Best Hydrocephalus Treatment in Indore
Hydrocephalus is a condition characterized by the accumulation of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) in the brain, leading to increased intracranial pressure (ICP). This condition can cause a variety of symptoms, including headache, nausea, vomiting, and changes in vision or mental status. Treatment options for hydrocephalus aim to relieve symptoms and manage the underlying cause of fluid accumulation.
Symptoms or Causes:
Hydrocephalus can be congenital (present at birth) or acquired later in life. Common causes include obstruction of CSF flow, overproduction of CSF, or impaired absorption of CSF. Symptoms of hydrocephalus can vary depending on the age of onset and severity of the condition but may include headache, nausea, vomiting, changes in vision, difficulty walking, and cognitive or behavioral changes.
Treatment Options:
At our facility, we offer comprehensive treatment options for hydrocephalus tailored to each patient’s needs. Treatment may include the surgical placement of a ventriculoperitoneal (VP) shunt to divert excess CSF away from the brain and into the abdominal cavity, where it can be reabsorbed by the body. Other treatment options may include endoscopic third ventriculostomy (ETV) or minimally invasive procedures to manage CSF flow.
