In 25 patients with hydrocephalus of various grades and aetiology treated by insertion of ventriculoatrial valves neuropsychological investigations were carried out before and after this operation using the method of Luria and certain psychometric tests. The obtained results made possible isolation of three grades of impairment of higher nervous functions: III--afunction--10 patients, II--dysfunction--12 patients, I--eufunction--3 patients. Control neuropsychological examination two weeks after the operation demonstrated improvement of higher nervous functions in 6 cases with grade III and 11 patients with grade II impairment. In these cases radiological investigations demonstrated evidence of normotensive and hypertensive hydrocephalus and this was confirmed by measurements of intraventricular pressure of the cerebrospinal fluid. In 5 cases with grades III and II of damage no improvement was found. Radiograms and measurements of intraventricular pressure suggested in these cases hydrocephalus due to brain atrophy.
