Abstract:Idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus (iNPH) is a gradually progressive disease affecting the elderly population. The diagnosis of probable iNPH is based on clinical history, physical findings, brain imaging. INPH involves non-obstructive enlargement of the cerebral ventricles combined with one or more symptoms of cognitive decline, impaired gait and balance, and urinary urgency. Our case describes an unusual coexistence of radiological and clinical iNPH symptoms with paroxysmal paraparesis.
