We used high performance liquid chromatography to determine the concentration of purine metabolites in the cerebrospinal fluid of three hydrocephalic children with a history of shunt malfunction. Hypoxanthine and xanthine levels were high in comparison with controls. We consider these purines to be
The EEG recordings of 105 hydrocephalic children with proven ventriculomegaly and increased intracranial pressure were studied prior to initial shunt treatment. Only 2 patients had a normal EEG and 7 had only abnormal dominant activity. Paroxysmal slow-wave activity, generalized or posterior, was pr
