ventricular block

Etymology: L, ventriculus + OFr, bloc

an obstruction of the flow of cerebrospinal fluid. Causes usually are closure of the foramina of Magendie or Luschka. The condition results in a distension of the brain ventricles because of an increased accumulation of cerebrospinal fluid. See also hydrocephalus.
