CCSVI (Chronic Cerebrospinal Venous Insufficiency)

Chronic Cerebrospinal Venous Insufficiency (CCSVI) is a condition where abnormal blood flow occurs in the veins draining blood from the brain and spinal cord. Normally, these veins help remove waste and maintain healthy circulation. In CCSVI, narrowed or blocked veins can cause blood to pool or flow improperly, potentially leading to increased pressure and circulation issues. Some researchers have explored its link to neurological conditions like multiple sclerosis, though evidence remains inconclusive. Diagnosis typically involves imaging tests, and treatments may include procedures to improve vein flow. CCSVI's role in neurological health is still under investigation.
