Increased intracranial pressure
Some degree of acute internal hydrocephalus results from an increased permeability of the choroids plexus, an outpouring of exudates into the ventricular.
This condition, along with edema, congestion of blood vessels, and subarachnoid exudates, increases the intracranial pressure, which causes tri-signs in intracranial pressure : heavy headache and dizziness, jetting-vomiting and hernia formation
![Page 12: Diseases of Nervous System - m-learning.zju.edu.cnm-learning.zju.edu.cn/G2S/eWebEditor/uploadfile/20120522230703576.… · (小脑扁桃体 疝 / 枕骨大孔疝 ... (脑膜炎](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022021502/5af59d777f8b9a4d4d8f5091/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Clinically,
The first symptom of raised intracranial pressure is usually headache.
If intracranial pressure is raised for more than a week or two, papilledema of the head of the optic nerve and retinal hemorrhages may develop secondary to compression of the venous drainage, with consequent congestion of the retinal vasculature.
With increasing severity, there may be dizziness and vomiting progressing to coma.

Cerebral herniation is one of the most ominous
developments in patients with focal space-occupying lesions
or diffuse brain swelling.
Conception: The skull cavity is partly divided into
compartment by dural(硬脑脊膜) folds. Focal enlargement of any
one compartment will tend to displace brain into adjacent
compartments. This is called herniation.

Infectious Disease
A group of diseases with infectivity and epidemic, caused by infectious agents that can be transmitted from one host (person or animal) to another directly or indirectly.
Transmission means that an infectious agent is moved through the environment from an infected host or reservoir to a susceptible host.

Meningitis(脑膜炎)
refers to an inflammatory process of the leptomeninges and CSF within the subarachnoid space.
usually caused by an infection
but chemical meningitis may also occur in response to a nonbacterial irritant introduced into the subarachnoid space.

Pathological features of purulent meningitis
The purulent exudates is most abundant over the surface of the brain, and extension commonly occurs to the spinal meninges.
The infection usually spreads to the choroids plexus and the interior of the ventricles.

The normally clear CSF is cloudy and sometimes frankly purulent.
The meningeal vessels are engorged and stand out prominently.
From the areas of greatest accumulation, tracts of pus can be followed along blood vessels on the surface of the brain.

Microscopically:
Hyperemia, fibrin formation, and inflammatory cells.
The subarachnoid space contains purulent exudate with varying amounts of fibrin.
In most severe cases, the entire subarachnoid space is filled with purulent exudate.
Brain substance unaffected, at least in early stages.

Type B Epidemic Encephalitis
Definition:
Acute inflammation of cerebrospinal parenchyma.
Acute viral infections of the brain have a wide spectrum of manifestations, ranging from a catastrophic acute necrotizing panencephalitis (e.g., neonatal herpes simplex encephalitis) to an infection that affects only specific subpopulations of neurons. (e.g., poliomyelitis).

A great many viruses may cause epidemic encephalitis.
In China, India, Southeast Asia and Korea, as well as Japan,
epidemic encephalitis is caused by encephalitis virus.

3. Perivascular inflammatory cell infiltration
The most characteristic histologic change in acute viral disease is a mononuclear cell infiltrate (lymphocytes, plasma cells, and macrophages), generally located around blood vessels (perivascular cuffing).

microglial nodules
The presence of glial nodules and neuronophagia (individual neuron necrosis and phagocytosis) also suggests viral disease.

Clinicopathologic Association
In acute phase:
Most infected people develop only mild symptoms or no symptoms at all.
In more severe cases:
viremiaHigh fever, chills, headache, nausea, vomiting
Symptoms of nerve cell injury: Tri-signs: High fever-convulsion-respiratory failure.
Clouding of consciousness, somnolence

Sequela
Case-fatality range from 0.3% to 60%, and about 30% cases present serious neurologic sequela.
paresthesias(感觉异常), mental retardation, limb paralysis, facial paralysis

Infection of the brain is almost invariably accompanied by some reaction in the meninges, so that there will be inflammatory cells, usually lymphocytes, in the CSF.
CSF examination shows a raised lymphocyte count, with slightly raised protein and normal glucose, but may be entirely normal.

The most characteristic histologic change in acute viral disease is a mononuclear cell infiltrate (lymphocytes, plasma cells, and macrophages), generally located around blood vessels (perivascular cuffing).
The presence of microglial nodules and neuronophagia (individual neuron necrosis and phagocytosis) also suggests viral disease.
A more direct expression of viral involvement is the presence of intranuclear inclusion bodies in some forms of viral infection. A well- known diagnostic inclusion is the intracytoplasmic Negri body of rabies.
Summary briefly:
![Page 72: Diseases of Nervous System - m-learning.zju.edu.cnm-learning.zju.edu.cn/G2S/eWebEditor/uploadfile/20120522230703576.… · (小脑扁桃体 疝 / 枕骨大孔疝 ... (脑膜炎](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022021502/5af59d777f8b9a4d4d8f5091/html5/thumbnails/72.jpg)
Epidemic encephalitis is a meningoencephalitis characterized by perivascular inflammatory cells, many focal areas of necrosis (softening areas), and selective neuronal necrosis with neuronophagia.
In all cases there is proliferation of microglial cells, which maybe diffuse in pattern or local with glial node formation.
Alterative inflammation commonly in Summer and autumn.
In severe cases there may be a vasculitis, and vascular necrosis.
