Hydrocephalus: Water in the Brain !
.
$1,750 allows CURE to provide this life saving procedure to a child.
316,000 babies born this year with
hydrocephalus will have no access to neurosurgical care!
Without treatment, hydrocephalus can lead to blindness, brain damage and
ultimately death.
Since 2000 over 5,000 lives have been
saved through CURE, 10 surgeons
have been trained, and ground-breaking research has been shared.
One of the most common infant abnormalities affecting
approximately 400,000 children around the world.
Develops due to an excessive amount of fluid in the ventricles of
the brain.!
