Benign external hydrocephalus

Benign external hydrocephalus
Benign external hydrocephalusbenign enlargement of subarachnoid spaces in infancy
Etiology:• Immature arachnoid granulations.C.P:• Macrocephaly.• Normal developmental milestones.
1. Widening of the bifrontal subarachnoid space and anterior interhemispheric fissure (>5mm).
2. Usually normal subaracnoid space posteriorly.3. No flattening of adjacent gyri.4. The anterior fontanelle is frequently enlarged.5. The ventricular system is within normal limits or slightly dilated.6. There are no pressure effects on the surrounding brain tissue
or cerebral atrophy.7. No blood products on MRI study.8. another key distinction between benign enlargement of the
subarachnoid spaces and a subdural fluid collection is that in the former the cortical veins will be adjacent to the inner table of the calvarium on MR and ultrasound; whereas in the latter the veins are displaced away from the inner table, as the arachnoid membrane and subarachnoid space are displaced.

External hydrocephalus vs subdural hematoma
Hydrocephalus versus atrophyFeatures that favor hydrocephalus• Dilatation of the temporal horns• Peri-ventricular interstitial oedema . • intra-ventricular flow void from CSF movement on MR • Widening of the third ventricular recesses : mid sagittal plane • Upward bowing of the corpus callosum : mid sagittal plane• Decreased mammillo-pontine distance : mid sagittal plane
Mid-sagittal findings of hydrocephalus
• Widening of the third ventricular recesses.
• Upward bowing of the corpus callosum.
• Decreased mammillo-pontine distance .
