Name Location Notes medial vestibular nucleus (dorsal or chief vestibular nucleus) : medulla (floor of fourth ventricle) : corresponding to the lower part of the area acustica in the rhomboid fossa; [citation needed] the caudal end of this nucleus is sometimes termed the descending or spinal vestibular nucleus.
Pontine nuclei; Pontine cranial nerve nuclei. Chief or pontine nucleus of the trigeminal nerve sensory nucleus (V) Motor nucleus for the trigeminal nerve (V) Abducens nucleus (VI) Facial nerve nucleus (VII) Vestibulocochlear nuclei (vestibular nuclei and cochlear nuclei) (VIII) Superior salivatory nucleus; Pontine tegmentum
The medial vestibular nucleus (Schwalbe nucleus) is one of the vestibular nuclei. It is located in the medulla oblongata . Lateral vestibulo-spinal tract (lateral vestibular nucleus “Deiters”)- via ventrolateral medulla and spinal cord to ventral funiculus (lumbo-sacral segments). ..
Other axons from Deiters’s nucleus are supposed to cross and ascend in the opposite medial lemniscus to the ventro-lateral nuclei of the thalamus; still other fibers pass into the cerebellum with the inferior peduncle and are distributed to the cortex of the vermis and the roof nuclei of the cerebellum; according to Cajal they merely pass ...
The superior vestibular nucleus (Bechterew's nucleus) is the dorso-lateral part of the vestibular nucleus and receives collaterals and terminals from the ascending branches of the vestibular nerve. Sends uncrossed fibers to cranial nerve 3 and 4 via the medial longitudinal fasciculus (MLF)
This movement stimulates the vestibular nerve as well as the vestibular nucleus. These impulses are transmitted down both the lateral and medial vestibulospinal tracts to the spinal cord . The spinal cord induces extensor effects in the muscle on the side of the neck to which the head is bent, and flexor effects in the muscle in the side of the ...

The lateral vestibulospinal tract is one of the descending spinal tracts of the ventromedial funiculus.. The lateral part of the vestibulospinal tract is the major portion and is composed of fibers originating in the lateral, superior, and inferior vestibular nuclei (primarily the lateral).
