The cerebellopontine cistern [2] (also pontocerebellar cistern, [1] cerebellopontine angle cistern, or angle cistern [2]) is a paired subarachnoid cistern at the cerebellopontine angle, an angle created between the cerebellum and the pons on either side. Each cerebellopontine cistern is continuous anteromedially with the prepontine cistern. [2]
The cerebellopontine angle (CPA) (Latin: angulus cerebellopontinus) is located between the cerebellum and the pons. [1] The cerebellopontine angle is the site of the cerebellopontine angle cistern. [2] The cerebellopontine angle is also the site of a set of neurological disorders known as the cerebellopontine angle syndrome.
Cerebellopontine angle cistern. It is situated at the cerebellopontine angle – the lateral angle between the cerebellum and the pons. It contains: The seventh (VII) and eighth (VIII) cranial nerves; The anteroinferior cerebellar artery (AICA) The fifth (V) cranial nerve and the petrosal vein; Quadrigeminal cistern - It is situated dorsal to ...
The cerebellopontine angle syndrome is a distinct neurological syndrome of deficits that can arise due to the closeness of the cerebellopontine angle to specific cranial nerves. [1] Indications include unilateral hearing loss (85%), speech impediments, disequilibrium, tremors or other loss of motor control.

The cisterna magna (posterior cerebellomedullary cistern, [1] or cerebellomedullary cistern [2] [3]) is the largest of the subarachnoid cisterns.It occupies the space created by the angle between the caudal/inferior surface of the cerebellum, and the dorsal/posterior surface of the medulla oblongata (it is created by the arachnoidea that bridges this angle [3]).
Not from the actual human body, of course, but from the anatomical diagrams that purported to represent it. Goss was the esteemed editor of the 25th edition of the seminal classic Gray’s Anatomy . Internationally lauded as the authority on all things anatomical, Gray’s Anatomy had been considered essential for any would-be physician to own ...
The lateral aperture, lateral aperture of fourth ventricle or foramen of Luschka (after anatomist Hubert von Luschka) [1] is an opening at the lateral extremity of either lateral recess of the fourth ventricle opening anteriorly [2] into (sources differ) the pontine cistern [2] /lateral cerebellomedullary cistern at cerebellopontine angle.
