Key facts about the cerebellum and brainstemTable quiz Cerebellum Definition: A part of the central nervous system found posteriorly to the brainstem that is in charge for motor learning, coordination and precision of motor functions. Parts: two hemispheres (left and right), three lobes (anterior,...
The cerebellum is located at the bottom and back of the brain, below the occipital lobe and behind the brainstem. The cerebellum is made up of two major parts: There are two cerebellar nuclei which are located in the innermost parts of the cerebellum; they are the main output structures Eac...

Rhoton divided the cerebellum into three faces: the tentorial surface, suboccipital surface and petrosal surface. A complete understanding of the tridimensional view of the microsurgical anatomy of the brainstem can greatly aid the surgeon in selecting the most appropriate surgical corridor....
