| The term paravermal zone of cerebellum refers to a subdivision of the cerebellum based on connectivity. It includes the globose nucleus, the emboliform nucleus and medial portions of the anterior lobe of cerebellum and posterior lobe of cerebellum with which they exchange projections. Some authors use the term and its synonyms to refer only to the cortical component of the circuit. See Anthoney-94 for a discussion of differences in the use of this term. |
