Ventricular System
The ventricles are four fluid-filled cavities
located within the brain.
Consist two lateral ventricles, the third
ventricle, and the fourth ventricle.
The fourth ventricle central canal of the
spinal cord
The ventricles are lined throughout with
ependyma & filled with CSF.
Developmentally from the cavity of the
neural tube.

Ventricular System
Lateral Ventricle
The ventricle is a roughly C-shaped cavity
The lateral ventricle ↔ third ventricle by
interventricular foramen.
This opening, which lies in the anterior part of
the medial wall of the ventricle, is bounded
anteriorly by the anterior column of the fornix
and posteriorly by the anterior end of the
thalamus.

Ventricular System
Lateral Ventricle
The body of the lateral ventricle extends from the
interventricular foramen The body of the lateral
ventricle has a roof, a floor, and a medial wall
• Roof undersurface of the corpus callosum.
• floor body of the caudate nucleus and the
lateral margin of the thalamus.
• medial wall the septum pellucidum
The choroid plexus of the ventricle ventricle
through the slitlike gap between the body of the fornix
and the superior surface of the thalamus.

Ventricular System
Lateral Ventricle
The anterior horn of the lateral ventricle extends
forward into the frontal lobe
The anterior horn has a roof, a floor, and a medial wall.
• The roof undersurface of corpus callosum &
genu
• The floor head of the caudate nucleus & small
portion superior surface of the rostrum
• medial wall septum pellucidum and the anterior
column of the fornix.

Ventricular System
Lateral Ventricle
The posterior horn of the lateral ventricle extends
posteriorly into the occipital lobe
The roof and lateral wall are formed by the fibers of
the tapetum of the corpus callosum
The medial wall of the posterior horn has two
elevations, called the forceps major and calcar avis.

Lateral Ventricle
The inferior horn of the lateral ventricle extends
anteriorly into the temporal lobe.
The inferior horn has a roof and a floor
• The roof inferior surface of the tapetum of the
corpus callosum & tail of the caudate nucleus.
• The floor laterally by the collateral eminence,
produced by the collateral fissure, and medially by
the hippocampus.

Third Ventricle
slitlike cleft between the two thalami.
communicates anteriorly with the lateral ventricles
through the interventricular foramina (of Monro)
posteriorly with the fourth ventricle through the
cerebral aqueduct (of Sylvius)

Fourth Ventricle
The fourth ventricle is a tent-shaped cavity
it is situated anterior to the cerebellum and posterior
to the pons and the superior half of the medulla
oblongata
It is lined with ependyma
The fourth ventricle possesses lateral boundaries, a
roof, and a rhomboid-shaped floor.
Boundary :
• Lateral by the inferior cerebellar peduncle &
superior cerebellar peduncle.
• Roof by 2 superior cerebellar peduncles and
inferior medullary velum

Subarachnoid Space
The subarachnoid space is the interval between the
arachnoid mater and pia mater
filled with CSF and contains the large blood vessels of
the
Inferiorly, the subarachnoid space extends beyond
the lower end of the spinal cord and invests the cauda
equina
The subarachnoid space ends below at the level of the
interval between the second and third sacral
vertebrae..

BBB & BCSB
BBB permeability is inversely related to the size of the molecules and directly related to their lipid solubility.
Gases and water pass readily through the barrier, whereas glucose and electrolytes pass more slowly.
The barrier is almost impermeable to plasma proteins and other large organic molecules.
Compounds with molecular weights of about 60,000 and higher remain within the blood circulatory
system.

Clinical Corelations
Optic Nerve & Papilledema
The optic nerves are surrounded by sheaths derived from the pia mater, arachnoid mater, and dura
mater.
↑ CSF pressure caused by an intracranial tumor will compress retinal vein congestion of the
retinal vein, bulging forward of the optic disc, and edema of the disc (papilledema)
Hydrocephalus
abnormal increase in CSF volume within the skull.
hydrocephalus with ↑ CSF pressure (1) abnormal increase in CSF formation, (2) blockage of CSF
circulation, or (3) diminished CSF absorption.
Rarely, normal CSF pressure exhibit compensatory hypoplasia or atrophy of the brain substance.
Two varieties of hydrocephalus noncommunicating and communicating
Clinical Corelations
CSF LEAKAGE
CSF leakage from the subarachnoideal cavity can occur after medical treatment on and around the
encephalon, spinal cord, and meninges.
These medical procedures include surgery to the lumbar vertebrae, injection of the epidurale, and CSF
aspiration.
The clinical consequences of this include dizziness, nausea, fatigue and a metallic taste in the mouth.
Other effects also include facial nerve weakness and double vision.
Meningitis
infection that rarely occurs in leptomeninges via the blood route, direct spread (eg injury) or from the
nasal cavity through the lamina cribrosa on the ethmoidale bone.
Patients may experience mild headaches, fever, drowsiness and nausea. As the infection develops,
