dorsal propriospinal tract

The term dorsal propriospinal tract refers to a collection of nerve fibers, ascending, descending, crossed and uncrossed, that interconnect various levels of the spinal cord. It is a component of the posterior white column. Myelinated fibers are located adjacent to the spinal central gray. Shorter fibers are closer to, longer fibers further from the gray. Some fibers are unmyelinated and scattered through the posterior column ( Schoenen-2004 ). The tract is one of three propriospinal tracts in which most pathways intrinsic to the spinal cord are located. The others are the ventral propriospinal tract and the lateral propriospinal tract ( Carpenter-1983 ).

Also known as: Fasciculi proprii posteriores, posterior fasciculus proprius, Fasciculus proprius posterior medullae spinalis, posterior intersegmental fasciculus of spinal cord, dorsal intersegmental fasciculus of spinal cord, dorsal fasciculus proprius of spinal cord, posterior intersegmental tract of spinal cord, dorsal intersegmental tract of spinal cord, Fasciculi proprii dorsales, posterior ground bundle, cornucommissural tract, dorsal propriospinal tract
