crus cerebri

crus cerebri
[TA] the part of the basis pedunculi anterior to the substantia nigra; it is a large bundle of nerve fiber tracts consisting of the pyramidal tract, corticopontine tract, and corticoreticular fibers. Some authorities do not include the substantia nigra in the basis pedunculi and so use the terms crus cerebri and basis pedunculi synonymously to denote this fiber bundle.
