Diffuse glioma manifesting as normal pressure hydrocephalus: A potential pitfall in diagnosis-a case report

• Hydrocephalus is rarely reported in patients with diffuse glioma. • We describe a patient with a low-grade glioma presenting a complex phenotype initially masquerading as hydrocephalus of unknown etiology. • The exact pathophysiological mechanism underlying hydrocephalus in the setting of diffuse...

description • Hydrocephalus is rarely reported in patients with diffuse glioma. • We describe a patient with a low-grade glioma presenting a complex phenotype initially masquerading as hydrocephalus of unknown etiology. • The exact pathophysiological mechanism underlying hydrocephalus in the setting of diffuse glioma remains to be elucidated. • Caution is advised regarding hydrocephalus of unknown etiology, reevaluation is necessary.
