A: Enlarged ventricles in the brain may be a sign of normal pressure hydrocephalus. It happens when one or more ventricals, which are normally hollow areas in the brain, have too much cerebrospinal fluid. Cerebrospinal fluid, or CSF, is made and stored in the brain's ventricles.
Contraction of the ventricles means that the intraventricular pressure is higher than the pressure in the artery which forces the blood out of the ventricle and into the aorta or pulmonary artery (depending on which side of the heart youâre looking at).
