Endocrinological disorders in shunted hydrocephalus.

G Kaiser1, A Ruedeberg, M Arnold.   

Abstract

Endocrinological findings were identified in 60% of 90 shunted patients with an isolated hydrocephalus, namely dwarfism in one third and abnormal proportions, obesity, sexual precocity and various combinations in 9-15%. Different causes of these findings were observed. But none of the cases had a malfunction of the shunt at the time of this study.
