Abstract
Four cases of non-filling of the subependymal veins of the lateral ventricles and internal cerebral vein at carotid angiography are reported. The patients were all children ranging in age from 4 months to 2 years and had a variety of neurologic conditions. Several hypotheses are suggested as to the possible pathogenesis of these findings.
