Visual evoked potentials (VEPs) to repetitive flash stimuli were abnormal in 10 patients with documented hydrocephalus. Abnormalities included latency delays, fatigability, and asymmetries. Both latency and wave form disturbances improved in the postshunt period. Clinical progression of the hydrocephalus occurred in several patients, and this correlated well with worsening of the VEPs. We suggest that this noninvasive technique may be valuable in following patients with cerebrospinal fluid shunts, patients with presumed "arrested" hydrocephalus, and patients who are being weaned from their shunts.
在10例确诊为脑积水的患者中，对重复性闪光刺激的视觉诱发电位（VEP）异常。异常表现包括潜伏期延迟、疲劳性和不对称性。分流术后潜伏期和波形紊乱均有所改善。部分患者脑积水出现临床进展，这与VEP恶化密切相关。我们认为，这种非侵入性技术对于随访脑脊液分流患者、推测为“静止性”脑积水的患者以及正在停用分流装置的患者可能具有重要价值。
