Nervous tissue
Spina Bifida
Incomplete closure of caudal end of neural tube
Spina Bifida -Occulta
Incomplete closure of vertebrae
Spina Bifida - Meningocele
Pocket of CSF is outside of vertebral column
Spina Bifida - Myelomenigocele
Spinal cord and mengines outside of body
Encephalocele
Sace lik protrusion of brain and surrounding membranes
Anencephaly
Incomplete closure of rostral end of neural tube
Lack of telencephalon (cerebrum)
Part of brain missing
Flexure Points
Pontine —> 4th ventricle
Cephalic—> midbrain/spinal cord
Cervical–> where brain stem ends
Choroid Plexus
Found in forebrain and 4th ventricle
Made of ependymal cells to filter blood and form CSF
Insula
Focal point that telencephalon (forebrain) grows around
Corpus Callosum
Connects L/R hemispheres
Anterior Commissure
Connects temporal lobes
Radial Migration
Somal migration (cell bodies)
Migrates straight up
Guided by radial glial cells
