  2. Choroid plexus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Choroid_plexus

    There is no choroid plexus in the anterior horn. In the third ventricle, there is a small amount in the roof that is continuous with that in the body, via the interventricular foramina, the channels that connect the lateral ventricles with the third ventricle. A choroid plexus is in part of the roof of the fourth ventricle.

  3. Tela choroidea - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tela_choroidea

    In the third ventricle, the tela choroidea forms the roof of the ventricle. Two vascular fringes from the lower fold invaginate the roof and form the choroid plexus. [7] The tela choroidea of the fourth ventricle (also known as the triangular lamella) [8] is a double layer of pia mater and ependyma, between the cerebellum and the lower part of ...

  4. Ventricular system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ventricular_system

    [1] [2] Within each ventricle is a region of choroid plexus which produces the circulating cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). The ventricular system is continuous with the central canal of the spinal cord from the fourth ventricle, [3] allowing for the flow of CSF to circulate. [3] [4]

  5. Third ventricle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Third_ventricle

    The third ventricle is one of the four connected cerebral ventricles of the ventricular system within the mammalian brain. It is a slit-like cavity formed in the diencephalon between the two thalami , in the midline between the right and left lateral ventricles , and is filled with cerebrospinal fluid (CSF).

  6. Cerebrospinal fluid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cerebrospinal_fluid

    Most (about two-thirds to 80%) of CSF is produced by the choroid plexus. [1] [2] The choroid plexus is a network of blood vessels present within sections of the four ventricles of the brain. It is present throughout the ventricular system except for the cerebral aqueduct, and the frontal and occipital horns of the lateral ventricles. [21]

  7. Interventricular foramina (neuroanatomy) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interventricular_foramina...

    As channels, they allow cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) produced in the lateral ventricles to reach the third ventricle and then the rest of the brain's ventricular system. The walls of the interventricular foramina also contain choroid plexus , a specialized CSF-producing structure, that is continuous with that of the lateral and third ventricles ...

  8. Fourth ventricle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fourth_ventricle

    Specifically, the fourth ventricle originates from the portion of the tube that is present in the developing rhombencephalon. [3] During the first trimester of pregnancy the central canal expands into the lateral, third and fourth ventricles, connected by thinner channels. [4] Choroid plexuses appear in the ventricles which produce ...
