Talk:Ventricular system

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Removed a few factual inaccuracies, such as "Currently, it is thought that most of the CSF leaves the ventricular system via a path along the olfactory tracts and leaves the cranium through the cribriform plate." Note: the olfactory tracts are part of the olfactory system. They do not communicate with the ventricular system and have absolutely no role in CSF-passage. CSF is reabsorbed into the venous system (superior sagittal sinus) via arachonoid granulations - this fact is supported by hundreds of references. The removed sentence resembles rather a description of the olfactory pathway, with the olfactory nerve fibers entering the skull through the cribriform plate of the ethmoid bone.

Added a few more anatomic details, a reference, and links to two localized versions of Wikipedia. DrFlo1 | Talk 19:36 (EDT), May 26, 2005

This is a mess all right. I started trying to clean it up, but now I'm thinking I should just rewrite it from scratch. dsws 05:06, 14 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Cleanup

The "more information" section at the bottom is very poor style. I don't want to risk screwing something up as I know nothing about neuro. --aciel 19:35, 14 October 2005 (UTC)

User:Wee Jimmy cleaned this article up pretty substantially in December [1]. I've made some factual corrections just now and have removed the cleanup tag. --David Iberri (talk) 19:14, 6 January 2006 (UTC)
