Method of CSF Sampling
![Page 7: BODY FLUIDS. CEREBROSPINAL FLUID (CSF ) CSF is formed from the blood plasma, in the choroid plexuses of the brain ventricles, partly by ultrafiltration](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062217/56649d925503460f94a7881a/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Examination of CSF: CSF is normally colorless & clear, turbidity is usually
due to leucocytes, but it may be due to micro-organisms.
- Blood stained CSF may indicate :
- Recent subarachnoid hemorrhage
- Traumatic tap (damage to blood vessel during specimen collection
- Xanthochromia (yellow color) is the result of :
- CSF protein concentration is very high
- previous hemorrhage into the CSF (Lysis of RBCs and breakdown of hemoglobin).
- jaundiced patients.

Chemical composition of CSF : is similar to that of the blood plasma, only
differing in the concentrations of :
A - The non-Diffusible Substances
B - Some Diffusible Substances
![Page 10: BODY FLUIDS. CEREBROSPINAL FLUID (CSF ) CSF is formed from the blood plasma, in the choroid plexuses of the brain ventricles, partly by ultrafiltration](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062217/56649d925503460f94a7881a/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
A - The non-Diffusible Substances:
1- Proteins, mostly albumin are found in the CSF (15-45 mg/dl), the A/G ratio being 4/1
- 80% of CSF protein originates from plasma by ultrafiltration and the remainder is from intrathecal synthesis.
- CSF protein concentration due to:- permeability of blood brain barrier to
plasma proteins.- Brain tumors.
- Acute bacterial meningitis.
![Page 11: BODY FLUIDS. CEREBROSPINAL FLUID (CSF ) CSF is formed from the blood plasma, in the choroid plexuses of the brain ventricles, partly by ultrafiltration](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062217/56649d925503460f94a7881a/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
intrathecal synthesis of immunoglobulins particularly IgG result from proliferation of limited number of clones of plasma cells and is associated with oligoclonal bands that are present in CSF but not in serum.
- Examination of the oligoclonal bands by electrophoresis has a great importance in diagnosis of demyelinating diseases (Multiple sclerosis).
![Page 12: BODY FLUIDS. CEREBROSPINAL FLUID (CSF ) CSF is formed from the blood plasma, in the choroid plexuses of the brain ventricles, partly by ultrafiltration](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062217/56649d925503460f94a7881a/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
2 - Lipids and bilirubin :
They are almost all protein bound in the plasma So, they cannot cross the blood brain barrier and almost absent in CSF.
3- Calcium:
Being only partly bound to the plasma proteins, Free calcium radially crosses into the CSF So, calcium concentration in CSF is lower than that in the plasma.

B - Some Diffusible Substances :
1- Glucose:
- CSF glucose concentration is lower than that in the blood plasma (50 - 80 mg/dl).
- In hypoglycemia [CSF glucose] may be very low.
- In hyperglycemia, it is raised.
- CSF glucose conc. may be low or undetectable in patients with - Acute bacterial meningitis,
- Tuberculous meningitis - Carcinomatous meningitis
due to consumption of glucose by leucocytes or other rapidly metabolizing cells.
- In viral meningitis it is usually normal.

2 - Potassium and phosphates are present in lower concentration than in the blood plasma 3 - Chlorides and magnesium are present in
higher concentrations than in the blood plasma - The chloride concentration is explained on
the basis of the ( Donnan equilibrium). - Chlorides :
- markedly in acute bacterial meningitis
- slightly in viral meningitis & brain tumors.

URINE
![Page 18: BODY FLUIDS. CEREBROSPINAL FLUID (CSF ) CSF is formed from the blood plasma, in the choroid plexuses of the brain ventricles, partly by ultrafiltration](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062217/56649d925503460f94a7881a/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Urine is a fluid obtained through renal glomeruli with considerable changes which occur in this filtrate before it is excreted as urine.
Normal urine contains about 1.5 liters of water per day.
![Page 19: BODY FLUIDS. CEREBROSPINAL FLUID (CSF ) CSF is formed from the blood plasma, in the choroid plexuses of the brain ventricles, partly by ultrafiltration](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062217/56649d925503460f94a7881a/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Composition of urine
Urine contains organic and inorganic solids:
Chief organic solids:

![Page 24: BODY FLUIDS. CEREBROSPINAL FLUID (CSF ) CSF is formed from the blood plasma, in the choroid plexuses of the brain ventricles, partly by ultrafiltration](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062217/56649d925503460f94a7881a/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Abnormal constituents of urine
A) Proteins : Normally less than 200 mg protein is excreted in
the urine daily; more than this level leads to a condition called “Proteinuria”.
Proteinuria is either Glomerular or Tubular .
Glomerular proteinuria is due to glomerular permeability filtration of high molecular weight proteins ( e.g. glomerulonephritis).
Tubular proteinuria occurs as a result of tubular reabsorption with normal glomerular permeability excretion of low molecular weight proteins (e.g. chronic nephritis)
![Page 25: BODY FLUIDS. CEREBROSPINAL FLUID (CSF ) CSF is formed from the blood plasma, in the choroid plexuses of the brain ventricles, partly by ultrafiltration](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062217/56649d925503460f94a7881a/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Proteinuria is divided into Prerenal, Renal and Postrenal.
1 - Prerenal proteinuria:
Occurs in: Bence – Jones protein:
This abnormal gamma globulin ( light chains only) is synthesized by malignant plasma cells (Multiple myeloma).
It precipitates at 60OC, redissolves at 100OC and reprecipitates on cooling.
![Page 26: BODY FLUIDS. CEREBROSPINAL FLUID (CSF ) CSF is formed from the blood plasma, in the choroid plexuses of the brain ventricles, partly by ultrafiltration](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062217/56649d925503460f94a7881a/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
2 - Renal proteinuria: is due to - Severe muscular exercise - After prolonged standing (Orthostatic proteinuria)
- Heart failure - Nephrotic syndrome - Glomerulonephritis - Microalbuminuria:
- Presence of small amounts of albumin in the urine (20 – 200 mg/L) that cannot be detected by ordinary urine testing & needs special tests for detection.
- It is an early indicator of glomerular affection due to uncontrolled DM or hypertension.
3 - Postrenal proteinuria: is due to
- Lower urinary tract inflammation, tumors or stones
![Page 27: BODY FLUIDS. CEREBROSPINAL FLUID (CSF ) CSF is formed from the blood plasma, in the choroid plexuses of the brain ventricles, partly by ultrafiltration](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062217/56649d925503460f94a7881a/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
B) Glycosuria : (Presence of any sugar in urine)
1 - Glucosuria: (Presence of detectable amount of glucose in urine )
- Uncontrolled DM :The concentration of glucose in the plasma exceeds the renal threshold.
- Renal glucosuria : Normal plasma glucose concentration with proximal tubular malfunction renal threshold (Gestational Diabetes & Fanconi’s syndrome).

2 - Fructosuria: (Presence of fructose in urine) - Alimentary causes : fructose intake - Metabolic : fructokinase or aldolase B in the
liver.
3 – Galactosuria: (Presence of galactose in urine) - Alimentary : galactose intake - Metabolic : galactokinase or galactose -1- phosphate uridyl transferase in the liver.
