    Ventricular System & CSF: Dr. Mohd. A/Salam Nurein Anatomy-Medicine - Karary

    Uploaded by

    عبد الله الإمام
    The document discusses the ventricular system and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). It describes the four ventricles in the brain and how CSF is produced by the choroid plexus and circulates through the ventricles and subarachnoid space before being absorbed into venous sinuses. CSF provides protection and buoyancy to the brain, acts as a shock absorber, and carries nutrients and removes waste. Abnormalities can include hydrocephalus from excess production or reduced absorption of CSF, as well as reduced CSF amount from head injuries or spinal cord defects.

    Ventricular System

     Ventricles of the brain are cavities lined


    by special epithelium called ependymal
    cells
     Epithelium thrown into folds forming
    choroid plexus

    Dr. Mohd. A/Salam


    Cont …

     Lateral ventricles in each cerebral


    hemisphere
     Third ventricle between diencephalons
     Fourth ventricle in hind brain

    Dr. Mohd. A/Salam


    Cont …

     Interventricular foramen between lateral


    & third ventricle
     Cerebral Aqueduct of Sylvius in
    midbrain between third & fourth vents.
     Foramen of Lushcka & Magenda
    between 4th and subarachnoid space.

    Epithelium of ventricles
    • Simple cuboidal cells = epindymal cells
    • Villi in the ventricular surface
    • Basal surface applied to foot processes of
    astrocytes
    • Some cells have elongated processes,
    passing through astrocytes to reach blood
    capillaries = tanycytes

    Cerebrospinal fluid

     Crystal clear fluid produced by choroid


    plexus circulate in subarachnoid space
    absorbed in the venous sinuses
     Ultrafiltrate of plasma
     70% Secreted by choroid plexus cells
    (tanycytes)
     30% by capillary bed &metabolic water
    production

    Dr. Mohd. A/Salam


    Composition

     Blood  CSF
     6500mg/100g  2500mg/100gm
    protein protein
     Less Na, Cl, Mg.  More Na, Cl, Mg
     More K, Ca,&  Less K, Ca &
    glucose glucose
     Pressure 100 mmHg  Pressure is10 to15
    mmHg
     Cells 5/cc mainly
    lymphocytes

    Dr. Mohd. A/Salam


    Circulation

     Intraventricular space to subarachnoid


    space
     Arachnoid granulations to dural venous
    sinus (SSS)

    Dr. Mohd. A/Salam


    Cont …

     Total amount 140 mls, 25 mls


    intraventricular space
     Rate of production 0.35 – 0.40ml/min
     Turnover 50% is replaced every 6 hours

    Functions

     Weight of brain outside CSF = 1500gms


     Weight of brain inside CSF = 50 gms
     Stabilizing brain during head movement
     Shock absorber.
     Lymph of brain.

    Dr. Mohd. A/Salam


    Abnormalities

     Hydrocephalus
     Excess production called communicating
     Less absorption called obstructive

    Dr. Mohd. A/Salam


    Dr. Mohd. A/Salam
    Cont …

     Reduced amount due to loss


     Head injury leads to fracture base
     Spinal cord defects (spina bifida)
