A Danish family with seven males with hydrocephalus in three generations is described. Frequent findings in this x-linked recessive form of the disease are irregular cranium, asymmetrical face, thumb held across palm, spasticity of the legs and paradoxical plantar responses. The literature on this mode of inheritance is reviewed.Entities:
