CSF is cerebrospinal fluid . It is a colorless fluid found in the brain and spine. It is formed in the lateral ventricles from where it circulates through the interventricular foramens into the third ventricle and finally into the fourth ventricle.

Why is csf protein in newborn is high normally?
Since blood-csf barrier is not well developed in neonates protein leak from blood to csf occurs...so csf protein is high in neonates and infants...for similar reason csf protein is elevated in all meningitis due to vascular permeability...
What damage is caused by swelling of the meninges which interferes with the normal absorption of CSF by blood vessels?
Swelling of the meninges may interfere with the normal absorption of CSF by blood vessels, causing accumulation of CSF and damage from the resulting pressure on the brain.
