Anatomical terms of neuroanatomy [edit on Wikidata] |
The vagal trigone (ala cinerea) is a triangular eminence upon the rhomboid fossa produced by the underlying dorsal nucleus of vagus nerve.[1]
The vagal trigone is separated from the area postrema by a narrow strip of thickened ependyma – the funiculus separans.[2]
