Unusual neural connection between injured cingulum and brainstem in a patient with subarachnoid hemorrhage

The human brain is known to have six cholinergic nudei (Selden et al., 1998; Nieuwenhuys et al., 2008). The cerebral cortex obtains cholinergic innervation mainly from the basalis nucleus of Meynert (Ch 4) in the bas- al forebrain through the medial and lateral cholinergic pathways (Selden et al., 1...

Description
Summary:The human brain is known to have six cholinergic nudei (Selden et al., 1998; Nieuwenhuys et al., 2008). The cerebral cortex obtains cholinergic innervation mainly from the basalis nucleus of Meynert (Ch 4) in the bas- al forebrain through the medial and lateral cholinergic pathways (Selden et al., 1998; Mesulam et al., 1983). The cingulum, the neural fiber bundle connecting the basal forebrain and the medial temporal lobe, contains the medial cholinergic pathway (Selden et al., 1998; Hong and Jang, 2010).
