Hyrdocephalus?: If you are referring to a condition called hydrocephalus,the primary treatment is the surgical insertion of a shunt from the brain often down to the abdomen where the extra fluid can be reabsorbed.Check out the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke for more information.Any major hospital system will likely have pediatric neurosurgeons who can perform this surgery. Boston for sure
