09.01.2022 Do you know what Hydrocephalus is? - Hydrocephalus is the result of a blockage in the flow of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) through the pathways of the ventricles of the brain, causing pressure on the brain. - CSF, a clear, saltwater-like liquid surrounds the brain. This fluid protects and hydrates the brain, carries away waste from brain cells, and contains important chemicals and nutrients. Each day the brain produces about 500mL of cerebrospinal fluid. The CSF flows in a co...ntinuous circuit through the brain cavities (ventricles), and over the surface of the brain and spinal cord until it is absorbed by the body. When CSF is constantly being produced, but cannot get out, it accumulates and causes raised pressure inside the brain. When there is a blockage, the ventricles swell or enlarge, and the brain tissue is stretched and squashed. - Fortunately, there are treatment options that can restore normal levels of CSF. Though treatment is often helpful, it may take multiple surgeries to treat hydrocephalus. (Hydrocephalus is the most common reason for brain surgery in young children.) With treatment, many people lead normal and productive lives. - To learn more about Hydrocephalus and how SBH Queensland supports individuals and families with Hydrocephalus visit the SBH Queensland website now https://www.spinabifida.org/hydrocephalus See more
