Abstract

Se presentan dos casos de hidrocéfalo comunicante con presión normal que fueron referidos a un servicio psiquiátrico por déficit intelectual asociado a graves perturbaciones del comportamiento. La derivación ventrículo-atrial, usando la válvula de Pudenz-Heyer de baja presión, logró una mejoría notable en la conducta y en el cociente intelectual de los enfermos.
