Intraventricular hemorrhage.In this case, bleeding happens within the ventricles of your brain -- the little chambers that typically contain cerebral spinal fluid. That may damage your nerve cells and lead to lasting brain injury. Intraventricular hemorrhage is more common in premature babies or babies...
Cerebral edema is the presence of excess fluid within either the cells or the extracellular tissues of the brain. This disorder also causes brain swelling and a rise in intracranial pressure. Head injuries, encephalitis, abscesses, lack of oxygen, tumours, strokes, and toxic agents are the most...
Some infants will display symptoms of cerebral palsy but will not have the disorder. Cerebral palsy symptoms mimic other health issues, such as neurological diseases and spinal cord injuries. It’s important to let your doctor test and diagnose your baby, not only to determine if your baby has...
It mixes with the cerebrospinal fluid that cushions the brain and spinal cord. As blood flows into the cerebral spinal fluid, it increases the pressure that surrounds the brain. The increased pressure can interfere with brain function. In the days that immediately follow the bleeding, chemical ...

Lesions in the cerebral cortex, the basal ganglia and brain stem, the spinal cord, conus, or cauda equina and peripheral lesions can cause various types of neurogenic bladder. Neurogenic detrusor over-activity is frequently associated with upper motor neuron lesions (above the sacral cord). Detruso...
