61 - FEMORAL TRIANGLE










BOUNDARIES OF FEMORAL CANAL :

It is bounded by:

(superiorly) the inguinal ligament

(medially) the medial border of the adductor longus muscle

(laterally) medial border of the sartorius muscle

Its floor is provided laterally by iliopsoas, medially by pectineus and adductor longus. Its roof is formed by the fascia lata.

The femoral triangle is shaped like the sail of a ship.

Its

60 - Inion



The inion is the most prominent projection of the occipital bone at the posterioinferior (lower rear) part of the skull. The ligamentum nuchae and trapezius muscle attach to it.

The term external occipital protuberance (protuberantia occipitalis externa) is sometimes used as a synonym, but more precisely the term "inion" refers to the highest point of the external occipital protuberance.

The

59 - Third ventricle


The third ventricle (ventriculus tertius) is one of four connected fluid-filled cavities comprising the ventricular system within the human brain. It is a median cleft between the two thalami, and is filled with cerebrospinal fluid (CSF).

It is in the midline, between the left and right lateral ventricles.

It communicates with the lateral ventricles anteriorly by the interventricular foramina

58 - Basal cistern

The interpeduncular cistern (basal cistern or Fossa interpeduncularis) is a wide cavity where the arachnoid extends across between the two temporal lobes.

It encloses the cerebral peduncles and the structures contained in the interpeduncular fossa, and contains the arterial circle of Willis.

57 - Sulci and Gyri of Brain


*Lesion in the broca's area (inferior frontal gyrus) causes broca's aphasia (motor aphasia/expressive aphasia).

*Lesion in the wernicke's aphasia (supramarginal gyrus) of the parietal lobe and upper part of temporal lobe.
