The former because of room between the holes of the third ventricle, the midbrain and the fourth ventricle and the side of the hole and the hole, as well as cerebellar cistern is not clear which took place; as a result of the latter more or absorb excess secretion of cerebrospinal fluid caused by obstacles. Due to the long-term brain ventricular pressure increased pressure on the organization of the brain, degeneration occurs, may become very low.
