Abstract
From clinical, roentgenologic, and pathologic-anatomic observations in 5 cases it was found that the deformity of the third ventricle caused by the basilar artery only occurs when the latter is enlarged. It is considered likely that this enlargement is principally caused by damage to the elastic tissue in the vessel, combined with high blood pressure.Keywords
