The aim of this work was to differentiate the signs of hypertension and hydrocephalus, analyze and systematize them. We carried out complex radiological study of 97 patients (67 males and 30 females) with hypertension and hydrocephalus syndrome aged 25-30 years old with the determination of pressure in the liquor system. Observations showed that hypertension (increase of cerebrospinal pressure) in 17 patients proceeded without hydrocephalus.
