Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus

Talk to your doctor if you or someone close to you has symptoms of Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus.

Normal pressure hydrocephalus (NPH) is a rare disease caused when excess cerebrospinal fluid builds up in brain cavities called ventricles.

When the brain ventricles expand due to extra cerebrospinal fluid, it can harm the surrounding brain tissue, leading to symptoms of NPH. This condition commonly affects individuals in their 60s and 70s and can result in cognitive function, mobility, and bladder control issues.
