peer agreement (net): +1junction of the cerebellum, medulla oblongata, ans spinal cord Explanation: I think this refers to the junction between the structures at the level of the foramen magnum, in the posterior cranial fossa, the point at which the medulla oblongata transitions into the spinal cord and passes into the vertebral canal. bulbo refers to the bulbe rachidien (medulla oblongata) médullaire refers to the spinal cord. The significance of these structures being in place is that increased intracranial pressure resulting from eg a brain haemorrhage can drive these structures downwards out of the fossa through the foramen, which can be fatal.

Medulla oblongata is the terminal part of the brainstem. It sits in the posterior cranial fossa, below the tentorium cerebelli.

Le tronc cérébral et le cerveletLe tronc cérébral représente la continuité entre le diencéphale et la moelle cervicale. Sa limite supérieure est déterminée par son passage dans l'incisure tentorielle où le mésencéphale se prolonge vers le haut par le diencéphale sans limite anatomique véritable ; le repère habituel étant latéralement représenté par les tractus optiques. Sa limite inférieure est constituée par la jonction bulbo-médullaire. Il est formé de 3 éléments superposés : la moelle allongée (bulbe), le pont, et le mésencéphale : la moelle allongée est un cône tronqué de 3 cm reposant sur le tiers inférieur du clivus. Son "collet" répond à l'interligne occipito-atloïdien. le pont est une saillie transversale de 2,5 cm à convexité ventrale reposant sur le tiers moyen et le tiers supérieur du clivus. De cette saillie semblent sortir les pédoncules cérébraux. le mésencéphale est formé de deux cordons aplatis et divergents (les pédoncules cérébraux) qui s'engagent sous les tractus optiques, qui supportent en arrière la lame tectale, et qui traversent l'incisure tentorielle en "se couchant" sur la selle turcique. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 19 heures (2023-04-30 10:24:36 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Citernes sous-arachnoïdiennes Wikipedia https://fr.wikipedia.org › wiki › Cite... · Translate this page citerne cérébello-médullaire cerebromedullary from fr.wikipedia.org La grande citerne (cisterna magna), appelée aussi la citerne cérébello-médullaire (cisterna cerebellomedullaris) ou encore lac cérébelleux inférieur, est -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 19 heures (2023-04-30 10:30:27 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- https://www.le.ac.uk/pa/teach/va/anatomy/case3/frmst3a.html -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 19 heures (2023-04-30 10:30:48 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- The cerebral hemispheres form the largest part of the brain, occupying the anterior and middle cranial fossae in the skull and extending backwards over the tentorium cerebelli. They are made up of the cerebral cortex, the basal ganglia, tracts of synaptic connections, and the ventricles containing CSF. The Diencephalon (not shown above) includes the thalamus, hyopthalamus, epithalamus and subthalamus, and forms the central core of the brain. It is surrounded by the cerebral hemispheres. The Midbrain (not shown) is located at the junction of the middle and posterior cranial fossae. The Pons sits in the anterior part of the posterior cranial fossa- the fibres within the structure connect one cerebral hemisphere with its opposite cerebellar hemisphere. The Medulla Oblongata is continuous with the spinal cord, and is responsible for automatic control of the respiratory and cardiovascular systems. The Cerebellum overlies the pons and medulla, extending beneath the tentorium cerebelli and occupying most of the posterior cranial fossa. It is mainly concerned with motor functions that regulate muscle tone, coordination, and posture. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 jour 2 heures (2023-04-30 17:31:08 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- p.s. wiki reference is wrong, see https://radiopaedia.org › articles › cisterna-magna (cisterna cerebellomedullaris) from radiopaedia.org 26 Jul 2022 — The cisterna magna (also known as the posterior cerebellomedullary cistern) is the largest of the CSF-filled subarachnoid cisterns. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 jour 2 heures (2023-04-30 17:32:10 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- The Pons - Function - Location - TeachMeAnatomy TeachMeAnatomy https://teachmeanatomy.info › ... › The Brainstem cerebellomedullary pontine junction from teachmeanatomy.info *****The angle formed at the junction of the pons, medulla, and cerebellum is another anatomical landmark and is named cerebellopontine angle****.
