Brain lies upon the  skull base and it plays an important role in separating the human brain with  other structures in the head. Skull base has numerous openings and many blood  vessels and nerves pass through such openings.<\/p>\n<h2><a href=\"#\" title=\"What are the skull base  related diseases and conditions?\">What are the skull base  related diseases and conditions?<\/a><\/h2>\n<h3>Cerebrospinal Fluid (CSF) leak<\/h3>\n<p>CSF is a colorless and clear  fluid that flows through the brain and circulates around the brain surface and  spinal cord. This liquid nourishes the \u2018central nervous system\u2019, takes out  chemicals and wastes from the system, and functions as the cushion to the  brain. CSF leak is the condition when this fluid leaks out through the skull  bone to ears or nose.This rare condition could result from an injury on the  head or brain or sinus surgery. Watch over symptoms such as headache, visual  blurredness, nasal drain, or ringing in the ears.<\/p>\n<h3>Pituitary tumors<\/h3>\n<p>Pituitary gland located in the  brain is a peasized organ that is the most vital hormoneproducing gland in our  body.

In the head and neck, glomus  tumors could arise in several parts \u2013 closer to the inner ear, middle ear, or carotid  arteries (the blood vessels that carry oxygen-rich blood to the brain, head,  and face). Glomus tumors are associated with facial paralysis and hearing  impairment.<\/p>\n<h3>Vestibular Schwannoma<\/h3>\n<p>Vestibular system comprises  the parts of the inner ear and brain.This system controls the balance and eye  movements. Vestibular schwannoma is a noncancerous tumor in the cells  of the vestibulocochlear nerve that forms myelin. The common symptoms include  headaches, dizziness, hearing loss, ringing in the ear, facial numbness, or  unsteadiness and problems in balancing the body.<\/p>\n<h3>Nasopharyngeal Angiofibroma<\/h3>\n<p>This is another noncancerous  tumor that develops in the back of the nasal cavity andsaid to be caused by  hormonal factors.
