The choroid plexus is a crucial part of the brain that plays a key role in producing cerebrospinal fluid. This fluid helps nourish and protect the brain and spinal cord. There are several different names for this essential structure, including the vascular plexus, choroidal plexus, and tela choroidea. Other synonyms for the choroid plexus include the plexus choroideus, cerebrospinal fluid-secreting tissue, and the epithelium of the choroid plexus. Regardless of the term used, the choroid plexus remains an important part of the brain that helps support overall neurological function and health.
