commisural, association, projection
|
|
What is the largest collection of commisural fibers
|
corpus callosum

|
3 parts of the dorsal lateral thalmic nuclei
|
lateral dorsal, lateral posterior, pulvinar
|
|
4 parts of the ventral lateral thalmic nuclei
|
ventral anterior, ventral lateral, ventral posterior (VPM/VPL), metathalamus
|
|
VPM - for head or for body
|
for head
|
|
VPL - for head or for body
|
for body
|
|
2 parts of the metathalamus and their functions/connections
|
Lateral geniculate body from optic radiation (vision); Medial geniculate body from inferior colliculus (hearing)
|
|
Name the cx from the lateral geniculate body to the visual cortex
|
Posterior thalamic radiation
|
|
Name the cx from the medial geniculate body to the auditory cortex
|
inferior thalamic radiation
|
|
5 general thalamic functions
|
1. sensory relay; 2. motor integration; 3. arousal (RAS); 4. pain modulation; 5. Memory/behavior
|
|
thalamic memory/behav. anatomic connections
|
prefrontal cortex, limbic system
|
|
primary blood supply to thalamus
|
thalamogeniculate artery branch of the posterior cerebral artery
|
|
Major side effect of thalamic syndrome
|
increased threshold to all stimuli on OPPOSITE side of body, so you get exaggerated responses; can cause motor paralysis of one side and changes in personality, memory

|
Facial nerve paralysis
|
nuc. of facial nerve is divided into upper and lower half; upper half supplies upper muscles, like the frontalis/orbic. oculi; lower facial = lower face - DAO/bucc.
|
|
facial nucleus
|
corticobulbar: upper facial - same AND opposite side; lower facial - ONLY opposite side
|
|
if pt has stroke in LEFT cerebral hemisphere, which part of the nucleus is missing ipsilateral control?
|
lower facial nucleus since it's only controlled by the opposite side. So, pt loses motor control over lower facial muscles (can still wrinkle forehead, cloe eyes hard)
|
|
If pt has only lower face injury, this means
|
UMN lesion of opposite side
|
|
pt with facial paralysis and medial strabismus
|
abducent nerve nucleus AND facial nerve paralysis, so lesoin must be in brainstem in facial colliculus
|
|
facial colliculus is made up of...
|
facial n. fiber and abducent nucleus; LMN injury since it's in nerve fiber, nuclues, or msucle
|
|
LMN injuries come from
|
nerve fiber, nucleus, musclces
|
|
UMN injury is where
|
pyramidal tract or cerebral cortex itself
|
