  2. Cerebellopontine cistern - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cerebellopontine_cistern

    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]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cerebellopontine_angle

    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.

    Interpeduncular cistern. It is situated at the base of the brain, between the two cerebral peduncles of midbrain and dorsum sellae and continuous below with the pontine cistern and superiorly with the chiasmatic cistern. It contains: The optic chiasm; The bifurcation of the basilar artery; Peduncular segments of the posterior cerebral arteries ...

  5. Cerebellopontine angle syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cerebellopontine_angle...

    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 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 clitoris is the only organ in the human body that exists exclusively for pleasure. Those in the medical community had no reason to assume they were wrong. The anatomical “maps” that anchored their education must have seemed as sturdy and steadfast as Mercator’s, with every organ plotted and every muscle annotated.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cisterna_magna

    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]).
