Hydrocephalus Ex Vacuo With Some Extensive White Matter Atrophy
Seraphim9120:
Hydrocephalus ex vacuo. Hydrocephalus by definition means that the amount of liquor (brain fluid) is higher than normal. Ex vavuo means that this increased amount is there because there is more space available for it. For example because the white matter has atrophied (disappeares) for some reason. That might be because of a degenerative pathophysiological reason or due to atrophy caused by age.

The causality of “higher pressure by fluid” the other commenter lays out may exist, but is not the primary reason for hydrocephalus ex vacuo.
