telencephalic ventricle

A brain ventricle that is part of a telencephalon. In mammals and species with an evaginated telencephalon, this is one of a pair of lateral structures, one in each hemisphere. Every claim on this page comes from the Leumas anatomy graph and carries its source.

What the telencephalic ventricle is

A brain ventricle that is part of a telencephalon. In mammals and species with an evaginated telencephalon, this is one of a pair of lateral structures, one in each hemisphere. The atlas records it as a tissue at the tissue scale in the human body.

Where the telencephalic ventricle is

It sits within the nervous system. Positioned deliberately as part of this species body plan.

What the telencephalic ventricle connects to

The atlas records 18 typed relationships for it, across 5 kinds of connection. part of telencephalon.

Supply and innervation

This dataset asserts no arterial supply, venous drainage or innervation for the telencephalic ventricle. Only a minority of structures carry those edges here, so an empty answer means nothing has been recorded — not that there is nothing to record.

Questions

Where is the telencephalic ventricle?

It sits within the nervous system. Positioned deliberately as part of this species body plan.

What does the telencephalic ventricle connect to?

Part of: telencephalon.

Is the telencephalic ventricle the same in other species?

Leumas holds the same relationship vocabulary for every species it carries, so where another dataset records this structure you can put the two side by side on /compare.
