aqueduct of sylvius การใช้

• In reference to bobble-head doll syndrome, a third ventricular cystic lesion causes an obstruction in the foramina of Monro, which communicates with the lateral ventricles, and the proximal, cerebral aqueduct of Sylvius, which communicates with the fourth ventricle.
• Reissner s fiber grows caudally by the addition of those glycoproteins at its cephalic end and extends along the brain aqueduct ( Aqueduct of Sylvius ), and the entire length of the central canal of the spinal cord, growing continuously in the caudal direction.
• The aqueduct of Sylvius is the channel which connects the third ventricle to the fourth ventricle and is the narrowest part of the CSF pathway with a mean cross-sectional area of 0.5 mm 2 in children and 0.8 mm 2 in adults.
• Although the cerebral aqueduct ( Aqueduct of Sylvius ) and Sylvian ( lateral ) sulcus of the brain have been said to be his contributions to anatomy, the aqueduct was described by Galen nearly 1300 years before, albeit the name aqueduct in this context was first mentioned by another Sylvius ( Franciscus Sylvius, 1614-1672 ), who apparently also described the sulcus which bears his name.
