The apex of the large triangular mass approaches themid-line and its superior and inferior basal angles are prolonged upward and downward alongthe vestibular tract. When examined microscopically the large mass is found to include three subdivisions : (a)a tapering caudally directed nucleus which continues the inferior angle along the descendingvestib

The alveoli or acini containthe secreting cells, and are limited externally by a basement membrane, often welldeveloped, which supports the glandular epithelium and separates the latter from theblood- and lymph-vessels that surround the acinus.

The lesion is muchmore likely to involve two adjacent areas, as of the face and arm, or of the armand leg, giving rise to a combined paralysis ; but no single lesion, unless it werecrescentic in form, could involve at the same time the leg and face areas withoutincluding the intervening arm area.

Thespinal nucleus is closely associatedwith a conspicuous longitudinaltract of caudally directed fibres,the fasciculus solitarius(tractus solitarius), so called on account of the apparent isolation of the bundle whenviewed in transverse sections (Fig. 927). That such, however, is not the case isevident when the fact is recalled that the fibres which turn downward to form the tractare accompanied by the spinal nucleus of reception, around whose cells they end.
