Exploring Fluid Dynamics and Hemodynamic Interactions in Chronic Hydrocephalus

Abstract

Mariana Hughs*

Chronic hydrocephalus is a complex neurological disorder characterized by the accumulation of cerebrospinal fluid within the brain's ventricular system, leading to elevated intracranial pressure. This paper investigates the intricate interplay between fluid dynamics and hemodynamic interactions in the context of chronic hydrocephalus. By reviewing the current state of knowledge regarding the pathophysiology and mechanisms behind this condition, this study aims to deepen our understanding of the fluid dynamics and hemodynamic factors contributing to the development and progression of chronic hydrocephalus. Insights from this exploration may lead to enhanced diagnostic and therapeutic strategies for individuals affected by this condition.
