What is Foramina of Monroe in Hydrocephalus about?
Hydrocephalus is an increased amount of CSF within the ventricles of the brain that can be caused by obstruction of CSF flow or secondary to injury, infection, or tumor. Symptoms in infants include enlarging head size and signs of increased intracranial pressure, while older children may experience headaches, vomiting, and changes in sensorium. Diagnostics include CT scans and placement of a shunt to drain excess CSF from the ventricles.
