Do you know about the condition called Hydrocephalus that increases the water pressure in the brain? Dr. Anurag Saxena, HOD & Consultant - Neurosurgery, Manipal Hospital Delhi, explains the condition while sharing the symptoms and talks about the advanced treatments available at the hospital. Watch to learn more! Hydrocephalus is a neurological condition characterized by an abnormal accumulation of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) in the brain's ventricles, leading to increased intracranial pressure. This condition can affect individuals of all ages, from infants to older adults. Symptoms may include headaches, nausea, vomiting, vision problems, and cognitive impairment. Hydrocephalus can be congenital or acquired due to infections, tumours, or trauma. Timely diagnosis and treatment are crucial to prevent serious complications like brain damage and cognitive disabilities. Treatments may involve surgically implanting a shunt to drain excess CSF, or endoscopic procedures to restore fluid flow. Ongoing medical management and support are often necessary to improve patients' quality of life.
