Neuroendoscopic surgery for unilateral hydrocephalus due to inflammatory obstruction of the Monro foramen

Arquivos de Neuro-Psiquiatria, 2011
OBJECTIVE: Unilateral hydrocephalus (UH) is characterized by enlargement of just one lateral ventricle. In this paper, the authors will demonstrate their experiences in the neuroendoscopic management of this uncommon type of hydrocephalus.

Pulsatile Viscous Flows in Elliptical Vessels and Annuli: Solution to the Inverse Problem, with Application to Blood and Cerebrospinal Fluid Flow [PDF]

arXiv, 2012
We consider the fully-developed flow of an incompressible Newtonian fluid in a cylindrical vessel with elliptical cross-section (both an ellipse and the annulus between two confocal ellipses). In particular, we address an inverse problem, namely to compute the velocity field associated with a given, time-periodic flow rate.

Effect of very preterm delivery on outcomes following in utero spina bifida repair

Pregnancy, Volume 1, Issue 3, May 2025.
Abstract Objective In utero fetal spina bifida repair decreases the risk for cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) diversion including ventriculoperitoneal (VP) shunt placement, reverses hindbrain herniation, and improves motor function with a higher likelihood of independent ambulation. Unfortunately, in utero surgery can be complicated by preterm delivery.

Silver-impregnated, antibiotic-impregnated or non-impregnated ventriculoperitoneal shunts to prevent shunt infection: the BASICS three-arm RCT

Health Technology Assessment, 2020
Background: Insertion of a ventriculoperitoneal shunt to treat hydrocephalus is one of the most common neurosurgical procedures worldwide. Shunt infection affects up to 15% of patients, resulting in long hospital stays, multiple surgeries and reduced ...

Pseudo‐orthostatic tremor in a cat

Journal of Veterinary Internal Medicine, Volume 39, Issue 3, May/June 2025.
Abstract An 11‐month‐old male castrated shorthaired cat was presented with a tremor in both pelvic limbs, which only occurred when standing (ie, countering gravity) or during active extension of the stifle. General clinical and neurological examinations were normal aside from the tremor of the pelvic limbs, which disappeared on performing a weight ...

Abdominal cerebrospinal fluid pseudocysts in patients with ventriculoperitoneal shunts: 30 years of experienceFNx01

Journal of Indian Association of Pediatric Surgeons, 2007
Aim: We evaluated the treatment outcome of the patients having cerebrospinal fluid pseudocyst following ventriculo-peritoneal shunt. Materials and Methods: During the period of 1975 to 2005, 392 hydrocephalic patients underwent ventriculo-peritoneal ...

Isointense infant brain MRI segmentation with a dilated convolutional neural network [PDF]

arXiv, 2017
Quantitative analysis of brain MRI at the age of 6 months is difficult because of the limited contrast between white matter and gray matter. In this study, we use a dilated triplanar convolutional neural network in combination with a non-dilated 3D convolutional neural network for the segmentation of white matter, gray matter and cerebrospinal fluid in

Generalized Tremors in Dogs: 198 Cases (2003–2023)

Journal of Veterinary Internal Medicine, Volume 39, Issue 3, May/June 2025.
ABSTRACT Background Diseases associated with generalized tremors in dogs have not been extensively investigated in a large population of dogs. Hypothesis/Objectives Describe semiology, tremor phenotype, and diseases associated with generalized tremors in dogs, and identify clinical features that could be associated with the underlying disease.

Mathematical pressure volume models of the cerebrospinal fluid [PDF]

arXiv, 1996
Numerous mathematical models have emerged in the medical literature over the past two decades attempting to characterize the pressure and volume dynamics the central nervous system compartment. These models have been used to study he behavior of this compartment under such pathological clinical conditions s hydrocephalus, head injury and brain edema ...
