Abstract

Three cases of disturbed cerebrospinal fluid circulation with the resulting picture of a hydrocephalus, treated by surgery, are described. The operations performed were modified Spitz-Holter twice and Torkildsen's shunt operation once. Both the modifications are described in brief. Two of the cases were suicides, the third perhaps an accidental drowning.
