Martin J. Murphy, M.D., Lynn W. Lyon, M.D., Thomas A. Carlstrom, M.D. and Dennis E. McDonnell, M.D.

Neurology and Neurosurgery Services, Veterans Administration Hospital, Iowa City, and the Department of Neurology and Surgery (Neurosurgery), University of Iowa, College of Medicine, Iowa City, Iowa.

In a patient presenting with the clinical features of normal pressure hydrocephalus, a membranous obstruction of the aqueduct of Sylvius was demonstrated by combined air encephalography and contrast ventriculography. Ventriculoatrial shunting resulted in clinical improvement without significant change in ventricular size.

Dr. Murphy's address is Department of Neurology, University Hospitals, Iowa City, IA 52242.

Accepted for publication July 18, 1977.
