The convolutions of the brain are flattened and the sulci more or less obliterated. In external hydro- cephahis the accumulation of fluid is found in the arachnoid sac; but in internal hydrocephalus — the most common form — the ventricles are greatly distended with a watery fluid of low specific gravity, containing a trace of albumin. The epen- dyma is often thickened and roughened. Malformations are frequently observed, and probably result from the same cause which induced the eflFiision. Symp...toms. — Sometimes the disease develops before birth, and the large head interferes with the delivery of the child. In other cases nothing peculiar is observed until the child is several months old, when the swelling of the head attracts the attention of the parents. The head assumes a globular shape ; the fontanelles and sutures remain open ; tlie face be- comes relatively small; the eyes protrude and are directed downward from the pressure of the fluid on the supraorbital plates ; the scalp appears thin and stretched ; the superficial veins are distended ; and the hair becomes scant.
