Cerebral white matter Flashcards
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم
______________________________
White matter is, ,,,,,,axons
Types ?
Myelinated axons
Association
Projection
Commiusral
Association fibers fibers connecting different regions in the same hemisphere which are either ?
Short fibers connecting gyri in same lobe
long fibers connecting gyri in Different lobes
Mention examp fo association fibers
LUCky
1-Superior longutidnal bundle :-
Connects the frontal with occipital lobe and tempral
Fronto occipital deep to it.sepatrated from it by corona radiata
_________________________
2-Inferior longitudinal bundle connecting the temporal with occipital
________________________________
3-Uncinate connecting Broca’s of frontal with Wernicke’s of tempral
__________________________________
4-Cingulae connecting cingulate gyrus with the Parahippocamal it is deep to limbic lobe
Connecting the cerebeal cortex with the lowercenters as brainstem diecnpalon and spinal cord
Projecton fibers forming ciad
Corona radiata
Internal capsule
either ascending or descending
Internal capsule is a band of projection fibers running between masses of grey matter describe relations
Medially: thalamus and Caudate nuceleus
Laterally : Lentifrom Nucleus
It is V shaped having anterior limb genu and posterior limb
sublentiform and retrolentifrom parts
Anterior limb realtions and conterts?
Between caudate medially and lentiform laterally
Contains:
FATR
Frontopontine fibers
Anterior Thalamic Radiation from the thalamus to frontal cortex
CorticoNuclear fivbers are part of pyramidal tract that ends in motor nuclei of cranial nerve
Show what part of intennal capsule involiving it?
GENU
Posterior Limb of Internal capsule relations and contents
Thalamus medially and lenifgorm laterally
Contents :-
FC2S
Forntopontine fibers
Corticospinal fibers antreior UL and pos LL
CorticoRubral fibers
Superior thalamic radiation from VPL/MN Of thalamus to sensory area of cortex SI II
Retrolentiform Part of Internal capsule site + contents
Site behind Leniform
Contents PO2
Paritopontine
OccipitoPontine
Optic Radiation
Sublentiform part of internal capsule site and contents
Below lentiform
Contents :-
PTA
Paritopontine
Tempropontine
Auditroy radiation
Describe blood supply of internal capsule
Upper 1/2 of the anterior and post limbs =Middle cerebral artery
Lower 1/2 of anterior limb + Genu = Anterior cerebral artery
Lower 1/2 of posteiror limb = Posterior communicating + Ant choroidal artery
Sublentifrom and retrolentiform = ? Anterior choroidal artery
Internal capsule is reqynelte labile to cerebrovascular accident so ?
Hemiplegia
hemianasthesia
UMN cranial nerve 7 - 12 lesion
Commisural fibers connect coressponding area in Rt and Lt hemispheres across the midline they include :
3C2H
Corpus callosum
Ant commisue
post commisure
hHebanuslar
Hippocamapl comissures
The largest commisural fibers are?
Corpus callosum
Mention parts of corpus callosum
Rostrum
genu
body
splenium
