Neurohypophyseal recess [Infundibular recess]
Recessus neurohypophysialis [Recessus infundibuli]
Definition
The neurohypophyseal recess (or infundibular recess) is an invagination of the third ventricle of the diencephalon, located within the infundibulum of the neurohypophysis, contributing to the ventricular continuity with the hypothalamo-hypophyseal axis.
