PPT-Cerebrospinal Fluid (CSF)

Introduction CSF is a clear colorless liquid fills the cavities of the brain and the spinal cord surrounding them and acts as a lubricant and a mechanical barrier against shock CSF has a slightly alkaline chemical composition similar to blood It contains no red blood cells and low amounts of protein and lipids in comparison to blood It is about 99 percent water There are about 100 to 150 milliliters of cerebrospinal fluid in the normal adult body. 9 drawing shows a view of the brain. The black arrows show the major pathway of CSF flow. The gray arrows show additional pathways. Lateral ventricle S agittal sinus C horoid plexus d ventricle Arac 2. Gram stain and culture.

The canine meningoencephalitides of unknown etiology (MUE). GME,NME,NLE. Histopathologic lesions are similar to those present in human viral meningoencephalitis. PCR method has demonstrated that 50-70% of human meningoencephalitides are caused by CNS viral infections.. The physiology of CSF is a complex topic, and treatment for hydrocephalus typically depends on its cause. Cerebrospinal Fluid and Hydrocephalus: Physiology, Diagnosis, and TreatmentAndreas K.
