  2. Lateral ventricles - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lateral_ventricles

    Lateral ventricles and horns The lateral ventricles connected to the third ventricle by the interventricular foramina. Each lateral ventricle takes the form of an elongated curve, with an additional anterior-facing continuation emerging inferiorly from a point near the posterior end of the curve; the junction is known as the trigone of the lateral ventricle.

  3. Ventricular system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ventricular_system

    The ventricles contained within the rhombencephalon become the fourth ventricle, and the ventricles contained within the mesencephalon become the aqueduct of Sylvius. Separating the anterior horns of the lateral ventricles is the septum pellucidum : a thin, triangular, vertical membrane which runs as a sheet from the corpus callosum down to the ...

  5. Cerebrospinal fluid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cerebrospinal_fluid

    From the fourth ventricle, the fluid passes into the subarachnoid space through four openings – the central canal of the spinal cord, the median aperture, and the two lateral apertures. [1] CSF is present within the subarachnoid space, which covers the brain and spinal cord, and stretches below the end of the spinal cord to the sacrum .

  6. Choroid plexus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Choroid_plexus

    In the lateral ventricles, it is found in the body, and continued in an enlarged amount in the atrium. 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 interventricular foramina are two holes (Latin: foramen, pl. foramina) that connect the left and the right lateral ventricles to the third ventricle. [1]They are located on the underside near the midline of the lateral ventricles, [2] and join the third ventricle where its roof meets its anterior surface. [3]

  9. Septum pellucidum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Septum_pellucidum

    The lateral ventricles sit on either side of the septum. The septum pellucidum consists of two layers or laminae of both white and gray matter . [ 1 ] During fetal development, there is a space between the two laminae called the cave of septum pellucidum that, in ninety percent of cases, disappears during infancy.
