1/The medulla is anything but DULL! Does seeing an infarct in the medulla cause your heart to skip a beat? Does medullary anatomy send you into respiratory arrest? Never fear, here is a thread on the major medullary syndromes!
2/The medulla is like a toll road. Everything going down into the cord must pass through the medulla & everything from the cord going back up to the brain must too. That’s a lot of tracts for a very small territory. Luckily you don’t need to know every tract
@teachplaygrub I enjoy your posts, thank you!
@teachplaygrub Love how engaging this is. What’s your favorite clinical pearl for remembering the differences between medial and lateral medullary syndromes?
@teachplaygrub Great thread topic, medullary strokes can look intimidating but breaking down the syndromes makes them way more approachable.
