Surgical anatomy : a treatise on human anatomy in its application to the practice of medicine and surgery . r perforated space and supply the body and tail of the caudatenucleus, the internal capsule, and the optic thalamus; a branch, the lenticulo-striate, which passes through an aperture in the anterior perforated space andsvipplies the lenticular and caudate nuclei. The lenticulo-striate artery is calledby Charcot the artery of cerebral hemorrhage, as it has so frequently been foundruptured in this condition. Finally, opposite the island of Reil, the middlecerebral artery gives off cortical branches which supply the operculum andthe temporal and parietal lobes, especially the supra-marginal and angular gyri. The Posterior Communicating Artery arises from the posterior surface of theinternal carotid, and runs directly backward, parallel to and on the inner side ofthe oculo-motor nerve, to join the posterior cerebral artery. It varies in size, beingsometimes so large as to give the impression that the posterior cerebral artery is its PLATE CCLXII, Ascending frontal a.

A great difference in the size of the vessels of the two sides isnot infrequently seen. It gives off branches to the uncinate convolution, withwhich it is in relation, and a branch, the middle thalamic, which passes verticallythrough the hippocampal sulcus to the oi)tic thalamus. The Anterior Choroid Artery is given off by the internal carotid just beyondthe posterior communicating artery. It passes backward and outward under thetip of the temporo-sphenoid lobe of the cerebrum, to enter the descending cornuof the lateral ventricle on its way to supply the hipjaocamjaus major, corpusfimbriatum, and choroid plexus. The Vertebral Artery, a branch of the first portion of the subclavian, entersthe cranial cavity by way of the foramen magnum, and run
