The microsurgical anatomy of the choroidal fissure was examined in 25 cadaveric heads. The choroidal fissure, the site of attachment of the choroid plexus in the lateral ventricle, is located between the fornix and thalamus in the medial part of the lateral ventricle. The choroidal fissure is divided into three parts: (a) a body portion situated in the body of the lateral ventricle between the body of the fornix and the thalamus, (b) an atrial part located in the atrium of the lateral ventricle between the crus of the fornix and the pulvinar, and (c) a temporal part situated in the temporal horn between the fimbria of the fornix and the lower surface of the thalamus. The three parts of the fissure are the thinnest sites in the wall of the lateral ventricle bordering the basal cisterns and the roof of the third ventricle. Opening through the body portion of the choroidal fissure from the lateral ventricle exposes the velum interpositum and third ventricle. Opening through the temporal portion of the choroidal fissure from the temporal horn exposes the structures in the ambient and crural cisterns. Opening through the atrial portion of the fissure from the atrium exposes the quadrigeminal cistern, the pineal region, and the posterior portion of the ambient cistern. The neural, arterial, and venous relationships of each part of the fissure are reviewed. The operative approaches directed through each part of the fissure are also reviewed.
