The cistern of lamina terminalis is one of the subarachnoid cisterns. It is situated (depending upon the source) either superior to the lamina terminalis, [1] or rostral/anterior to the lamina terminalis and anterior commissure between the two frontal lobes of the cerebrum. [2] It is situated rostral/anterior to the third ventricle. [3] The cistern is an extension of interpeduncular cistern. [4] The cistern of lamina terminalis interconnects the chiasmatic cistern and pericallosal cistern. [2]

The cistern contains the anterior cerebral arteries, [4] [2] [3] the anterior communicating artery, [2] [3] hypothalamic artery, the origin of the fronto-orbital arteries, and Heubner's artery. [3]
