Abstract

In three patients who fulfilled the clinical criteria of progressive supranuclear palsy, radiologic investigations suggested normal-pressure hydrocephalus. Shunt procedures in all three resulted in temporary improvement of gait, mentation, and bladder control, but gaze paralysis and extrapyramidal findings did not change.
