Most current anatomical texts describe the sensory trigeminal nuclei and the nucleus of the solitary tract as simple stations in pathways mediating afferent sensory impulses of somatic and visceral origin, respectively. The trigeminal nerve fibers are considered as being purely somatic, terminating exclusively in the trigeminal nuclei, which in addition are believed to receive small somatic afferent components of the VIIth, IXth and Xth cranial nerves. The visceral afferent fibers of the latter nerves are said to terminate in the nucleus of the solitary tract and to constitute the only primary sensory supply of this nucleus. The two nuclei according to current descriptions thus apparently are functionally different and well defined structures. Recent observations on the structure of the sensory trigeminal nuclei (Olseewski, '50; Bstrom, '53) suggest that eonditions may be more complex than generally assumed, as do also some observations on the afferent cranial nerve fibers. However, there are still important gaps in our knowledge of the latter item. Investigations based on normal material are in part mutually contradictory, and experimental studies have, so far, been made with the Marchi method only, which leaves
