Hydrocephalus is well-recognized as a complication of tuberculous meningitis in childhood. This complication may occur more frequently in the acute stage in adults than it was thought. Three cases are described. Early recognition and prompt treatment may improve mortality and morbidity at any age.This publication has 3 references indexed in Scilit:
