Question

Hello! I would like to ask the doctor, colleagues often talk about the possibility of strabismus, could it be pediatric hydrocephalus? What are the symptoms of pediatric hydrocephalus?

Answer

The clinical manifestations of pediatric hydrocephalus in infants mainly appear a few weeks or months after birth, with a rapid increase in head size and gradual enlargement of the skull. Other symptoms include abnormal head shape, strabismus, vomiting, seizures, nystagmus, language disorders, paralysis, ataxia, difficulty walking, and intellectual impairment. For early or mild cases, non-surgical treatment may sometimes be chosen.
