Representative video recording of the CBF of ciliated ependymal cells in the third ventricle. Credit: Nature Neuroscience (2013) doi:10.1038/nn.3401 The role of cilia in ventricular hydraulics is ...

Fetal ventriculomegaly, defined as abnormal enlargement of the atria of the lateral cerebral ventricles (to a diameter >10 mm), can be detected on ultrasonography during the midtrimester of ...

The third ventricle of the brain is a cavity between the visual tubercles filled with cerebrospinal fluid. Sometimes a colloid cyst is formed in it. This is a benign formation, ...

Note the prominent enlargement of the lateral and third ventricles in the setting of a normal sized fourth ventricle (left image). This pattern is one of non-communicating (obstructive) hydrocephalus, ...

The third ventricle which normally has the shape of a slit has now become round. The temporal horns of the lateral ventricles have also become markedly enlarged. Note that no sulci are seen over the ...

On routine head sonography of babies with trisomy 21 (T21) we noticed that the third ventricle (3V) seemed to be larger than expected. Objective: To determine whether the size of the 3V, as ...

Chordoid glioma of the third ventricle is a rare primary central nervous system tumour that poses significant diagnostic and therapeutic challenges. Initially described in the late 1990s, these ...
