Arachnoid villi are small protrusions of the arachnoid mater into the dural venous sinuses, facilitating the transfer of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) from the subarachnoid space into the venous system. This process is crucial for maintaining proper CSF pressure and homeostasis within the central nervous system.
Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) circulation is a crucial process that involves the production, flow, and absorption of CSF within the brain's ventricular system and the subarachnoid space surrounding the brain and spinal cord. This circulation maintains intracranial pressure, provides cushioning for the brain, and removes metabolic waste, playing a vital role in central nervous system homeostasis.
Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) dynamics involve the production, circulation, and absorption of CSF, which cushions the brain and spinal cord while maintaining homeostasis in the central nervous system. Disruptions in CSF dynamics can lead to conditions such as hydrocephalus, intracranial hypertension, or spinal fluid leaks, impacting neurological health.
