Hydrocephalus is the term that refers to an abnormally increased amount of cerebrospinal fluid within the brain. It can lead to an enlarged head in infants and cause symptoms like headaches and cognitive difficulties in adults.
Too much cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) in the cranium (skull) is called hydrocephalus.
Do you mean hydrocephalus? It refers to accumulation of abnormal quantity of cerebrospinal fluid in the ventricles of the brain.
Overproduction of cerebrospinal fluid can result from conditions such as meningitis, brain tumors, and certain types of hydrocephalus. Inflammation or growths within the brain can lead to increased production of cerebrospinal fluid as the body responds to these conditions.
No, the rate of Cerebrospinal Fluid production and removal in the brain is approximately equal. Any imbalance in this system can lead to conditions like hydrocephalus or intracranial pressure abnormalities.
This defect may cause children to develop an accumulation of cerebrospinal fluid on the brain (hydrocephalus ).
damage to ependymal cells would most likely affect the production and circulation of cerebrospinal fluid within the brain and spinal cord. This could lead to conditions such as hydrocephalus due to impaired fluid balance.
Spina Bifida is a congenital neural tube defect where part of the spine and meninges are damaged and/or exposed. Hydrocephalus is a secondary condition sometimes associated with Spina Bifida where cerebrospinal fluid accumulates in the brain.
When cerebrospinal fluid is blocked, it can lead to a condition called hydrocephalus. This condition causes the fluid to accumulate in the brain's ventricles, putting pressure on the brain tissue and leading to symptoms like headaches, nausea, and cognitive impairment. Treatment may involve surgical intervention to drain the excess fluid.
There seems to be a spelling error in your question. Did you mean hydrocephalus? Hydrocephalus is a condition where fluid accumulates in the brain, leading to increased pressure that can cause symptoms like headaches, nausea, and vision problems. Treatment often involves inserting a shunt to drain excess fluid and alleviate symptoms.
Hydrocephalus (from the Greek meaning "water on the brain") is the medical term meaning increased cranial pressure due to accumulation of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). It's usually caused by something blocking normal drainage of CSF.
The medical term for pertaining to water on the brain is "hydrocephalus." It is a condition where excess cerebrospinal fluid accumulates in the brain's ventricles, leading to increased pressure and swelling. It can cause symptoms such as headaches, nausea, and balance problems.
