The causes of congenital hydrocephalus vary widely and have an important effect in determining the future counseling of affected cases. We analyzed the postmortem findings of 49 autopsies diagnosed as hydrocephalus to find the causes and related conditions. The cases were collected during the last 10 years (1981-1990). The cases consisted of 25 cases associated with various congenital malformat...

Humans have an extremely complex brain anatomy because of its complicated structure as well as functions. The brain is an integral part of the Central Nervous System (CNS) and is the center that controls the mental processes as well as physical actions of the human body. Brain abnormalities are symptoms wherein motor impairments or neuropsychological issues impact the CNS [1]. It is typically a...

From an estimated population of 2500 sian and three had underlying congenital hemophiliacs seen between 1965 and anomalies. No etiology was apparent in 976, 71 with documented central ncr38%. Sixty-five patients had intracranial vous system (CNS) bleeding were studied bleeding. Those with intracerebral bleeding retrospectively: 56 had factor VIII deficiency had a poorer prognosis than did those...

Common etiology neonatal brain disorders, hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy, central nervous system (CNS) infections, CNS bleeds, and structural anomalies the or secondary to metabolic problems, for example, hypoglycemia, hyponatremia, other electrolyte disturbances...

Emerging evidence suggests that cell-based remyelination strategies may be a feasible therapeutic approach for CNS diseases characterized by myelin deficiency as a result of trauma, congenital anomalies, or diseases. Although experimental demyelination models targeted at the transient elimination of oligodendrocytes have suggested that transplantation-based remyelination can partially restore a...

OBJECTIVE Morphological investigation of the central nervous system (CNS) in fetuses with positive markers for open spina bifida (OSB) detection, visualized by ultrasound during the first trimester of pregnancy. MATERIALS AND METHODS Data from fetuses that underwent routine first trimester ultrasound scan in our center during September 2007-March 2011 and presented abnormal aspects of the fou...

The typical form of congenital muscular dystrophy (CMD) described in Western countries is generally considered different from its Japanese variant because of the absence of CNS involvement. Evaluations from both a clinical and a neuroradiological point of view were made of the CNS functions of 12 unselected Western children affected by CMD. In five patients, clinical observation and intelligenc...
