La capsule interne est une importante voie de conduction, dans laquelle cheminent de nombreuses voies de projection. Dans une coupe horizontale, la capsule interne présente un angle ouvert latéralement (genou = genou de la capsule interne) auquel aboutissent deux bras (bras antérieur et bras postérieur). Dans ces trois parties passent de nombreuses fibres ascendantes et descendantes […] Le bras antérieur est limité par la tête du noyau caudé, le pallidum et le putamen; le bras postérieur, par le thalamus, le pallidum et le putamen.
