Macewen's sign : ウィキペディア英語版 | Macewen's sign Macewen's sign or Macewen sign () the is a sign used to help to diagnose hydrocephalus〔http://archpedi.ama-assn.org/cgi/content/summary/16/1/13〕 (accumulation of excess cerebrospinal fluid) and brain abscesses. Tapping (percussion) the skull near the junction of the frontal, temporal and parietal bones will produce a stronger resonant sound when either hydrocephalus or a brain abscess are present. The sign was discovered and described by Sir William Macewen (1848-1924), a surgeon and professor of the University of Glasgow, Scotland who also described Macewen's operation for inguinal hernia. ==References==
