infeksiyon, üç olguda serebellar enfarkt ve bir olguda serebellar hematom belirlendi. Ondört olguda (% 29.7) ise, serebrovasküler hastalıkların hidrosefaliden sorumlu olduğu görüldü. Sonuçlar literatür ışığında tartışıldı ve serebrovasküler hastalıkların erişkin dönemde gelişen hidrosefali etyolojisindeki önemi vurgulandı.
