  • Title: Myelination of the corpus callosum. II. The effect of relief of hydrocephalus upon the processes of myelination.
    Author: Gadsdon DR, Variend S, Emery JL.
    Journal: Z Kinderchir Grenzgeb; 1979 Dec; 28(4):314-21. PubMed ID: 551615.
    Abstract:
    A clinico-pathological study has been carried out on 32 brains of children with hydrocephalus in whom the hydrocephalus had been completely controlled by shunting. The cell and myelination activity of the corpus callosum in these children is within the normal range for children of the same age, which contrasts markedly with the findings in children in whom the hydrocephalus is in a progressive state.
