Abstract
MESH: Aqueduct of sylvius, aqua ductal web, hydrocephalus, ataxia, CSF blockage The Aqueduct of Sylvius is the narrowest portion of the path of Cerebrospinal Fluid (CSF) in the brain and connects the third and fourth ventricles [1]. It is therefore the most common site of interventricular blockage of CSF [2]. Rarely (approximately 1 in 5000) children are born with a congenital blockage of the aqueduct, which can have serious clinical consequences. We present a case of an 11-year-old male who presented to the ED with two weeks of declining motor function, ataxia, and confusion as well as three months of intermittent headaches, subsequently shown to be caused by hydrocephalus due to an aqueductal web.
