Myoclonic triangle

The Guillain- Mollaret triangle represents a functional link between three key groups in the cerebellum and brain stem, which are responsible for the coordination of movements of importance. It was named after Georges Guillain and Pierre Mollaret, two French neurologist from the 20th century named.

The nuclei are involved in the red nucleus in the midbrain, which projected over the tegmental tract centralis to the inferior olive. This projected turn on the climbing fibers to the dentate nucleus of the cerebellum. These fibers run it through the inferior cerebellar peduncle ( inferior cerebellar peduncle ). By the feedback of the NCL. gyrus to the Ncl. ruber - these fibers then pass through the superior cerebellar peduncle ( superior cerebellar peduncle ) - closes the Guillain- Mollaret Triangle.
