Cerebrospinal Fluid from Aneurysmal Subarachnoid Hemorrhage Patients Leads to Hydrocephalus in Nude Mice
ConclusionsComponents of the acellular CSF of subarachnoid hemorrhage patients can cause epiplexus macrophage activation, ependymal cell damage, and ventricular enlargement in nude mice. This may serve as a unique model to study mechanisms of hydrocephalus development following subarachnoid hemorrhage.
