This refers to hydrocephalus, which is actually an increase of cerebrospinal fluid in the brain. Kids with this disorder usually develop an enlarged head related to the csf accumulation. A shunt is usually placed in the ventricle to help remove the fluid and maintain regulation.

That is when a baby has water on the brain and it needs to be drained in order for the baby to recover and be normal.
