приклади

In infants and children, the most common reason for doing a lumbar puncture is to look for an infection of the meninges , the membrane covering the brain and spinal cord.

Coxsackie viruses can also cause meningitis, an infection of the meninges (the three membranes that envelop the brain and spinal cord), and rarely, encephalitis, a brain infection.

If the infection spreads to the meninges (the membranes that cover the brain and spinal cord) meningitis can develop.

Moving inwards from the skull towards the brain, or from the vertebral canal towards the spinal cord, the three meninges are: dura mater or pachymeninx (Greek pachy, meaning thick), arachnoid mater, and pia mater.

Meningitis is an inflammation of the meninges , the membranes that cover the brain and spinal cord.
