In a 26-year-old man hospitalized for suspected epilepsy internal hydrocephalus was found with developmental anomalies of the ventricular system. Radioisotope cisternography demonstrated ventricular reflux typical of Hakim's syndrome. No signs of this syndrome were, however, present at the time of this investigation and during 5 years of follow-up. It is possible that the pathological result of radioisotope cisternography was due to developmental anomalies of the ventricular system.
