Objective: To evaluate the etiology of a subadult skeleton exhibiting increased size of the neurocranium and upper face. Materials: Skeletal remains of a child aged between 1.5–2 years from the Early Modern Period (14th -18th), Žumberak, Croatia. Methods: Metric and volumetric data were collected, and CT with VRT reconstruction was employed. Results: Metric analyses indicate that the neurocranium and upper face display increased size and volume. Conclusion: A diagnosis of the communicating form of hydrocephalus is suggested. Significance: This is the first published case of the communicating form of hydrocephalus. Limitations: It is difficult to determine the specific etiology of this condition based on skeletal remains |
