Abstract

Hydrocephalus is a complex disorder of the formation, flow, and absorption of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), characterized by increased intracranial pressure, pathological dilatation of the cerebral ventricles, and excessive accumulation of CSF. This study describes the correlation of hydrocephalus degrees in children aged 0-12 with clinical manifestation through a head CT scan to measure the degree of mild, moderate, and severe hydrocephalus using the linear measurement. Research subjects according to age group < 6 years 62.8% and higher in males = 37.2%. Based on clinical manifestations, febrile seizures 48.5%, delayed development 31.3%, and decreased consciousness 20.1%. The average linear measurement values ​ with decreased consciousness were BCI = 0.650, VI = 0.38, FOHR = 0.829, FHR=0.045 and BFI=0.650. The average linear measurement values ​​compared to delayed development FHR, BCI and BFI were 0.500, 0.127, and 0.220, respectively, with the FOHR significance value = 0.109 and the VI significance value = 0.002. Linear measurement values compared to the degree of hydrocephalus with clinical manifestations of febrile convulsions were more in the moderate category, the decrease in consciousness was more in the mild category, while delayed development had more mild categories.
