title: [Further findings on the diencephalic artery branches].
abstract: Following earlier examinations, we determined the number, extracerebral length and pattern of branching of the diencephalic branches in 50 human brains. These small arteries have their origin in the anterior cerebral artery, the anterior communicating artery, the posterior communicating artery, the anterior choroidal artery, the posterior cerebral artery, the basilar artery and the superior cerebellar artery. With regard to the number and width of these vessels, we found some minor differences compared with specimens examined earlier. The extracerebral length and branching inside the skull have not so far been examined by us.
