  2. Lateral ventricles - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lateral_ventricles

    The anterior horn of the lateral ventricle is also known as the frontal horn as it extends into the frontal lobe. The anterior horn connects to the third ventricle, via the interventricular foramen. [1] This portion of the lateral ventricle impinges on the frontal lobe, passing anteriorly and laterally, with slight inclination inferiorly.

  3. Colpocephaly - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colpocephaly

    Colpocephaly is a cephalic disorder involving the disproportionate enlargement of the occipital horns of the lateral ventricles and is usually diagnosed early after birth due to seizures. It is a nonspecific finding and is associated with multiple neurological syndromes , including agenesis of the corpus callosum , Chiari malformation ...

  4. Calcar avis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calcar_avis

    The calcar avis, previously known as the hippocampus minor, [1] is an involution of the wall of the lateral ventricle's posterior cornu produced by the calcarine fissure. [ 2 ] It is sometimes visible on ultrasonogram [ 3 ] and can resemble a clot .

  6. Anterior horn - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anterior_horn

    The term anterior horn (also frontal horn, anterior cornu, frontal cornu) may refer to either of two separate anatomical structures within the central nervous system: anterior horn of lateral ventricle in the brain, which passes forward, laterally, and slightly downward from the interventricular foramen into the frontal lobe

  7. 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 ...

  8. Brain asymmetry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brain_asymmetry

    Rightward asymmetry can be seen in the right central sulcus (potentially suggesting increased connectivity between motor and somatosensory cortices in the left side of the brain), lateral ventricle, entorhinal cortex, amygdala and temporo-parieto-occipital area. Sex-dependent brain asymmetries are also common. For example, human male brains are ...

  9. Hippocampus anatomy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hippocampus_anatomy

    Coronal section of inferior horn of lateral ventricle. Fimbria labeled at center left and alveus to the right. Fimbria-fornix fibers are the hippocampal and subicular gateway to and from subcortical brain regions. [10] [11] Different parts of this system are given different names: White myelinated fibers that cover the ventricular (deep) parts ...
