Observations on the Pathology of Hydrocephalus
Open accessAbstract
This well illustrated, brief monograph is, according to this reviewer, the best treatment to date of the subject of hydrocephalus, with excellent discussions of the pathogenesis of this condition. The author points out that hydrocephalus is always due to a single cause, that of obstruction. Such obstruction may be caused by a congenitally malformed aqueduct, by atresia following inflammatory conditions, by periaqueductal gliosis, by variations in the Arnold-Chiari malformation or by tumors. The author feels that the term "idiopathic" is not justified in hydrocephalus. Of course, obstruction in the absorptive mechanism, the subarachnoid villi, may be one of the causes of hydrocephalus. It is truly a form of obstruction.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
