The inferior cerebellar peduncle is the smallest of the three cerebellar peduncles. The upper part of the posterior district of the medulla oblongata is occupied by the inferior cerebellar peduncle, a thick rope-like strand situated between the lower part of the fourth ventricle and the roots of the glossopharyngeal and vagus nerves.
Inferior cerebellar peduncle is a thick rope-like strand that occupies the upper part of the posterior district of the medulla oblongata. The peduncles form the lateral border of the fourth ventricle , and form a distinctive diamond – the middle peduncle forming the central corners of the diamond, while the superior and inferior peduncles ...
The juxtarestiform body is the smaller, medial subdivision of each inferior cerebellar peduncle (the other, lateral one being the restiform body). [1]: 290 The juxtarestiform body contains mostly cerebellar afferents, but also some cerebellar efferents. [1]: 290
Only the nucleus ruber and the dentate nucleus are shown in this diagram; the olivary nucleus is positioned on the lateral aspect of the brainstem. Palatal myoclonus The myoclonic triangle (also known by its eponym Triangle of Guillain-Mollaret or dentato-rubro-olivary pathway ) is an important feedback circuit of the brainstem and deep ...
In medicine, a mass such as a cyst or polyp is said to be pedunculated if it is supported by a peduncle. [2] There are in total three types of peduncles in the cerebellum of the human brain, known as superior cerebellar peduncle, middle cerebellar peduncle, and inferior cerebellar peduncle. [3]
The olivocerebellar tract, also known as olivocerebellar fibers, are neural fibers which originate at the olivary nucleus and pass out through the hilum and decussate with those from the opposite olive in the raphe nucleus, then as internal arcuate fibers they pass partly through and partly around the opposite olive and enter the inferior peduncle to be distributed to the cerebellar hemisphere ...
The cerebellum follows the general groups-of-three pattern found in anatomy, [17] with three major input and output cerebellar peduncles (fiber bundles). These are the superior (brachium conjunctivum), middle (brachium pontis), and inferior (restiform and juxtarestiform bodies) cerebellar peduncles.
The vestibulocerebellar tract fibers are second-order fibers from the vestibular nuclei, and first-order fibers from the vestibular ganglion/nerve. [1] They pass through the juxtarestiform body of the inferior cerebellar peduncle to reach the cerebellum, [1] They terminate in the vestibulocerebellum, and part of the vermis as well as the dentate nucleus, and fastigial nucleus in each ...
