Title: [Treatment of infantile hydrocephalus with isosorbide dinitrate (author's transl)]. Author: Nieto Barrera M, Candáu Fernández-Mensaque R, Rufo Campos M, Rodríguez Criado G, Barrionuevo Gallo B. Journal: An Esp Pediatr; 1977 Nov; 10(11):843-56. PubMed ID: 343675. Abstract: Eighteen of infantile hydrocephalus have been treated with isosorbide dinitrate. Pharmacology of this compound is considered. It appears that completely dinitrated isosorbide is the major metabolite. Isosorbide may be effective in a variable proportion of various types of infantile hydrocephalus. Results of isosorbide dinitrate therapy in children with "communicating" and "noncommunicating" hydrocephalus are reported. Treatment was monitored by simple measurements, and it's toxicity proved to be scanty.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
