Abstract

Hydrocephalus constitutes one of the most common complications of tuberculous meningitis. Twenty-six cases of tuberculous meningitis in children are reported. The authors analyze the clinical features, CT scan findings, and clinical evolution. The criteria for and results of the use of cerebrospinal fluid shunts are reviewed.
