Morphological features of vascular bodies of some representatives of the Suidae

Fragments of vascular plexuses obtained from adult domestic pigs (n=5) and Central European wild boar (n=5) were subjected to histological examination. It was found that in domestic pigs and Central European wild boar, the unpaired vascular bodies of the third and fourth ventricles, as well as paired bodies of its lateral ventricles, lie in the brain cavities. When studying their tissues, it was found that, regardless of their topography, they have an almost identical structure. They are based on connective tissue with elements of the vascular bed and nerve endings. The outer lining of the choroid plexuses is a single-layer epithelium formed by cubic and prismatic cells that secrete cerebrospinal fluid. The height of the latter depends on their secretory activity.
