BRAIN

VENTRICULAR SYSTEM

THE CEREBRAL AQUEDUCT IS LOCATED WHERE?

WITHIN MIDBRAIN CONNECTS 3RD AND 4TH VENTRICLES NO CHOROID PLEXUS

the anterior continuation of the quadrigeminal cistern

ambient cistern between midbrain and medial part of temporal lobe

small amounts of CSF pass between what?

between cells covering the arachnoid granulations most CSF is tported through these cells in membrane-bound vesicles

Important things about the posterior cerebellomedullary cistern

between post surface of medulla and inf surface of cerebellum median aperture of 4th v opens into it alternate site to sample CSF (cisternal puncture)

non-communicating hydrocephalus

caused by obstruction of CSF flow within ventricular system (cerebral aqueduct or IV foramen) from the ventricles to the subarachnoid space ventricles enlarge PROXIMAL to the obstruction

communicating hydrocephalus

caused by: -impaired CSF reabsorption in the arachnoid granulations -obstruction in the subarachnoid space -excess CSF production (rare)

What is the villous structure that extends from ventricular surface (like coral fronds) into the CSF

choroid plexus

The quadrigeminal cistern

cistern of the great cerebral v. between spleium of corpus callosum and superior cerebellar surface, posterior to the midbrain tectum *THE GREAT CEREBRAL V. FORMS AND CROSSES HERE!*

CSF

clear, colorless

the villi of the choroid plexus consist of

core of highly vascularized CT (derived from Pia) covering of simple cuboidal ep-->choroidal epithelial cell layer (derived from ependyma)

normal pressure hydrocephalus is present with the typical triad

gait distubance urinary incontinence mendtal decline *CSF pressure is usually NOT elevated, thought to wax and wane over time

Dilation of 1+ parts of the ventricular system due to abnormal accumulation of CSF

hydrocephalus

reabsorption of CSF depends on

hydrostatic P of CSF being greater than venous blood in the dural sinuses

normal pressure hydrocephalus

in elderly chronically dilated ventricles

What cistern surrounds CNs 9, 10, 11, and 12?

lateral cerebellomedullary cistern -->located lateral to upper medulla *the lateral aperture of the 4th v opens into it

Where is CSF made?

made by choroid plexus in the lateral, 3rd, and 4th ventricles

flow of CSF

made by choroid plexus in ventricles passes through lateral and median aperture of 4th ventricle -->subarachnoid space-->reabsorbed in venous system by arachnoid granulations/villi @ the superior saggital sinus

normal pressure hydrocephalus

mech is not known thought to be a form of communicating hydrocephalus with impaired reabsorption @ the arachnoid granulations

what cistern surrounds CNs 5, 7, and 8

pontocerebellar cistern -located @ jn of pons and cerebellum (pontocerbellar angle)

arachnoid granulations

projections of arachnoid through the dural wall into the lumen of the superior saggital sinus

Tx of normal pressure hydrocephalus

shunting procedure to reduce CSF pressure and volume 30-50% of pts improve
