What structures make up the cauda equina?
dorsal and ventral nerve roots
080813_FM201_SelfTest_CNS-QandAe
location difference and relationship between spinal nerve and spinal segment
A spinal cord segment is defined as a length of cord that gives rise to one pair of spinal nerves.

Sacral spinal cord segments are located to T11-L1 but sacral spinal nerve leave through intervertebral foramen down in the S region of vertebral column
080813_FM201_SelfTest_CNS-QandAe
epidural space:
1) real or potential?
2) hematoma here- what does it look like?
3) temporal skull fracture--> middle meningeal artery rupture does ?
1) potential space between dura and skull
2) epidural hematoma=football
3) epidural hematoma pushes on temporal lobe --> herniation through tentorial notch --> compress brainstem and kill
080813_FM201_SelfTest_CNS-QandAe
subdural space
1) what vessel bleeds cause this?
2) where is the space?
3) hematoma look like what?
1) bridging veins = subdural hematoma
2) subdural= between dura and arachnoid
3) subdural hematoma =crescent
080813_FM201_SelfTest_CNS-QandAe
What is the falx cerebri
inner layer of fused dura in between hemispehres

prevents banging
080813_FM201_SelfTest_CNS-QandAe
What’s the tentorium cerebelli
inner layer of fused dura between cerebellum and occipital-temporal hemispheres
080813_FM201_SelfTest_CNS-QandAe
What part of the CNS normally passes through the midline notch in the tentorium
midbrain (this is how herniating temporal lobe in an epidural hematoma can compress midbrain)
080813_FM201_SelfTest_CNS-QandAe
What passes through the subarachnoid space?
CSF and major blood vessels that cover brain surface
080813_FM201_SelfTest_CNS-QandAe
lateral ventricles pass through which lobes?
ALL 4
080813_FM201_SelfTest_CNS-QandAe
which way does CSF flow?
lateral vent--> foramin of monro --> third --> cerebral aq --> 4th ventricles--> medial/lateral foramen (magendi) -->subarachnoid space and cisterns
080813_FM201_SelfTest_CNS-QandAe
where are the choroid plexi located?
lateral,third and 4th ventricles
080813_FM201_SelfTest_CNS-QandAe
where are the arachnoid granulations? where is the CSF absorbed into?
superior sagittal sinus=dural venous system (one way transport)
080813_FM201_SelfTest_CNS-QandAe
what does a subarachnoid hematoma look like?
it would go into (outline in CT) fissures and sulci (between arachnoid and pia layer) AND the cisterns around brain stem
080813_FM201_SelfTest_CNS-QandAe
nucleus/ganglion=gray or white matter?
gray
080813_FM201_L_PreviewCNS
tract= gray or white matter?
white
080813_FM201_L_PreviewCNS
Gray matter contains what 3 things?
cell bodies
dendrites
axons
080813_FM201_L_PreviewCNS
4 components of the brainstem?
1) Cranial nerves and nuclei (somatic and autonomic)
2) long tracts (traveling between SC and higher CNS
3) CEREBELLAR circuitry
4) RETicular formation (consciousness and HR control)
080813_FM201_L_PreviewCNS
What is the reticular formation?
Located where?
In the brainstem
Controls HR and consciousness
080813_FM201_L_PreviewCNS
Function of hyothalamus?
Endocrine
Autonomic (drive)
memory
080813_FM201_L_PreviewCNS
Components of the cerebral hemisphere? and functions
1) cortex (motor, sensory, emotion, higher thinking)

2) deep white matter (connections)
