Abstract:
Congenital hydrocephalus is defined as the abnormal accumulation of cerebrospinal fluid resulting in the enlargement of the ventricular system in which the intracranial pressure is known or suspected to be elevated and present since before birth. Congenital hydrocephalus can occur in isolation but is often associated with other conditions such as aqueductal stenosis and spina bifida. Surgery, generally the placement of a ventriculopritoneal shunt, is the mainstay of treatment. Cognitive outcomes are variable and most predicted by associated disability.

Abstract:
The brain is protected by the cranial skeleton. Within the intracranial compartment are also cerebrospinal fluid, CSF, and the blood contained within the brain vessels. These intracranial components are in dynamic equilibrium due to the pulsations of the heart and the respiratory regulated return of venous blood from the brain. Normally the mean arterial blood pressure, systemic venous pressure, and brain volume are regulated to maintain physiological values for intracranial pressure, ICP. There are a range of very common disorders such as stroke, and much less common, such as idiopathic intra

Abstract:
Pineal region tumors can include a variety of histologies including pineal parenchymal tumor, germ cell tumor, glial tumor, metastasis and meningioma. The workup for pineal region tumors includes standard magnetic resonance imaging for anatomic imaging, as well as cerebrospinal fluid markers to assess for certain germ cell tumors. Cerebrospinal fluid diversion may be necessary if patients present with hydrocephalus. If surgical resection is indicated based on the suspected diagnosis, magnetic resonance venogram is an important study that influences the surgical trajectory. This chapter reviews

Abstract:
Intracranial hypertension may damage the brain in two ways—it causes tissue distortion and herniation, and reduces cerebral perfusion. The many different pathologies that can result in intracranial hypertension include subarachnoid haemorrhage, spontaneous intra-parenchymal haemorrhage, malignant cerebral hemispheric infarction, and acute hydrocephalus. The pathophysiology and specific treatment of intracranial hypertension may be different and depend on aetiology. In patients with subarachnoid haemorrhage a specific focus is on treating secondary hydrocephalus and maintaining adequate cerebra

Abstract:
Pineal region tumors include a diverse array of neoplasms arising from various components of the pineal gland, including germ cell tumors, germinomas, teratomas, pineocytomas, pineoblastomas, and tumors derived from glial tissues including gliomas, astrocytomas, oligodendrogliomas, and ependymomas. Benign lesions of the pineal gland can include pineal cysts, calcifications and meningiomas. Metastatic tumors can also be found in the pineal region. Numerous infectious and inflammatory conditions can mimic pineal tumors. Most patients present with symptoms of hydrocephalus or Parinaud’s syndrome.

Abstract:
Pediatric posterior fossa tumors are usually ependymoma, pilocytic astrocytoma, or medulloblastoma. Ependymoma appears well-demarcated with heterogeneous enhancement on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Full neural axis MRI is indicated to assess for metastatic disease. Management is typically surgical resection of the tumor, with consideration for cerebrospinal fluid diversion if patients present with severe hydrocephalus. Extent of resection of the tumor is the most important factor in predicting recurrence and overall survival, and gross total resection is ideal. Infratentorial ependymomas

Abstract:
Neurological assessment is performed on admission for surgery, as a routine part of medical examination. This is done to diagnose whether symptoms of illness in the patient are due to neurological conditions and, if so, where in the nervous system the pathological lesions are located. Hydrocephalus is either an acute or chronic condition whereby the cerebrospinal fluid pressure rises, causing symptoms of raised intracranial pressure. Patients at risk of raised intracranial pressure should be nursed by staff trained and experienced in neurological assessment using the Glasgow coma scale. This c

Abstract:
Consciousness depends on oxygen delivered to the brain by arterial blood. Compromises to this delivery by an increase in intracranial pressure or decrease in available oxygen can produce syncope. The blood supply to the forebrain stems from the internal carotids that serve the anterior circulation. The posterior circulation is fed by the vertebral arteries and supplies blood to the brainstem. Redundancy to the brain’s blood supply is served by anastomoses, a connection between the posterior and anterior circulations, and by the Circle of Willis. The clinical characteristics of common brainstem
