CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM – is composed from spinal cord and brain SPINAL CORD cranial border: foramen magnum, pyramidal decussation, exit of first pair of spinal nerves caudal border: level of L1 – L2 vertebrae medullary cone – filum terminale (S2) – cauda equina enlargements: cervical enlargement (C5 – Th1): origin of nerves for upper extremity – brachial plexus lumbosacral enlargement (L1 – S2): origin of nerves for lower extremity – lumbosacral plexus external features: anterior median fissure anterolateral sulcus – anterior roots of spinal nn. posterolateral sulcus – posterior roots of spinal nn. posterior median sulcus posterior intermediate sulcus internal features: White matter anterior funiculus (between anterior median fissure and anterolateral sulcus) lateral funiculus (between anterolateral and posterolateral sulci) posterior funiculus (between posterolateral sulcus and posterior median sulcus) fasciculus gracilis fasciculus cuneatus Gray matter anterior (ventral) horn – motor function: Rexed laminae I – VI lateral horn – serves to visceral function: Rexed lamina VII dorsal (posterior) horn – sensory information: Rexed laminae VIII – IX central grey matter – interneurons: around central canal Rexed lamina X Central canal cranially opens into IV. ventricle caudally expands into terminal ventricle vessels of spinal cord: Arteries: spinal brr. from surrounding arteries – anterior radicular aa., posterior radicular aa.: posterior spinal aa.
