MEDULLA OBLONGATA ANATOMY. The most inferior portion of the brain stem, only about 3 centimeters long, is the medulla oblongata. The structure is actually bulbous in design and is a continuation of the pons anteriorly and continuous with the spinal cord posteriorly. This all takes place at the same level as the foramen magnum. When viewing from the external side, the medulla oblongata resembles very closely the spinal cord, with the exception of the pyramids.
