Normal pressure hydrocephalus (NPH) is a neurological disorder often misdiagnosed as Parkinson's disease, Alzheimer's disease, and senility. It brings incontinence, difficulty walking (ataxia-like wide-based gait), and memory problems. NPH stems from an accumulation of cerebrospinal fluid around the brain enlarging ventricles and stretching the brain's tissues.
