Title The Transport of Cerebrospinal Fluid by Lymphatic Vessels: Is It Time to Embrace a New Concept of Cerebrospinal Fluid Absorption?
Creator Miles Johnston
Affiliation Toronto, Ontario, Canada
Subject Cerebrospinal Fluid Transport; Lymphatic Vessels; Arachnoid Projections; Cribriform Plate; Intracranial Hypertension
Description A primary or secondary cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) absorption deficit is believed to contribute to some disorders of the CSF system. However, the mechanisms associated with CSF absorption are poorly understood and increasingly contentious. Over the last decade, my group has investigated the possibility that CSF drainage can occur into the lymphatic circulation.
