Abstract

The pathophysiology of the clinical manifestations in normal pressure hydrocephalus (NPH) remains obscure. Ventricular dilatation could generate forces on the paracentral fibers of the corona radiata (CR), hence interfering with their function and producing the classical clinical triad. The analysis of the regional displacement and deformation of the white matter bundles, forming the corona radiata and internal capsule, may clarify the relationship between ventricular dilatation and clinical manifestations in NPH.
