[Diagnosis of hydrocephalus. Changes in visual evoked potentials in children with progressive hydrocephalus internus].
Visual evoked potentials (VEP) of 12 children with progressive hydrocephalus internus were studied. Depending on the severity of hydrocephalus internus VEP show remarkable changes. First of deformation of VEP occurs, than a slowing of latencies and finally an extreme increase of latencies combined with a further deformation of VEP. The whole duration of the VEP shows a marked prolongation.
