CSF dynamics disorders: Association of brain MRI and nuclear medicine cisternogram findings
Disproportionately enlarged subarachnoid space hydrocephalus (DESH), characterized by ventriculomegaly, high convexity/midline tight sulci, and enlarged sylvian fissures on brain MRI has been increasingly recognized as a distinct diagnostic imaging ...

Mapping Alterations to the Endogenous Elemental Distribution within the Lateral Ventricles and Choroid Plexus in Brain Disorders Using X-Ray Fluorescence Imaging. [PDF]
The choroid plexus and cerebral ventricles are critical structures for the production of cerebral spinal fluid (CSF) and play an important role in regulating ion and metal transport in the brain, however many aspects of its roles in normal physiology and

Rigid endoscopic surgery of brainstem cavernous malformation on the cerebral aqueduct. Case report
Cavernous angiomas (malformations) of the brain occur in 0.5% of the population. Most of them are asymptomatic, but due to their anatomical features, namely escape of blood into surrounding tissues, significant neurological symptoms can occur.

Dyke-Davidoff-Masson syndrome: A rare case of hemiatrophy of brain—Case report from Nepal
Dyke-Davidoff-Masson syndrome (DDMS) is a rare neurological disorder that results from brain injury during intrauterine or early years of life. Prominent cortical sulci, dilated lateral ventricles, cerebral hemiatrophy, hyperpneumatization of the sinus ...

New experimental model of acute aqueductal blockage in cats: effects on cerebrospinal fluid pressure and the size of brain ventricles [PDF]
It is generally assumed that cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) is secreted in the brain ventricles, and so after an acute blockage of the aqueduct of Sylvius an increase in the ventricular CSF pressure and dilation of isolated ventricles may be expected. We have

Visualisation of cerebrospinal fluid flow patterns in albino
Background It has long been known that cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), its composition and flow, play an important part in normal brain development, and ependymal cell ciliary beating as a possible driver of CSF flow has previously been studied in mammalian ...

Progressive cognitive impairment evolving to dementia parallels parieto-occipital and temporal enlargement in idiopathic chronic hydrocephalus: a retrospective cohort study [PDF]
Little is known regarding progressive enlargement of the ventricular system in symptomatic patients or asymptomatic subjects. Before eventual surgical treatment, we evaluated the clinical and radiological features of an extremely rare group of patients ...
