Age-related Changes in the Vascular Networks of the Lateral Ventricles of the Human Brain

Year: 2025

Abstract: In modern neuromorphology and neurophysiology, the in-depth study of structures responsible for maintaining the fluid balance of the central nervous system has become increasingly important. In particular, the choroid plexuses located within the brain ventricles play a crucial role in maintaining cerebral homeostasis by producing, circulating, and regulating the resorption of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). The physiological condition, morphological integrity, and functional activity of these structures are essential for the normal functioning of brain tissues. When the function of the choroid plexuses is disrupted, it leads to changes in CSF circulation and pressure, resulting in the development of severe neurological pathologies such as hydrocephalus, brain edema, and intracranial hypertension. These processes are especially prevalent in elderly individuals. From this perspective, studying the age-related morphological changes of the choroid plexuses is considered one of the important scientific and practical issues.
