Open questions:

1. Medulla oblongata - external description of the ventral surface.

The medulla Oblongata is 3cm in length and 2 cm in diameter. The superior border against
pons stats superior and posteriorly at the level of the Pedunculi cerebellaris inferior thus forming the inferior half
of Ventriculus Quartus.
The inferior border of the medulla spinalis and medulla oblongata is at the roots of the first Cervical Spinal Nerve
C1.

Structures: anteriorly; the Oliva, the Pyramis


and the decussation of the Pyramis can be perceived. At the Oliva 1 can find; nuclei olivaris inferioris.

Cranial nerve roots;

1) Nervus abduces CN VI, facialis CN VII, Vestibulocochlearis CN VIII ( at pontomedullary junction).


2) More caudally and posterolateral we can find N. Glossopharyngeus CN IX, Vagus CN X, Acessorius CN XI,
Hypoglossus CN XII

Posteriorly:

Here Tuberculum Gracile and Cuneatus can be found, formed by the axons of faciculus gracilis and Cuneatus.
44

Fissure mediana anterior & posterior.

2. Medulla spinalis tracts funiculus lateralis.

At the level of medulla oblongata several ascending and descending tracts can be seen and some nuclei.

Nueclei:

Nucleus gracilis; formed by the second order neurons that receive impulses from the faciculus Gracilis from lower
limb (I-order neuron) of fine touch, vibration localization and positioning.

Nucleus Cuneatus: formed by the second order neurons that receive impulses from the faciculus Cuneatus from
upper limb (I-order neuron) of fine touch, vibration localization and positioning.

Spinal Nucleus of N. Trigemini CN V. ; The spinal trigeminal nucleus is a nucleus in the medulla that receives
information about deep/crude touch, pain, and temperature from the ipsilateral face. In addition to the
trigeminal nerve (CN V), the facial (CN VII), glossopharyngeal (CN IX), and vagus nerves (CN X) also convey pain
information from their areas to the spinal trigeminal nucleus.[1] Thus the spinal trigeminal nucleus receives input
from cranial nerves V, VII, IX, and X.

Dorsal Vagal Nucleus CN X(nucleus dorsalis nervi vagi): lies ventral to the floor of the fourth ventricle. It mostly
serves parasympathetic vagal functions in the gastrointestinal tract, lungs, and other thoracic and abdominal
vagal innervations. The cell bodies for the preganglionic parasympathetic vagal neurons that innervate the heart
reside in the nucleus ambiguus.

Nucleus Ambiguus:
A group of large motor neurons, situated deep in the medullary reticular formation named by Jacob Clarke.[

Nucleus N. Hypoglossus CN IX ;

Dorsal accessory nucleus:

Tracts:

1. Faciuculus gracilis ( forme here lemeniscus medialis and its decussation)


2. Fasciculus Cuneatus
3. Spinal tract of trigeminal nerve; CN V
4. Medial longuitudinal Faciculus ;

The medial longitudinal fasciculus fasciculus longuitudinalis medialis) carries information about the direction that
the eyes should move. It connects the cranial nerve nuclei III (N. occulomotorius CN III), IV ( nervus Trochlearis)
and VI (Nervus Abducens) together, and integrates movements directed by the gaze centers (frontal eye field) and
information about head movement (from cranial nerve VIII, Vestibulocochlear nerve). It is an integral component
of saccadic eye movements as well as vestibulo-ocular and optokinetic reflexes. It also carries the descending

4. Motor coordination pathway.

of a chain of neurons:
1st order neuron Neurons from the motor cortex in the parietal, frontal, occipital and temporal sites; the axons
of the latter descend as tractus parietopontinus, tractus temporopontinus, tractus corticopontinus (tractus
frontopontinus, tractus occipitopontinus, they pass through capsula interna (telencephalon), crus cerebri and carry
information to the pons;
2d neuron nuclei pontis; axons of them form tractus pontocerebellaris, which is crossed and run to cortex
cerebelli via pedunculi cerebellares medii;
3rd neuron neural cells of cortex cerebelli; they are connected with nucleus dentatus;
4th neuron nucleus dentatus; axons from it run as tractus cerebellorubralis via pedunculi cerebellares superiores,
are crossed in velum medullare superius and reach nucleus ruber (mesencephalon);
5th neuron nucleus ruber; axons of it are crossed (decussatio tegmentalis anterior) and descend as tractus
rubrospinalis;
6th neuron nuclei motorii of the anterior horns of the spinal cord; axons form spinal nerves.

5. Description of white matter in pons.

Pons as the whole brainstem contains many axons of several descend and ascending tracts( white matter) and
they can be subdivided between those that are part of the tegmentum and those of the basilar part such as;

White matter of the basilar part:


Tractus descendentes:
1. tractus corticospinalis; comes from cortex gyrus precentralis part of the pyramidal system hence tractus
corticospinalis lateralis et anterior;
2. tractus corticonuclearis; also part of the pyramidal system it synapses with the motor nuclei of the cranial
nerves ( Trigeminus V, AbducensVI, Facialis VII);
3. tractus corticopontinus it is part of the pathway for the voluntary coordination of the movements;
4. tractus pontocerebellaris it is part of the pathway for the voluntary coordination of the movements.
The 1st neurons of the pathway for coordination of the movements are in the frontal, parietal, occipital and
temporal regions of cortex cerebri; the axons of them form tractus corticopontinus and synapse to the 2nd
neurons of this pathway nuclei pontis. Axons of the 2nd neurons form tractus pontocerebellaris; they are
crossed and run to the opposite side of the cerebellum via pedunculi cerebellares medii.

The axons of the tegmentum of pons are composed of afferent and efferent tracts.
48

temperature and pain ( lateralis ) & touch and pressure ( anterior)
3. lemniscus trigeminalis fibres from the sensory nuclei of the Vth cranial nerve; they are crossed;
4. tractus spinocerebellaris anterior; Unconscious muscle sense joint, Unconscious proprioceptive pathway
5. lemniscus lateralis and corpus trapezoideum are parts of the auditory pathway.

anterius ( II-order) to facilitate flexor muscle and inhibit extensor activity.
3. tractus reticulospinalis; starts from medulla oblongata and pons reticular nucleus ( formation) continues in
lateral white enters cornu anterior they inhibit/facilitate - - motor neuron activity in that way
they influence voluntary movements and reflex activity.

nuclei with the extra ocular muscle nuclei of ( n. abducens CN VI, n.trochlearis CN IV & CN III
occulomotorius).

6. Circulation of liquor cerebrospinalis.


Liquour or CSF (cerebrospinal fluid) is produced in the plexus chorideous of ventriculus lateralis, tertius and
quartus. CSF flows through foramen (1) interventriculare of Monroe from ventriculus lateralis to V.tertius.
Ventriculus Tertius is the connected to Ventriculus Quartus trough (2) aqueductus cerebri ( of Sylvius)
Ventriculus Quartus communicates with spatium subarachnoideum trough (3) foramina lateralia (luscka) and
through the (4) apertura Mediana (of Magendie) rest flows trough the Canalis Centralis medullae spinalis.
From spatium subarachnoideum CSF will flow into the venous plexuses trough the granulationes arachnoidae ,
which will later flow into confluens sinuum . An other part of the CSF drains into lymphatic pathways trough
spinal nerve coverings.

7. Pyramidal motor pathways.

Tractus Cortico spinalis lateris & Tractus corticospinalis anterior.

Tractus corticospinalis (alternative name pyramidal tract)

through corona radiata capsula interna (telencephalon) and descend as two tracts tractus corticonuclearis &
tractus corticospinalis. This tract forms the swelling at medulla oblongata called pyramis and their cross over
decussation.
49

Interaction: most fibers cross at the level of medulla oblongata at ( they form the cross over =decussation
decussation) decussatio of pyramids and descend 20 % as anterior tractus corticospinalis & 80% tr.
Corticospinalis lateralis; is the one that crosses over and forms decussation pyramidum descends in funiculus
lateralis of spinal cord.

Second order neuron: descending fibers enter spinal cord at the motor nuclei at cornu anterius(nuclei motorii
) - - motor neurons, only a small part
of the tract synapses directly with the lower motor neuron. The second order neuron exits the cornu anterius to
target skeletal muscle fibers.

The metencephalon is the embryonic part of the hindbrain that differentiates into the pons and the cerebellum. It
contains a portion of the fourth ventricle and the trigeminal nerve (CN V), abducens nerve (CN VI), facial nerve
(CN VII), and a portion of the vestibulocochlear nerve (CN VIII).

Pallium: In neuroanatomy, pallium refers to the layers of grey and white matter that cover the upper surface of
the cerebrum in vertebrates. The non-pallial part of t he telencephalon builds the subpallium.
