Abstract
- We report the case histories of three sisters with congenital hydrocephalus associated with stenosis of the cerebral aqueduct. The parents were a young consanguineous couple. In two cases hydrocephalus was detected before birth by ultrasonography. We consider these three cases to be of the rare autosomal form of hereditary hydrocephalus.
