Abstract The anatomy needed to plan microoperative approaches to the lateral ventricles was examined in 20 cadaveric cerebral hemispheres. The neural, arterial, and venous structures in the walls of the lateral ventricles and the relationship of the lateral ventricles to the third ventricle and basal cisterns were examined. The operative approaches to the lateral ventricle are reviewed.

Atrioventricular (AVC) communication is a group of congenital heart diseases with common atrioventricular connection. The symmetry of the connection and, as a result, anatomy and physiology of atrio-ventricular infl ow plays the key role in possibility of double-ventricle correction in this anomaly. Nowadays there is tendency to mix new concepts with described parameters that characterize AVC in one whole guidelines.

Abstract:
A computational fluid dynamics (CFD) model of the cerebrospinal fluid system was constructed based on a simplified geometry of the brain ventricles and their connecting pathways. The flow is driven by a prescribed sinusoidal motion of the third ventricle lateral walls, with all other boundaries being rigid. The pressure propagation between the third and lateral ventricles was examined and compared to data obtained from a similar geometry with a stenosed aqueduct. It could be shown that the pressure amplitude in the lateral ventricles increases in the presence of aqueduct stenosis. No differenc

Understanding the mechanisms that differentiate both ventricles would facilitate a more effective use of therapeutics and broaden our knowledge of right ventricle (RV) dysfunction.

Energy of the cardiac muscle largely depends on fatty acid oxidation. It is known that the atrium and ventricle have chamber-specific functions, structures, gene expressions, and pathologies. The left ventricle works as a high-pressure chamber to pump blood toward the body, and its muscle wall is thicker than those of the other chambers, suggesting that energy utilization in each of the chambers should be different. However, a chamber-specific pattern of metabolism remains incompletely understood. Recently, innovative techniques have enabled the comprehensive analysis of metabolites. Therefore

ABSTRACT: This study aimed to determine age-related changes of the cerebral ventricles of healthy non-brachycephalic domestic cats by the acquisition of brain MRI images of 12 adult (1 to 6 years), 11 mature (7 to11 years) and 10 geriatric (12 years or more) cats. Our hypothesis is that the cerebral ventricular system of cats expands with increasing age. The possibility of the evidence of the olfactory bulb cavities and temporal horns of the lateral ventricles were evaluated in this study.

Abstract:
Action potential (AP) prolongation is a hallmark of failing myocardium. Functional downregulation of K currents is a prominent feature of cells isolated from failing ventricles. The detailed changes in K current expression differ depending on the species, the region of the heart, and the mechanism of induction of heart failure. We used complementary approaches to study K current downregulation in pacing tachycardia-induced heart failure in the rabbit. The AP duration (APD) at 90% repolarization was significantly longer in cells isolated from failing hearts compared with controls (539 ± 162 fai

To investigate the developmental, physiological and pathophysiological roles of human cardiac myosin light-chain 1 (LC1s), we developed two novel monoclonal antibodies (KA1 and KB1) against human cardiac LC1s and examined LC1s in normal and pathological hearts immunohistochemically. KA1 and KB1 were specific only for atrial LC1 (ALC1) and for both ALC1 and ventricular LC1 (VLC1), respectively, in human hearts. Among human tissues tested, including skeletal muscle, vascular smooth muscle, and liver, KA1 did not crossreact with proteins in any other tissues than atria, whereas KB1 crossreacted w

✓ Panventricular enlargement often follows intraventricular hemorrhage in the premature neonate. During a recent 12-month period, the authors identified five infants who required shunting because of symptomatic post-hemorrhagic hydrocephalus, which was progressive despite serial lumbar punctures and the use of indwelling subcutaneous ventricular reservoirs. In the first 6 months following placement of the initial shunt, four of the infants required an additional shunt for isolated ventricles. Two children had isolation of the lateral ventricles and required bilateral shunts. Two other children

Object Cerebrospinal fluid typically enters the subarachnoid space from the ventricles via the fourth ventricular foramina. However, there is clinical evidence that CSF also flows in the opposite direction. Ventricular reflux of CSF from a cistern is a well-known phenomenon in radioisotope studies in patients with normal-pressure hydrocephalus. Additionally, the presence of ventricular blood in acute subarachnoid hemorrhage is frequently observed. The goal of this investigation was to examine the potential CSF pathways from cisterns to ventricles. The authors examined pathways in rat models in

Fluorescence microscopy was used to determine the number of neurons within these ganglia. There are eight regions of the cat heart that contain intracardiac ganglia. The numbers of neurons found within these intracardiac ganglia vary dramatically. The total number of neurons found in the heart (6,274

The case is reported of a 50-year-old man in whom a xanthogranuloma of the choroid plexus had occluded the left trigone, causing unilateral hydrocephalus of the left temporal horn and neurological symptoms. A review of the literature shows that xanthogranulomas of the glomus of the lateral ventricles differ from the xanthomatous cystic lesions of the third ventricle, which are probably akin to colloid cysts.

In part this reflects the presence of fistulous communication between the cavity of the right hypoplastic right ventricle and the coronary arterial tree.
