  • Title: Arterial supply of the pineal gland of Akkaraman sheep.
    Author: Yildiz D, Gultiken ME, Bolat D.
    Journal: Acta Vet Hung; 2004; 52(1):1-6. PubMed ID: 15119782.
    Abstract:
    Arterial vascularisation of the ovine pineal gland was investigated by latex injection preparations of the common carotid artery in 20 adult Akkaraman sheep brains under stereo light microscope. It was observed that the arterial supply comes exclusively from branches of the caudal cerebral artery. The pineal gland was found to contain a rich vascular network. This network also received a few branches from the caudal choroid rami.
