title: The effect of increased intracranial pressure on pressure in the superior sagittal sinus.
abstract: It is difficult to explain why rises in ICP provoke different types of response in superior sagittal sinus pressure. In most of our experimental animals there was close correlation between rises in ICP and SSSP. In the remainder, SSSP showed little increase when ICP rose. The animals with marked increase in SSSP showed a greater capacity for compensation for increased amounts of intracranial fluid.
