Theinternal capsule appears dividing the corpus striatum into the now small caudate, and thelenticular nuclei. The latter shows a subdivision into the globus pallidus and the the right ventral to the corpus striatum lies the substantia perforata anterior, on theleft the tuberculum olfactorium. The fibers of the anterior commissure are seen crossingthe ventral part of the globus pallidus on the left, more laterally on the right. Ventral to theseptum pellucidum appear the fiber bundles of the fornix, more prominent on the left. Posterior to the recessus triangularis, rather loosely held to, but distorting, the columnar fornicis,anterior commissure and lamina terminalis is seen the sacular termination of the cyst oc-cupying the base of the third ventricle. The foramen of Monroe is seen on the left. Theincreased size of both lateral ventricles may be noted.
