PHYSIOLOGY AND PATHOLOGY OF THE CEREBROSPINAL FLUID CHAPTER I INTRODUCTORY The fluids of the body have aroused interest and speculation from times immemorial. Observations on the blood and the urine are to be found in the earliest medical works, and the, speculations as to their function and composition would fill a library of volumes. Although it was hardly to be expected that the same amount of interest should have been aroused by the cerebrospinal fluid, yet reference to the contents of the cerebral ventricles is made by many of the earliest writers. Galen, Vesalius, and Valsalva all note its presence, and it would have been remarkable if the existence of a watery fluid in the interior of the skull should have escaped such an accomplished observer as Aristotle. Cotugno in 1762 and Haller in 1766 both described the existence of a clear limpid fluid not only in the ventricles of the brain, but also in the space between the membranes and the convolutions. Our modern interest in the fluid dates from the masterly observations and equally masterly description of Magendie in 1825. It was he who first realized the intimate connection between the fluid in the ventricles and that in the subarchnoid space, and also the physiological possibilities of a fluid which comes into such close relation with the central nervous system. His description of the distribution of the fluid, and of the effects of varying intracranial pressure is of sufficient interest to bear quotation: Entre la pie-mere et l'arachnoide se touve un liquide que je propose d'appeler cerebro-spinale; il existe chez l'homme et chez tous mammi feres. II sert a combler le vide qui existerait entre le cerveau et le crane osseux; il se regenere avec rapidite, peut circuler a travers les...

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Physiology and Pathology of the Cerebrospinal Fluid The object of this book is to present some of the fascinating physiological problems connected with the cerebrospinal fluid, and to show how they are related to the pathological problems which more directly concern the clinician. Not until the method of production and absorption of the fluid is completely understood can there be any hope of solving the age-long problem of the treatment of hydrocephalus; not until the details of the circulation of the fluid have been mastered, can intraspinal injections of drugs and sera be expected to fulfill the hopes of the therapeutist. Any means which will facilitate the difficult diagnosis of diseases of the central nervous system is of value, and the cerebrospinal fluid, which bathes its deepest recesses and washes the very nerve cells and fibers themselves, is in truth a mirror which reflects every change taking place in that system.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For centuries the great minds of medical science puzzled over the importance of the cerebrospinal fluid. As far back as Hippocrates, it was thought that this "phlegm" that flooded the intracranial contents had pathological significance. However, not until the late 1800s, when Quincke introduced and popularized lumbar puncture, did physicians take an interest in the study of this fluid in relation to clinical illness. Since then a variety of techniques for obtaining cerebrospinal fluid from various sites have developed, and the relationship of cerebrospinal fluid to a variety of disease processes has received considerable study. In this volume, we have attempted to assemble reviews of some of these important developments during the past century. Chapter 1 contains a historical review of key investigations that helped shape our concepts of cerebrospinal fluid from the earliest recorded description by the author of the Edwin Smith Surgical Papyrus in the seventeenth century B. C. to contemporaries such as Kabat, Glusman, and Knaub, who introduced quantitative determinations of cerebrospinal fluid gamma globulin levels. In Chapter 2 there is a description of our current understanding of the anatomical compartment for the cerebrospinal fluid and the physiology of its formation, circulation, and absorption. Dr. Richard Leech in Chapter 3 contributes a comprehensive description of the disorders associated with excessive quanti ties of cerebrospinal fluid-commonly referred to as hydrocephalus. A variety of techniques for properly collecting and evaluating cerebrospinal fluid are detailed in Chapter 4.
