The pathological CSF accumulation in PHH likely arises from a combination of increased CSF secretion and impaired CSF absorption, which may manifest at different time scales following a hemorrhagic event. Emergent evidence on increased CSF secretion by the choroid plexus may herald a paradigm shift in our understanding of PHH.
