This subject was investigated.<\/jats:p><jats:p>\n          Methods\u2003Twenty-four male (\u223c380\u2009g) Wistar rats were used in this study. The animals were divided into three groups, as the control, sham and study groups. The study group was further divided into two groups as the group exposed to low or high dose of alcohol. The choroid plexuses and intraventricular ependymal cells and ventricle volumes were assessed and compared statistically.<\/jats:p><jats:p>\n          Results\u2003Degenerated epithelial cell density of 22\u2009\u00b1\u20095, 56\u2009\u00b1\u200911, 175\u2009\u00b1\u200937, and 356\u2009\u00b1\u200985\/mm3 was found in the control, sham, low alcohol exposure, and high alcohol exposure groups, respectively. The Evans index was &lt;34% in the control group, &gt;36% in the sham group, &gt;40% in the group exposed to low alcohol dose (low-dose alcohol group), and &gt;50% in the group exposed to high dose of alcohol (high-dose alcohol group).<\/jats:p><jats:p>\n          Conclusions\u2003It was found that alcohol exposure caused choroid plexus and ependymal cell degeneration with ciliopathy and enlarged lateral ventricles or hydrocephalus. In the COVID-19 pandemic era, our findings are functionally important, because alcohol has often been used for hygiene and prevention of transmission of the Sars-Cov-2-virus.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1055\/a-1962-1491","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,10,17]],"date-time":"2022-10-17T23:16:05Z","timestamp":1666048565000},"page":"355-360","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":6,"title":["Important Finding for COVID-19 Pandemic: Hydrocephalus-producing effect of Vaporized Alcohol Disinfectant"],"prefix":"10.1055","volume":"85","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-8189-2877","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Ayhan","family":"Kanat","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neurosurgery, Recep Tayyip Erdogan University, Medical Faculty, Rize, Turkey"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Mehmet Dumlu","family":"Aydin","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neurosurgery, Ataturk University, Medical Faculty, Erzurum, Turkey"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Balkan","family":"Sahin","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neurosurgery, Sisli Etfal Research and Education Hospital, Istanbul Turkey"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Iskender Samet","family":"Daltaban","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neurosurgery, Kanuni Research and Training Hospital, Trabzon, Turkey"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Mehmet Selim","family":"Gel","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neurosurgery, Kanuni Research and Training Hospital, Trabzon, Turkey"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-8689-0571","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Ali Riza","family":"Guvercin","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neurosurgery, Karadeniz Technical University, Medical Faculty, Trabzon, Turkey"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Rabia","family":"Demirtas","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pathology, Ataturk University, Medical Faculty, Erzurum, Turkey"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"194","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,2,24]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"106495","DOI":"10.1016\/j.clineuro.2021.106495","article-title":"COVID-19 infection produces subarachnoid hemorrhage; acting now to understand its cause: a short communication","volume":"202","author":"O E Batcik","year":"2021","journal-title":"Clin Neurol Neurosurg"},{"key":"ref2","first-page":"30","volume-title":"COVID-19-related cardiovascular complications: stroke","author":"A Kanat","year":"2021"},{"issue":"04","key":"ref3","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"321","DOI":"10.1055\/s-0042-1743108","article-title":"Impact of COVID-19 on the neurosurgical resident training program: an early experience","volume":"83","author":"M Omer","year":"2022","journal-title":"J Neurol Surg A Cent Eur Neurosurg"},{"issue":"04","key":"ref4","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"314","DOI":"10.1055\/s-0041-1739225","article-title":"Declining numbers of neurosurgical emergencies at a german university medical center during the coronavirus lockdown","volume":"83","author":"J Falter","year":"2022","journal-title":"J Neurol Surg A Cent Eur Neurosurg"},{"issue":"12","key":"ref5","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"963","DOI":"10.1016\/j.wneu.2017.07.058","article-title":"Letter to the editor regarding \u201cPredictors of shunt-dependent hydrocephalus after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage?
