The Morphometric Study of Third Ventricle and Diencephelon by Computerised Tomography
نویسنده
چکیده
Aims of this morphometric study was to analyze the size of third ventricle in relation to the dimension of diencephelon in humans. Ventricular size of males and females was compared. Changes in normal ventricular size with the corresponding changes in the dimension of diencephelon during ageing was also studied and statistically analyzed .The CT images of 112 adult individuals (Age Group 21-60) and 88 ageing individuals (Age above 61) was studied in both males and females. This study suggests that there is negative co-relation of age with dimensions of diencephalon and diencephalon volume is reduced with age. Also there is positive co-relation of age with dimensions of third ventricle and the volume of the third ventricle is enlarged with physiologic ageing.

Familial colloid cyst of the third ventricle is very rare. This is one of the two largest families reported and the first in which all affected members are siblings. One asymptomatic sister was found by screening, emphasizing the value of screening. A brother and two sisters from a family consisting of three brothers and three sisters who were diagnosed as having colloid cyst of the third v...
متن کاملSubvalvular membrane on the left ventricular outflow tract: multidetector computerised tomography imaging.
In this report, we describe a patient with a subvalvular membrane on the left ventricular outflow tract. Discrete subvalvular membrane is a cause of left ventricular outflow tract narrowing. Multidetector computerised tomography can demonstrate the anatomical three-dimensional view of this region and guide for surgery.
متن کاملEndoscopic Treatment of Colloid Cysts of Third Ventricle: Study of Three Cases
Introduction: Colloid cyst of the third ventricle is a rare intracranial benign tumor. Traditionally, treatment is carried out by transcallosal or transcortical transventricular approach. Currently, the endoscopic treatment of these lesions is increasingly used. We reported our preliminary experience about three cases of colloid cysts treated by neuroendoscopy. Methods and Patients: We condu...
