olivary

Some of the fibers terminate in the superior olivary nucleus.

IX. Neurology. 4e. Composition and Central Connections of the Spinal Nerves 1918

Efferent fibers of tuberculum acusticum, forming the striae medullares, with 6’, their direct bundle going to the superior olivary nucleus of the same side; 6’’, their decussating bundles going to the superior olivary nucleus of the opposite side.

Efferent fibers of tuberculum acusticum, forming the striae medullares, with 6’, their direct bundle going to the superior olivary nucleus of the same side; 6’’, their decussating bundles going to the superior olivary nucleus of the opposite side.

The superior olivary nucleus is a small mass of gray matter situated on the dorsal surface of the lateral part of the trapezoid body.

IX. Neurology. 4e. Composition and Central Connections of the Spinal Nerves 1918

From the alar lamina and its rhombic lip, neuroblasts migrate into the basal lamina, and become aggregated to form the olivary nuclei, while many send their axis-cylinders through the floor-plate to the opposite side, and thus constitute the rudiment of the raphé of the medulla oblongata.

IX. Neurology. 2. Development of the Nervous System 1918

It consists of fibers from the terminal nuclei of the cochlear division of the acoustic nerve, together with others from the superior olivary and trapezoid nuclei.

IX. Neurology. 4b. The Mid-brain or Mesencephalon 1918

The spino-olivary fasciculus (olivospinal; bulbospinal, Helweg’s bundle) is likewise of unknown constitution and function; there is uncertainty even in regard to the direction of its fibers.

IX. Neurology. 4d. Composition and Central Connections of the Spinal Nerves 1918

Inferior olivary nucleus with the two accessory olivary nuclei.

Illustrations. Fig. 700 1918

This nucleus is situated above the nucleus ambiguus, behind the superior olivary nucleus, and medial to the spinal tract of the trigeminal nerve.

IX. Neurology. 5g. The Facial Nerve 1918

Inferior olivary nucleus, with the accessory olivary nuclei.
