Point where the central canal opens into the 4th ventricle | obexWhat |
What makes CSF? Where is it located? | Choroid plexus In the 4th ventricle |
What is the CBT a part of? What does it supply? | CST CN nuclei |
What is on each side of the ventral median fissure | pyramids |
Where does the cortical tract run? | in the pyramids |
What separates the pyramids from the olives | Ventrolateral sulcus |
Where is CN XII (hypoglossal) located? | Ventrolateral sulcus |
What nerves emerge through the dorsolateral sulcus? | CN IX CN X CN XI |
What is located between the ventral and dorsal lateral sulcus? What does it hold? | Olive olivary nuclei |
Where is the clava? What could you think of it as? | fasciculus gracilius Gracilie tubercle |
Where do synapses occur in the DC system? | Cuneate tubercle |
What is the dorsal motor nucleus of the Vagus CN X called? | Vagal Trigone |
Hypoglossal nucleus name? | Hypoglossal Trigone |
What are 3 foramina in the Dorsal view of BS? What escapes from these? | 2-Foramina of Luschka (lateral) 1-Foramen of Magendie (midline) CSF |
Connecting & crossing nn fibers of the R & L cerebral hemispheres. Use it to get to & from the medial cerebellar peduncle> | The Bridge |
Where is the Basal Artery located? | Basal Sulcus |
What 3 nns emerege from the groove b/w the pons and medulla? | CN VI abducens CN VII facial CN VIII vestibulocochlear |
Brachium Pontis | Middle cerebellar peduncles (arm of the pons) |
What is a big place for acoustic neuromas? Why here? | Cerebellopontine angle BC the vestibular and cochlear nns lie here. |
What emerges btwn the vestibularcochlear & abducens nn? | CN VII Facial |
Where does the vestibulocochlear nn exit? | junction btwn the medulla and pons |
Where is the Trigeminal CN V located? | Anterolateral surface of the pons |
What is located on the floor of the 4th ventricle in the pontine part? | Facial colliculus |
Colliculus (tubercle) means: little hill What creates this hill? | Part of the Facial nn wraps around the abducens nucleus and that make the bump |
What makes the wall of the 4th ventricle? | superior cerebellar peduncles |
brachia conjunctiva What is it? | Superior cerebellar peduncle |
Brachium pontis | middle cerebellar peduncles |
What is the Roof of the pons made of? | Cerebellar vermis Anterior medullary vellum |
the midbrain contain two lateral halves called what? What is the anterior? Posterior? | Cerebral peduncles Crus cerebri Tegmentum |

Inferior Colliculi is a center for what? | Lower auditory Centers |
The visual and auditory center act as way stations for what? | Different sensory pathways |
What is the only nn that comes from post and wraps to the anterior? | Trochlear CN IV |
The floor for the 4th ventricles, caudal part is formed by what? | Dorsal surface of the medulla |
The floor of the 4th ventricle , rostral part if formed by the what? | dorsal pons |
Surface Lanmarks for the medulla for the 4th ventricle is? | Posterior median fissure Hypoglossal Trigone Vagal Trigone |

What are the 4 levels internal structures at the medulla? | Decussation of pyramids Decussation of lemnisci Olives Just inferior to the pons |
Internal structures of the spinal cord to the BS? | Corticospinal tracts- Dorsal Column Spinothalmic tracts |
Corticospinal tract : where does it cross | Pyramidal crossing in the caudal medulla Ipsalateral |
Dorsal Column: | Internal arcuate fibers: ssny decussation or of the fasciculus gracillis & cuneatus to the medial lemniscus Contralateral |
Spinothalmic Tract Anterior Lateral | stay on same side and do not cross Anterior: touch and pressure Lateral: pain and temperature |
