Abstract
Hydrocephalus communicating with the basilar subarachnoid cisterns may manifest itself as enlargement of these spaces. Confirmation of this finding is based on resolution of dilatation after ventricular shunting. A series of eight patients points out the CT characteristics, the differential diagnosis, and the importance of the cisternal ventricle in the transmission of CSF.
