Abstract
Hydrocephalus is a common condition in the pediatric population known to have many causes and presentation patterns. We report from the analysis of 2 cases the existence of a new complication of pediatric hydrocephalus. Naming this entity “dissecting intraparenchymal cerebrospinal fluid collection”, we advance a hypothesis regarding its pathophysiology and discuss its clinical implications and management.
