Good vs functional: Good vs functional recovery. With lucencies seen on imaging, there will be residual neurological signs. How much better will the neurological signs get is uncertain. Usually signs are permanent after a year.

Stroke recovery. : Yes. The patient can have an excellent recovery and gains will be made over the next 18 months after the stroke. It is important to work closely with a physician who specializes in stroke rehabilitation. Also important to be monitored by a neurosurgeon who can make sure the shunt is working or that there is not worsening of the hydrocephalus.
