DEFINITION• The cerebellum ( Latin word means little brain)
is the region of brain that plays an important role in motor control.
![Page 3: Cerebellum](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070317/55655217d8b42a9b4c8b5257/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Location• The cerebellum is located below the cerebrum
at the rear of the skull.

VERMIS• The region of the cerebellum lying between and
connecting the two hemispheres.• It is composed of nine parts.

CEREBELLAR HEMISPHERES• These are the extended portions on either side of the vermis.
Each hemisphere has two portions:1. Lobulus ansiformis or ansiform lobe :
It is the larger portion of the cerebellar hemisphere.2. Lobulus paramedianus or paramedian lobe:
It is the smaller portion of the cerebellar hemisphere
![Page 14: Cerebellum](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070317/55655217d8b42a9b4c8b5257/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
LOBES1. Anterior lobe :
This include lingula, central lobe and culmen. It is separated by posterior lube by primary fissure.
2. Posterior lobe :It consists of lobulus simplex , declive , tuber , pyramid , uvula , paraflocculi and the two portion of hemispheres ansiform lobe and paramedian lobe.
![Page 15: Cerebellum](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070317/55655217d8b42a9b4c8b5257/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
• Flocculonodular lobe :It includes and the lateral extension on either side called floccules. it is separated from rest of the cerebellum by posteolateral fissure.

FUNCTIONAL AND PHYLOGENETIC SUBDIVISION• Vestibulocerebellum :
It includes flocculonodular lobe that forms the vestibulocerebellum
• Spinocerebellum :It includes lingula,central lobe,lobulus simplex,declive,tuber,pyramid,uvula and para flocculi and medial portions of lobulus ansiformis and lobulus paramedians.
• Corticocerebellum : It includes the lateral portions of lobulus ansiformis and lobulus paramedians

FUNCTIONAL AND PHYLOGENETIC SUBDIVISION
It maintains the muscle tone and adjustment of muscle contraction during movement.It also regulates posture and equilibrium.
Damping actionControl of ballistic movementTiming and programming the movements, Servomechanism Comparator function
It regulates tone.It regulates posture and equilibrium by receving impulses from vestibular apparatus.

FUNCTIONAL ANATOMY OF CEREBELLUM
• Gray matter :Cerebellum is made up of outer gray matter or cerebellar cortex.
• White matter :Cerebellum is made up of inner white matter.

CLINICAL ABNORMALITIES OF CEREBELLUM
![Page 21: Cerebellum](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070317/55655217d8b42a9b4c8b5257/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
DISTURBANCE IN TONE AND POSTURE 1. ATONIA AND HYPOTONIA :
• Atonia is the loss of tone.• Hypotonia is the reduction of the tone.
Cerebellar lesion causes atonia and hypotonia.During this the facilitatory impulses to gamma motor neurons via spinal cord is loss.
![Page 22: Cerebellum](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070317/55655217d8b42a9b4c8b5257/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
2. ATTTITUDE :Attitude of body changes during cereberall lesion:• Rotation of head toward opposite side.• Lowering of shoulder on the same side.
3. DEVIATION MOVEMENT : It is the lateral deviation of arms when both the arms are
stretched and held in front of the bodies.
![Page 23: Cerebellum](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070317/55655217d8b42a9b4c8b5257/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
DISTURBANCE IN EQUILIBRIUM• WHILE STANDING :
• The legs are spread during standing provide a broad base and body sways side to side with the oscillation of head.
• WHILE MOVING - GAIT :• Gait means the manner of walking.In cerebellar lesion a reeling
and drunken like gait is observed.
![Page 24: Cerebellum](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070317/55655217d8b42a9b4c8b5257/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
DISTURBANCES IN MOVEMENTS• ATAXIA :
• It is lack of coordination of movements.• ASTHENIA :
• It refers to the weakness of muscles and slowness of muscles.• Asynergia :
• It is the lack of coordination between different group of muscles.• Dysmetria :
• It is inability to check the exact strength and duration of muscular contractions required for voluntary act. While reaching an object the arm may be overshoot or it may be fall of the object.
![Page 25: Cerebellum](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070317/55655217d8b42a9b4c8b5257/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
• Astasia :• It is charactrized by unsteady voulantary movements.
• Dysathria :• Incoordination of various muscles and structures involved in
speech.
