The person of a corporate institute and his wife entered into a doctor,s chamber with their first baby.Mother covered his adoring child,s head by a handkerchief.
Young father said to doctor,sir,look at my child.I have in deep tense with my adoring child.Please care him carefully.Doctor observed the child with great care.After some examinations,doctor said that its name is hydrocephalus.Hydro means water and cephalus means brain.So it is meant when water is accumulated in brain.
Doctor also said that Egyptians physicians described this disease 4500 years ago.Father asked the doctor why does it appeared?-in response to doctor said that-
1.Sufficient water is making in body
2.Water is not able to dissolve with blood
3.Meningitis due to germs
4.Brain hemorrhaging,contagious of germs,tumor,
5.Narrowing of water flow line/path
For above reasons it may be appeared.It can be understood by measuring brain.This measurement is called occipitofrontal circumference.It can be 37 cm large after born,then gradually it becomes 52 cm large within 3 years.Saying that child,s father and his baby can wear same cap.To take measurement a tape is just enough.But a specialist should be needed for measurement and decision.Generally front side of the brain,that remains low and soft,becomes high due to water pressure.
Then if you want to understand for cause and condition of this disease,you should take a test a CT scan as well as an ultrasonogram of brain.At same time it should be tested meningocele disease of back.
The sooner doctor had finished above talks then they asked him that is it possible to treat in our country at all?Doctor answered instantly with a smile,yes,there is a nice treatment in our country as well as all over the world.Generally a narrow tube entered into brain which is reached to abdominal that helps to dissolve the excessive CSF with blood.
There is a valve in the tube which makes an obstacle to leak excessive water from brain.It does not see from outside because it is set up below skin.
This operation can also create some complication such as tube may be closed due to water deposition,tube becomes open,and complication of esophagus.Any way,though the patients can be relieved this hazards.
But latest health science discovered a new technology which name is ETV..By this technology,there is made a hole in brain which will be connected third ventricle that is a water cavity.In this way,water can dissolve with blood easily.In this case,operation is seen on computer monitor by an endoscopy machine.But this operation can not bear always fruitful for the patients.Anyway,doctor will take a perfect a decision to see the CT scan report.Either ETV or SUNT is decided by a doctor.
After observing all examinations,doctor had done an operation of the child.Operation became successful with efforts of doctor and co-operation of the relatives.Prior to releasing the patient,patient,s relatives,grand-mother and grand-father came to doctor,s chamber.Grand-mother said to doctor that you escaped us from social mock.
Retired professor who was child,s grandfather,was favor of this technology,asked to doctor,"how do we keep safe from this disease"?
Doctor said,
1.Daily check of pregnancy mother
2.Daily swallowed folic acid during pregnancy
3.Should be followed scientific method of labour
4.Proper care of new born baby
5.Treatment of meningitis if it is exist
It is possible to reduce hydrocephalus to follow above method.
