  2. 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 ...

  3. Tela choroidea - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tela_choroidea

    The choroid fissure is C-shaped, runs between the fornix and the thalamus in the body of the ventricle, and between the stria terminalis and hippocampal fimbria in the inferior horn, and is the location of the attachment of the margins of the choroid plexus. [5] [6] In the choroid fissure of the lateral ventricles, the tela choroidea is a ...

  4. Lateral ventricles - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lateral_ventricles

    The trigone of the lateral ventricle is the area where the part of the body forms a junction with the inferior horn and the posterior horn. This area is referred to as the atrium of the lateral ventricle, and is where the choroid plexus is enlarged as the choroid glomus.

  5. 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] CSF ...

  6. Anterior choroidal artery - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anterior_choroidal_artery

    It is typically a branch of the internal carotid artery which supplies the choroid plexus of lateral ventricle and third ventricle as well as numerous structures of the brain. Occlusion of the artery can result in loss of sensation, loss of part of the visual field, and impaired movement, all on the opposite side of the body as the occlusion.

  7. Third ventricle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Third_ventricle

    The roof of the ventricle comprises choroid plexus, forming the inferior central portion of the tela choroidea; immediately above the superior central portion of the tela choroidea is the fornix. The lateral side of the ventricle is marked by a sulcus – the hypothalamic sulcus – from the inferior side of the interventricular foramina to the ...

  8. Ventricular system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ventricular_system

    The ventricles are filled with cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) which bathes and cushions the brain and spinal cord within their bony confines. CSF is produced by modified ependymal cells of the choroid plexus found in all components of the ventricular system except for the cerebral aqueduct and the posterior and anterior horns of the lateral ventricles.

  9. Choroid glomus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Choroid_glomus

    The choroid glomus or glomus choroideum, is an enlargement of the choroid plexus located in the atrium of each lateral ventricle. [1] They are commonly calcified in adults and can easily be seen as a bright tufts on CT imaging. Their main purpose is for the secretion of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). [2]
