Sickle (Falx, Multiply/Alces), Sickle of the Big Brain (Falx Cerebrf)

The Great Brain falx is a crescent-shaped fold of the dura mater. It is located in the skull along the midline between the cerebral hemispheres and is directed downward with its sharp end.

The Great Brain falx extends from the roof of the skull and extends to the corpus callosum. It separates the cerebral hemispheres, preventing them from moving relative to each other. In addition, the Greater Brain Sickle strengthens the midline structures of the brain and partially supports the brain in the cranial cavity.

Thus, the Greater Brain Sickle performs important supporting and separating functions, providing reliable protection and fixation of brain structures inside the cranium.



The skull is the bony skeleton of the human head, formed from the connection between the bones of the brain and facial skull. Upon external examination of the surface of the skull, you can notice clearly visible pits, grooves and ridges, which is due to the structural features of the bones that make up its skeleton.

The falx cerebri is a depression (vault) located in the space between the frontal and parietal bones of the head in its middle part; a crescent-shaped vertical bony plate lining this part of the skull and firmly connected to it. The clinical significance of the presence of a sickle (its relative reduction) is a significant predisposition to the occurrence of hydrocephalus and some other intracranial changes.

The formation of the falx cerebri begins at the embryonic stage. Communication



Sickle Greater Brain - This crescent-shaped wider for the dura mater is a continuation to the midline dividing the cerebral hemisphere. The serp is attached to the wall of the third ventricle sac between the cerebrum and the spinal cord. This structure helps to trigger the white matter with rough movements. It is located in the middle parts of the posterior part of the sphenoid bone. Also, the triangle region is located within the large brain segment of the posterior dural wall. It lies near other paired sickles and a bridge. The upper halves of adjacent sickles are large, but the lower halves are curved and slightly curled. The falx cerebri is adjacent to the plethoric gland located behind, this is the location in relation to the iron bridge. The elastic disc is supported by the lumbar body, however. At the end towards the left side there is a wedge-shaped ridge. This point is located close to the opening of the large ventricle, after which
