The lateral recess or lateral recess of fourth ventricle, is a projection of the fourth ventricle which extends to the lateral border of the brainstem at the pontomedullary junction. [1] [2] At this point the fourth ventricle is at its widest. [1] The lateral recess on each side opens into a lateral aperture (foramen of Luschka) that opens into ...
Fourth ventricle location shown in red (E), pons (B); the floor of the ventricle is to the right, the roof to the left. The fourth ventricle has a roof at its upper (posterior) surface and a floor at its lower (anterior) surface, and side walls formed by the cerebellar peduncles (nerve bundles joining the structure on the posterior side of the ventricle to the structures on the anterior side).
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. [3]
The median aperture (median aperture of fourth ventricle or foramen of Magendie) is an opening at the caudal portion of the roof of the fourth ventricle. [1] It allows the flow of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) from the fourth ventricle into the cisterna magna. [2] [3] The other openings of the fourth ventricle are the lateral apertures - one on ...
The horizontal portion extends transversely across the inferior peduncle, below the striae medullares, and roofs in the lower and posterior part of the lateral recess; it is attached by its lower margin to the inferior peduncle, and partly encloses the choroid plexus, which, however, projects beyond it like a cluster of grapes; and hence this ...
It also contains two cranial nerves – the vestibulocochlear nerve and the facial nerve; the cerebellar flocculus and the lateral recess of the fourth ventricle. [ citation needed ] Clinical significance
The last image we have of Patrick Cagey is of his first moments as a free man. He has just walked out of a 30-day drug treatment center in Georgetown, Kentucky, dressed in gym clothes and carrying a Nike duffel bag.
Its anterior wall, formed by the back of the pons and the medulla oblongata, constitutes the floor of the fourth ventricle. It is covered by a thin layer of grey matter continuous with that of the spinal cord; superficial to this is a thin lamina of neuroglia which constitutes the ependyma of the ventricle and supports a layer of ciliated ...
