These fibers traverse the rost ralhalf of the posterior limb of the internal capsule, the intermediate three-fifthsof the basis pedunculi, the basilar portion of the pons, and the pyramid of themedulla oblongata, and after undergoing a partial decussation are continued intothe spinal cord (Figs. 237, 238).
