The lateral ventricle is a single, curved chamber within the brain that contains cerebrospinal fluid and is responsible for its production and circulation. It is an essential component of the ventricular system, playing a crucial role in maintaining brain health and providing support and protection to the surrounding neural structures. The lateral ventricle is located bilaterally in the cerebral hemispheres and contributes to various brain functions, including the regulation of fluid balance and the exchange of nutrients and waste products.
