Hyperostosis Cranii ex Vacuo in Shunted Children: A Proposed Fifth Subtype of CSF Overdrainage Syndrome

2025-07-30

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background: </h4> Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) shunting remains a crucial intervention in the treatment of paediatric hydrocephalus. Overdrainage syndrome is a well-recognised but potentially severe complication, in which hyperostosis cranii ex vacuo-diffuse thickening of the cranial bones-emerges as an adaptive response to chronic intracranial hypotension. Currently, no established diagnostic criteria exist to r...
