internal capsule

These are the features of a right sided stroke possibly within the internal capsule.

The two are sometimes considered parts of the same structure, separated by the white matter of the internal capsule.

From there, the axons cross the internal capsule as the comb system.

The lenticulostriate arteries supply a substantial amount of the internal capsule.

It is a large, cone-shaped mass of gray matter just lateral to the internal capsule.

In the midbrain, the internal capsule becomes the cerebral peduncles.

The anterior limb of internal capsule (or frontal part) contains:

Possible sites of lesions include the thalamus, internal capsule, and basal ganglia.

The internal capsule contains both ascending and descending axons.

For instance, involvement of the internal capsule would lead to weakness in one or two limbs on one side of the body.

It can occur from damage to the thalamocortical fibers in the posterior limb of the internal capsule.

The internal capsule is V-shaped when cut transversely (horizontally).

It is also dorsal to the substantia nigra and medial to the internal capsule.

The external capsule eventually joins the internal capsule around the lenticular nucleus.

They occur less commonly in the deep cerebral white matter, the anterior limb of the internal capsule, and the cerebellum.

The primary motor cortex sends its axons through the posterior limb of the internal capsule.

However decorticate rigidity can be caused by bleeding in the internal capsule which causes damage to upper motor neurons.

"What was advertised as large communication satellites were disguised sections of the lunar transfer vehicle, each containing a man in an internal capsule.

During development the subthalamus is continuous with the hypothalamus, but is separated by white matter fibres mainly from the internal capsule.

Thalamocortical fibers have a bush or tree-like appearance as they extend into the internal capsule and project to the layers of the cortex.

The projection fibers that make up the corona radiata also radiate out of the brain stem via the internal capsule.

The pars reticulata and the internal globus pallidus are separated by the internal capsule.

Decorticate posturing indicates that there may be damage to areas including the cerebral hemispheres, the internal capsule, and the thalamus.

Lesions of the genu of the internal capsule affect fibers of the corticobulbar tract.

Findings also suggest that motor deficit severity is likely to increase as a lesion occupies progressively more posterior regions of the internal capsule.
