Report on 21 patients with the syndrome of normal pressure hydrocephalus. All patients were treated by implantation of a shunt-system (ventriculo-atrial shunt). ⋯ The prognosis depends upon the etiology and the duration of the disease. The best results can be expected in cases of normal pressure hydrocephalus following subarachnoid hemorrhage.
