It receives a bundle from the arm of the corpus quadrigeminum anterius, well shown on the left side of the figure, above which one will recognize the corpus geniculatum mediale. Beneath the pulvinar the pes pedunculi emerges. In the pes are contained fibers of very varied origin. Embryological studies and especially the exact tracing of secondary degenerations, which result from cerebral lesions, alone make it possible to determine where the different tracts lie. There is already a considerable number of well observed cases of partial degeneration of the pes, so that an enumeration of the parts of the pes may with due certainty be given.

In its median fifth are fibers which pass down from the region of the operculum. In the middle three-fifths of the pes are found the fibers from the posterior portion of the frontal lobe and from the true motor region. All of these bundles arise direct from the cortical cells and degenerate when they are interrupted anywhere between the cortex and.
