Additional research into canine brain tumors could help find better ways to extend the lives of dogs suffering from the disease. Because brain tumors in dogs are similar to those in humans, any new findings could help human patients too. To help find new forms of treatment, we have established a fundraising effort in honor of our dog, JoJo, who passed away from meningioma July 21, 1999. All gifts are sent directly to the University of Illinois which administers the fund. Contributions may be made in honor of an individual or pet.

It occurs when there is an obstruction along the fluid pathway, which prevents the fluid from being absorbed. When this happens, the continuous production of CSF eventually leads to excess fluid. The most common form of hydrocephalus is congenital hydrocephalus.
