the dorsal grooves of the spinal chord
sulcus medianus dors -> septum medianus dors
sulcus intermed dors
sulcus lateralis dors
ventral grooves of spinal chord
fissura mediana
sulcus lateralis ventralis
grey and white commisures
commisura alba above fissura mediana
commisura grisea above the white one around canalis centralis
at the cornu dorsale
we find its apex with substantia gelatinosa
substantia intermed centralis et lateralis also found
which extends the entire length of the spinal cord and into the medulla oblongata where it becomes the spinal nucleus of the trigeminal nerve
nucl. motorius n. accessorii found
in dors part of cornu ventrale
btw lateral and dorsal horn we find
formatio reticularis; mix of grey and white matter
the white and grey area of spinal chord
substantia grisea and funiculi medullae spinalis (white area)
parts of white area
funiculus dors lat and med
composed of ascending and desending nerve fibers
two enlargements of medulla spinalis
intumescentia cervicalis (nn. thoracici)
intumescentia lumbalis (nn. lumbales)
parts of the medulla spinalis
cervical thoracic lumbar sacral caudal
end of medulla spinalis
conus medullaris with filum terminale(glial and ependymal cells)
inside conus medullaris is the ventriculus terminalis wchis is an enlargemnet of the canalis centralis)
blood supply of the spinal chord
a. spinalis ventr et dors
a. vertebralis (spinal branches)
a. intercostale
sympathetic part of the spinal chord
