BASAL GANGLIA
- Situation
  - lateral to thalamus
- Parts
  - divided by a band of nerve fibers internal capsule in to
    - Caudate nucleus (neostriatum / striatum)
    - Lentiform nucleus
      - dark lateral part
        
        putamen ( neostriatum / striatum)
      - medial paler part
        
        globus pallidus ( also called paleostriatum / pallidum )
    - Anteroinferior ends of these nuclei
      - remain connected by a few bands of grey matter
        
        across anterior limb of internal capsule
      - these bands give it a striated appearance
        
        corpus striatum
- Detailed Parts
  - Caudate nucleus
    - shape
      - comma shaped mass of grey matter
        
        Round anterior part in front of interventricular foramen is called
        
        head
        
        large and rounded
        
        forms floor and lateral wall of anterior horn of lateral ventricle
        
        bands of grey matter connect it to putamen
        
        across anterior limb of internal capsule
        
        middle part
        
        head tapers in to body

        separated from thalamus by
        
        stria terminalis and thalamostriate vein
        
        posterior
        
        tail
        
        merges at its anterior extremity with almond shaped mas of grey matter
        
        amygdaloid body

    - shape
      - lens shaped ( biconvex) mass of grey matter
    - situation
      - beneath insula
      - forming lateral boundary of internal capsule
    - 3 surfaces
      - lateral surface
        
        convex
        
        related to thin sheet of white matter
        
        external capsule
        
        grooved by
        
        lateral striate arteries ( central branches of middle cerebral artery)
      - medial surface
        
        more convex
        
        related to internal capsule ( limbs and genu )
      - inferior surface
        
        related to sub lentiform part of internal capsule
        
        lies close to anterior perforated substance
    - parts
      - a vertical plate of white matter ( external medullary lamina ) divides it in to
        
        putamen
        
        globus pallidus
        
        smaller medial part
        
        lighter in colour
        
        consists large motor cells
        
        also called pallidum
        
        further subdivided by internal medullary lamina in to
        
        outer part or externa
        
        inner part or interna
    - Connections of corpus striatum
      - Afferent connections
        
        Corticostriate fibers
        
        Thalamostriate fibers
        
        Nigrostriate Fibers
      - Efferent connections
        
        Globus pallidus is the main efferent component
