As we have learnt:

Lateral ventricles or Paracoel: 

  • The two lateral ventricles are located in the brain parenchyma, one in each cerebral hemisphere. 

  • The lateral ventricles are roughly C shaped.

  • They consist of a body with an anterior, a posterior (occipital) and an inferior (temporal) horn.
