Six of a series of 90 patients with hydrocephalus in the first two decades of life were adolescents. Four of these patients had acute symptoms that were superimposed on a baseline of a marginally functional cerebrospinal fluid circulatory system. All 6 patients were believed to have congenital etiologies for their hydrocephalus despite its clinical presentation in the second decade of life.
在90例20岁前患有脑积水的患者中，有6例是青少年。其中4例患者有急性症状，这些症状叠加在一个功能勉强正常的脑脊液循环系统的基础之上。尽管这6例患者的脑积水临床表现于生命的第二个十年，但他们均被认为脑积水病因是先天性的。
