Anatomical terms of neuroanatomy

The quadrigeminal cistern[1] (also cistern of great cerebral vein,[1] vein of Galen cistern,[2] superior cistern,[2][3] Bichat's canal,[3] or peripineal cistern[2]) is a subarachnoid cistern situated between splenium of corpus callosum, and the superior surface of the cerebellum.[2][4] It contains a part of the great cerebral vein, the posterior cerebral artery, quadrigeminal artery, glossopharyngeal nerve (CN IX), and the pineal gland.

Structure

The quadrigeminal cistern lies between the splenium of the corpus callosum (superiorly), the cerebellar vermis (inferiorly and posteriorly),[5][6] and the tentorial margin.[6] It is just superior to the tectum of the mesencephalon (midbrain).[3] It lies medial to part of the medial occipital cortex.[6] It is posterior to the brainstem and third ventricle;[2] it extends between the layers of the tela choroidea of the third ventricle.[5]

The cistern may extend anterior-ward between the thalamus and corpus callosum to form the cistern of velum interpositum.[3]

Contents

The superior cistern contains a number of important structures, including:

Clinical significance

Arteriovenous malformations of the great cerebral vein can create an enlarged pouch of vein in the superior cistern. This is derived from the prosencephalic vein present during prenatal development. This can be diagnosed soon after birth. Medical ultrasound may be used, where it displaces the third ventricle. Angiography may also be used.[8]

The superior cistern may be opened during neurosurgery. This is used in order to access deeper brain structures, such as the superior colliculus.[9]

History

The superior cistern may also be known as the cistern of great cerebral vein, the quadrigeminal cistern, and Bichat's canal.[5]
