Notes
TA98 footnote Fibrae corticonucleares bulbi The term corticobulbar, as commonly used in the past, refers to axons originating in the cerebral cortex and innervating motor nuclei of cranial nerves of the medulla oblongata, pons, and by extension, the midbrain. Since bulbus specifically refers to the medulla oblongata, application of the term corticobulbar to these fibres in the midbrain is incorrect. The term corticonuclearis followed by bulbi, pontinis (see A14.1.05.105), or mesencephali (see A14.1.06.202) replaces corticobulbar and specifies cortical axons that innervate motor and/or sensory nuclei of cranial nerves.
