Normal pressure hydrocephalus presenting as delusional disorder.

Shruti Srivastava1, Manjeet Singh Bhatia1, Priyanka Gautam1.   

Abstract

Normal pressure hydrocephalus (NPH) is caused by aqueductal stenosis resulting in syndrome of gait disturbance, cognitive impairment, and urinary incontinence. Late onset psychosis should be evaluated thoroughly to rule out any organic cause. We present the case of a female patient presenting with delusions, gait disturbances, urinary incontinence in her 50s.
