APLASIA : There is only NS Streak Formation
HYPOPLASIA : Failure to growth of all or partial part of NS
There is “Cele”
Formation, or Spina
Bifida Formation
(Occulta /Aperta)
e.g. Meningocele,
Encephalocele,
Myelomeningocele
Spina bifida timbul akibat kegagalan dari
kanalis vertebralis untuk menutup secara
normal karena suatu defek di dalam
perkembangan vertebra
Okulta (tersembunyi) disebabkan oleh
kegagalan penutupan lamina vertebra yang
terlibat, dapat berupa penonjolan yang
menyerupai kantung dari mendinges dan kulit
penutup dan biasanya tidak mengenai jaringan
saraf yang ada dibawahnya. Hal ini disebabkan
oleh tidak menyatunya lengkung-lengkung
vertebra. Spina bifida okulta ditandai dengan
plak rambut yang tumbuh menutupi daerah yang
cacat.Cacat ini terjadi di daerah lumbosakral
(L4-S1)
Aperta cacat yang lengkung
vertebranya tidak terbungkus kulit
(terbuka) sehingga rentan terhadap infeksi
sekunder
Kistika Spina bifida terparah. Tuba neuralis gagal
menutup, lengkung-lengkung vertebra gagal terbentuk,
dan jaringan saraf terpapar. Jaringan sarafnya menonjol
melewati sebuah cacat lengkung vertebra dan kulit
sehingga membentuk kantung mirip kista. Pada spina
bifida kistika bisa terjadi protrusi ruang subarachnoid
yang berisi cerebrospinal melalui defek sehingga
berpeluang terjadi hidrosefalus. Pada beberapa kasus
hanya meninges yang berisi cairan saja yang menonjol
dari daerah cacat (=spina bifida dengan meningokel)
sedangkan pada kasus lain jaringan saraf ikut dalam
kantung tersebut (=spina bifida dengan mieloskisis atau
rakiskisis).
Spina bifida variations
These variations can be grouped as:
Spina bifida aperta : open if the overlying skin is not intact, pending
leakage of cerebrospinal fluid. E.g. : meningocele, meningomyelocele
Spina bifida occulta : occult if the defect is well covered with full
thickness skin. E.g. : (sacral dimple)

HYDROCEPHALUS
Non-communicating hydrocephalus
◦ There is obstruction to CSF
Congenital malformation
Neoplasm
Inflammation
Haemorrhage
Communicating hydrocephalus
◦ There is no obstruction but the reabsorption is
impaired
HYDROCEPHALUS
Primary hydrocephalus
◦ Accompanied by increased intracranial pressure
◦ Due to:
Obstruction
Congenital
Acquired
Impaired CSF absorption
Excess CSF production
Secondary hydrocephalus
◦ Compensatory to loss of cerebral tissue
Sites of Obstruction
Inflammatory exudate and
organizing hemorrhage
1. Subarachnoid space
2. Arachnoid granulation
Intracerebral and
intraventricular neoplasms
3. Choroid plexus
4. Lateral ventricles
5. 3rd ventricle
Neoplasms, hemorrhage,
inflammatory exudate

DISORDERS
TRAUMA
Penetrating wounds produce hemorrhage and blast effects.
Velocity contributes a blast effect to a projectile
High-velocity : it disrupts tissues by its own mass and also
centrifugal blast that enlarges the diameter → immediate death
Low-velocity : Seizures are threat in healed penetrating
wounds, 6-12 mo after : collagenous tissue is displaced in the
brain
• Compensatory mechanism :
temporal lobe displaced downward → transtentorial herniation →
life threatening

Alzheimer Disease
• Insidious and progressive
neurologic disorder
characterized,
Clinically by:
◦ loss of memory (eventual
dementia),
◦ cognitive impairment
Pathologically by :
• Aβ-containing senile
plaques and
neurofibrillary tangles
formed by tau filaments
Parkinsonism (Lewy body dementia)
Parkinsonism, the most common syndrome with Lewy bodies, is a disease
developing in middle age. In older persons, a mixture of cognitive,
autonomic, and motor dysfunction is more common.
• Spongiform encephalopathy:
Kuru and CJD, fatal familial insomnia.
• Transmissible neurodegenerative disease
• Infectious agents is prion protein
It is thought that the normal cellular prion protein, designated PrPc, is
converted via a conformational change to an abnormal form of PrP,
designated PrPSc, that is protease-resistant and can accumulate in
the central nervous system of affected persons.

Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis
ALS results from loss of motor
neurons. This is most striking in the
anterior horn cells of spinal cord with
loss of lower motor neurons, marked
initially by muscle fasciculations.
The loss motor innervation
eventually leads to muscle atrophy.
Astrocytosis is seen in response to
the loss of motor neurons.
With loss of upper motor neurons
there is lateral column degeneration
with gliosis, the so-called "sclerosis"
