  2. Septum pellucidum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Septum_pellucidum

    The septum pellucidum (Latin for "translucent wall") is a thin, triangular, vertical double membrane separating the anterior horns of the left and right lateral ventricles of the brain. It runs as a sheet from the corpus callosum down to the fornix. The septum is not present in the syndrome septo-optic dysplasia.

  3. Fornix (neuroanatomy) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fornix_(neuroanatomy)

    The bundles of fibers come together in the midline of the brain, forming the body of the fornix. The lower edge of the septum pellucidum (the membrane that separates the lateral ventricles) is attached to the upper face of the fornix body. The body of the fornix travels anteriorly and divides again near the anterior commissure. The left and ...

  4. Ventricular system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ventricular_system

    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 fornix. During the third month of fetal development, a space forms between two septal laminae, known as the cave of septum pellucidum (CSP), which is a marker for ...

  5. Lateral ventricles - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lateral_ventricles

    The body of the lateral ventricle, or central part is the part of the ventricle between the anterior horn and the trigone. Its roof is bound by the tapetum of the corpus callosum - and is separated medially from the other lateral ventricle by the septum pellucidum. The tail of the caudate nucleus forms the upper portion of the lateral edge, but ...

  6. Septal area - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Septal_area

    The septal area (medial olfactory area), consisting of the lateral septum and medial septum, is an area in the lower, posterior part of the medial surface of the frontal lobe, and refers to the nearby septum pellucidum. The septal nuclei are located in this area.

  7. Septum verum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Septum_verum

    Septum Verum (true septum) is a region in the lower medial part of the telencephalon that separates the two cerebral hemispheres.. The human septum consists of two parts: the septum pellucidum (translucent septum), a thin membrane consisting of white matter and glial cells that separate the lateral ventricles, and the lower, precommisural septum verum, which consists of nuclei and grey matter.

  8. Septal veins - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Septal_veins

    The septal veins drain blood from the septum pellucidum bilaterally [2] and terminate at the venous angle formed with the thalamostriate veins. [4] Research by Jonathan Roth et al., 2010, has shown that the septal veins are often asymmetrical. [5]

  9. Cave of septum pellucidum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cave_of_septum_pellucidum

    The cave of septum pellucidum (CSP), cavum septi pellucidi, or cavity of septum pellucidum is a slit-like space in the septum pellucidum that is present in fetuses but usually fuses during infancy. The septum pellucidum is a thin, laminated translucent vertical membrane in the midline of the brain separating the anterior horns of the right and ...
