Bedside Sonographic Duplex Technique as a Monitoring Tool in Patients after Decompressive Craniectomy: A Single Centre Experience

Medicina, 2020
Background and objectives: Bedside sonographic duplex technique (SDT) may be used as an adjunct to cranial computed tomography (CCT) to monitor brain-injured patients after decompressive craniectomy (DC).

A role for PDGF-C/PDGFRα signaling in the formation of the meningeal basement membranes surrounding the cerebral cortex

Biology Open, 2016
Platelet-derived growth factor-C (PDGF-C) is one of three known ligands for the tyrosine kinase receptor PDGFRα. Analysis of Pdgfc null mice has demonstrated roles for PDGF-C in palate closure and the formation of cerebral ventricles, but redundancy with

A novel ventriculoperitoneal shunt flow sensor based on electrically induced spatial variation in cerebrospinal fluid charge density

Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology
Introduction: Ventriculoperitoneal (VP) shunts divert cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) out of cerebral ventricles in patients with hydrocephalus or elevated intracranial pressure (ICP). Despite high failure rates, there exist limited clinically viable solutions

Cerebrospinal fluid flow within ventricles and subarachnoid space evaluated by velocity selective spin labeling MRI

NeuroImage
This study aims to evaluate cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) flow dynamics within ventricles, and the subarachnoid space (SAS) using the velocity selective spin labeling (VSSL) MRI method with Fourier-transform-based velocity selective inversion preparation ...

Finite Element Analysis of Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus: Influence of CSF Content and Anisotropy in Permeability

Applied Bionics and Biomechanics, 2010
Hydrocephalus is a cerebral disease where brain ventricles enlarge and compress the brain parenchyma towards the skull leading to symptoms like dementia, walking disorder and incontinence. The origin of normal pressure hydrocephalus is still obscure.

Curative effect analysis of minimally invasive puncture external ventricular drainage combined with early lumbar drainage in the treatment of intraventricular hemorrhage

Chinese Journal of Contemporary Neurology and Neurosurgery, 2014
This paper aims to evaluate the effect of minimally invasive puncture external ventricular drainage (EVD) combined with early lumbar drainage (LD) for clearance of hematoma in the third and fourh ventricles in patients with intraventricular hemorrhage

Intracranial migration of intraocular silicone oil mimicking metastatic disease

Radiology Case Reports, 2021
Silicone oil (SO) is a commonly used agent of intraocular endotamponade for treating complicated retinal detachment. We report a case of SO migration into the cerebral ventricles which was initially misdiagnosed as metastatic disease.
