What is a ventricle?

Cardiology in the Young, 2011
AbstractOn the basis of both developmental and morphological evidence, we would suggest that a ventricle is best defined as any chamber within the ventricular mass possessing an apical trabecular component. Such ventricles can be of right or left morphology, and always coexist.

Trapped Third Ventricle

Acta Neurochirurgica, 2001
The authors report the case of a 29-year-old female who presented with symptoms of shunt dysfunction 11 years after first being shunted for an aqueductal stenosis. After numerous revisions she developed an isolated third ventricle, necessitating triventricular shunting to obtain a new equilibrium.

Hemangioblastoma of the Third Ventricle

Neurosurgery, 1984
Abstract A case of intraventricular hemangioblastoma not associated with von Hippel-Lindau disease is presented. Only one other case of intraventricular hemangioblastoma has been reported. The literature on supratentorial hemangioblastomas is reviewed, and the problems of histological identification of such lesions are discussed.

The ventricles

1981
Publisher Summary This chapter discusses the location and function of ventricles within the brain. Within the substance of the brain are a series of four cavities of varying sizes called ventricles. The largest of these are the two C-shaped lateral ventricles, each of which lies deep in the cerebral hemispheres.

Tumors of the lateral ventricles

Neurosurgical Review, 1991
Tumors are only rarely found in the lateral ventricles. Although various oncotypes of these tumors differ in growth rate and invasiveness they present the same clinical pattern with the same diagnostic and surgical problems. Thus we can consider them as a group. This series comprises 51 primary tumors arising strictly from the structures of the lateral

Myxoma of the Left Ventricle

The Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgeon, 1986
We report a case of left ventricular myxoma in a 19-year-old man which presented as intermittent aortic valve obstruction. Echocardiography provided a comprehensive diagnosis, and excision through a left ventriculotomy was safely accomplished.

Noncompaction of the Right Ventricle

Pediatric Cardiology, 2010
Noncompaction of the ventricular myocardium is a disease characterized by an increase of the ventricular trabecular meshwork caused by arrest of the normal endomyocardial morphogenesis (Figs. 1, 2, 3). In accordance with the normal human anatomy, the left ventricular wall is well compacted with a few thin trabeculae; on the contrary, the normal right ...

The right ventricle

2011
Because the right ventricle (RV) has a much more complex geometry compared to the left ventricle, assessment of its volume and function is more challenging using two-dimensional (2D) echocardiographic image planes. This is due to the fact that no simple three-dimensional (3D) geometric model accurately represents this chamber even in the absence of ...

Slit ventricles as a cause of isolated ventricles after shunting

Child's Nervous System, 1985
In a follow-up study of 164 hydrocephalic children without tumors treated with ventriculoperitoneal shunts, 46 (28.0%) developed slit ventricles, 5 (3.0%) developed isolated fourth ventricles, and 4 (2.4%) developed isolated unilateral hydrocephalus. All of the patients with isolated unilateral hydrocephalus and 3 with isolated fourth ventricles had ...

Single Ventricle Strategy for Uhl's Anomaly of the Right Ventricle

The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 2010
Uhl's anomaly is a rare condition and surgical techniques are few and have had variable success. We present a novel and successful surgical technique to treat this difficult condition.
