Medulla Flashcards
Rostral flared part of medulla
4th ventri
Crnaial nerves associated with medulla
6-12
Blod supply of medulla
From vertebrala rtery
Medulla contains medullary reticular formation cell groups that influence
Heart rate
respiration
Maturaing neurons of the basal plate in medulla give rise to
Hypogloss SE
Dorsal motor vagal nuceli VE
Inferior salivary nucleus VE
Nucleus ambiguus SE
Cranial nerves derived from alar plate of medulla
Vestibular SA
Cochlear SA
solitary VA
spinal trigeminal SA
Aalr plate neuroblast caudla to obex gives rise to
Gracile nucleus
Cuteata nucleus
Alar palte cells caudal to obex gives rise to
Nuferior olivay nucleus
Prominent bundle of axons collect in the anterior of he medulla to form
Pyramids
Medulla is characterized externally by
Anterior median fissure
Lateral pyrimds
Olive (inf olivary eminence)
Crossing of most fibers of the pyramids, arising from the motor cortex as corticospinal fibers, is called
Motor decussation
The rootlet of gypogloss nerve exit exit the medulla via _____, a shallow grooce located between pyramid and olive
Preolivary sulcus
Abducens emerges where
Pondmedullary joint
Found between restiform body and the large eminence of the inferior olivary nucleus
Postolivary/retroolivary sulcus
The retoro/postolovaty sulcus us found between
Restiform body and eminence of ifnerior olivary nucleus
What emerge from the postolivary sulcus
Glossopha
Vagus
Emerge from the posterolateral medulla at the pons medulla interface
Vestibulo
Facial
General region of the exit of the facial and vestibulochoch is clincally regarded as the
Cerebellopontine angle
