| Exploration of the cerebellum and brain stem from above and to the right |
| Cerebellar peduncles, rhomboid fossa, peduncle of flocculus and flocculotegmental fibers |
| The right cerebellar hemisphere has been cut away so that the relations of its three peduncles are visible. The rhomboid fossa, which forms the floor of the fourth ventricle, has been widely exposed. The ependymal lining of the floor of the ventricle has been cut away except for a small island over the facial colliculus (6). The pigmentation of the locus caeruleus (17) is visible as it extends toward the mesencephalon. The peduncle of the flocculus (11) projects upward from behind the brachium pontis and is broken off. Fibers diverging from the peduncle form a bundle (10) which ascends towards the mesencephalon below the lateral part of the floor of the fourth ventricle. |
