(A-B) (C-D) (E-H) (I-M) (N-R) (S-Z) Aqueductal Stenosis: a narrowing of the aqueduct of Sylvius. This is one cause of obstructive hydrocephalus; it may be treated using a CSF shunt or by a surgical procedure known as an endoscopic third ventriculostomy (ETV) Arachnoid: the middle layer of meninges. It covers the brain and spinal cord smoothly without conforming to the irregularities of their surfaces; CSF flows through the arachnoid space Arachnoid Villi: small projections in the dura mater that project into the dural venous (blood) sinuses. CSF is reabsorbed from the arachnoid space by passing through the arachnoid villi and entering the venous system. Also known as arachnoid granulations
