Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), clear, colourless liquid that fills and surrounds the brain and the spinal cord and provides a mechanical barrier against shock. Formed primarily in the ventricles of the brain, the cerebrospinal fluid supports the brain and provides lubrication between surrounding bones and the brain and spinal cord. When an individual suffers a head injury, the fluid acts as a cushion, dulling the force by distributing its impact.
The CSF is absorbed by a highly specialized finger-like extension of the arachnoidnoidal membrane surrounding the brain, known as the arachnoid villi. This so called brain fluid has the important functions of cushioning the brain, maintaining pressure within the eye, and cleansing the central nervous system much like the lymphatic system serves the same function in the rest of the body.
