Some are psychological, i.e. the fear response causes them to faint, or physical, such as the fainting that occurs when we over exert ourselves. Vagal nerve fainting (also known as vasovagal syncope) is quite simply any loss of consciousness caused by the vagus nerve. The vagus nerve runs directly from the brain stem, in front of the ears and down the neck towards the chest and abdomen. It branches off in several places to provide communication with the brain to a number of organs, such as the heart and the stomach.
The floor of the third ventricle is formed by a number of structures including the hypothalamus, subthalamus, mammilary bodies, infundibulum (pituitary stalk), and the tectum of the midbrain. The lateral walls of the third ventricle are formed by the walls of the left and right thalamus.
The Ventricles CSF is produced mainly by a structure called the choroid plexus in the lateral, third and fourth ventricles.CSF flows from the lateral ventricle to the third ventricle through the interventricular foramen (also called the foramen of Monro).he third ventricle and fourth ventricle are connected to each other by the cerebral aqueduct (also called the Aqueduct of Sylvius). CSF then flows into the subarachnoid space through the foramina of Luschka (there are two of these) and the foramen of Magendie (only one of these).
