Abstract
Posttraumatic hydrocephalus (PH) is a common complication of craniocerebral trauma. It is necessary to bear this entity in mind, especially when managing craniocerebral trauma patients, because if not detected in time, it can significantly affect morbidity and mortality. It needs to be distinguished from brain atrophy with axonal degeneration, a condition requiring an entirely different treatment approach. Key words: hydrocephalus - posttraumatic - VP shunt - brain CT - progression of neurological status.
