The blockage of cerebrospinal fluid (csf) outflow in the brain can cause accumulation of fluid, resulting in cranial enlargement
alisha [4.7K]

The correct answer is hydrocephalus.

Hydrocephalus refers to the condition in which the accumulation of fluid takes place in the ventricles (cavities) deep inside the brain. The excess fluid enhances the size of the ventricles and applies pressure on the brain. The cerebrospinal fluid usually flows via the ventricles and bathes the spinal column and the brain.
