The ventral nucleus, situatedventrally and laterally near the entrance of the nerve, contains some of thesecond neuron cells. These fibers pass horizontally and medially through thepons between the pyramidal and lemniscus tracts, and cross to the otherside. This tract is called the corpus trapezoideum (Figs. 88, 89, 95).Large numbers of nerve-cells are here deposited. Directly above them dor-sally and immediately below the nucleus of the facial nerve is a small col-lection of ganglia, the upper olive, into which large numbers of these fiberspenetrate. Many fibers of the corpus trapezoideum appear to split up around theirown cells as well as around the cell
