Fig. 704. Cerebellum
Sagittal section of the cerebellum, near the junction of the vermis with the hemisphere. (Schäfer.)
- constitutes the largest part of the hindbrain.
- lies behind the pons and medulla oblongata
- between its central portion and these structures is the cavity of the fourth ventricle.
- rests on the inferior occipital fossæ, while above it is the tentorium cerebella
- a fold of dura mater separates it from the tentorial surface of the cerebrum.
- somewhat oval in form, but constricted medially and flattened from above downward, its greatest diameter being from side.
- surface is not convoluted like that of the cerebrum
- traversed by numerous curved furrows or sulci, which vary in depth at different parts, and separate the laminæ of which it is composed.
- average weight in the male is about 150 gms.
Proportion between the cerebellum and cerebrum
- infant about 1 to 20.
- adult about 1 to 8.
