Title |
Cerebrospinal Fluid in a Comparted Optic Nerve Sheath |
Creator |
Hanspeter E. Killer, Jie Hao, Achmed Pircher |
Subject |
Optic Neuropathy, Neuroimaging |
Description |
Cerebrospinal fluid has three main functions, 1: mechanical protection of brain and spinal cord tissue from trauma, 2: distribution of nutrients to CNS tissue, and 3: removal of waste products from cerebral metabolism. . CSF also helps maintain the correct ionic and protein composition of the environment surrounding nervous tissue cells. Given the multiple biologically relevant functions of CSF, impaired CSF dynamics and altered content would be expected to exercise a negative influence on tissue that depends on a homeostatic CSF environment. fluid is an important medium for maintaining the healthy of neurons and axons. Reduced CSF turnover is discussed in the pathophysiology of normal tension glaucoma (NTG) papilledema and SANS. One reason for a disturbed CSF turnover is the optic nerve sheath compartment syndrome. It has been described in patients with normal tension glaucoma and in some patients with papilledema. |
