Where is CSF found, and what are the inner/outer borders of this?
|
subarachnoid space
pia (inner), arachnoid (outer) |
|
|
What are the small bilateral projections of the pia mater that are attached laterally to the dura mater?
|
denticulate ligaments
|
|
|
*these are visible on both the inner portion of the skull and top of dura in removed brain*
What are the cauliflower like bumps on the dura? What are the primary branching arteries that you see? |
Arachnoid granulations (lateral to superior sagittal sinus)
*Middle Meningeal Arteries: supply the dura mater (the outermost meninges) and the calvaria |
|
|
What are the two "horizontal" sutures of the calvaria?
|
coronal suture & Lamboid suture
|
|
|
what are the two layers of the dura?
|
Endosteal layer
Meningeal layer |
|
|
* What are the three dural folds? where is each located?
|
Falx cerebri: septum between two cerebral hemispheres
Falx cerebelli: separates cerbellar hemispheres Tentorium cerebelli: transverses between occipital lobes superiorly and cerebellum inferiorly |
|
|
What "areas" drain the blood from the brain?
|
Dural venous sinuses
|
|
|
Which sinus is located between the falx cerebri and the tentorium cerebelli?
|
straight sinus
|
|
|
Where is the inferior sagittal sinus located?
|
along the "free" inferior border of the falx cerebri
|
|
|
What drains into the junction of the inferior sagittal sinus and the straight sinus?
|
Great cerebral vein.
|
|
|
Which sinus runs along the lateral edges of the tentorium cerebelli from the internal occipital protuberance to the petrous portion of the temporal bones?
|
Transverse sinuses
|
|
|
Which is the S-shaped dural sinus that end bilaterally at the jugular foramen / start of jugular foramen?
|
Sigmoid sinus
|
|
|
Where is the Cavernous sinus located?
|
next to the sella turcica
|
|
|
* What separates the temporal lobe from the frontal and parietal lobes?
|
Lateral Sulcus
|
|
|
* What separates the primary motor cortex from the primary sensory cortex?
|
Central Sulcus
|
|
|
which nerve sits between the AICA and the Labyrinthe aa?
|
Abducens (VI)
|
|
|
Which nerve sits between the superior cerebral artery and the posterior cerebral artery?
|
oculomotor n. (CN III)
|
|
|
What is the largest branch of the Internal Carotid that courses laterally to the Temporal Lobe through the Lateral Sulcus?
|
Middle cerebral artery
|
|
|
what is formed by the union of the Internal Carotid and Vertebral Arteries (surrounding optic chiasma and stalk of the pituitary)?
|
Cerebral Arterial Circle (Circle of Willis)
|
|
|
What connects the two lateral ventricles?
|
Interventricular foramina
|
