Hydrocephalus is a condition that is caused by abnormal buildup or accumulation of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) in the ventricles or subarachnoid space of the brain. As a result, intracranial pressure is increased by overproduction of CSF, obstruction of the flow of CSF, or failure to reabsorb the fluid.
