Cerebellar peduncle Cerebellar peduncle Cerebellar peduncles connect the cerebellum to the brain stem. There are six cerebellar peduncles in total, three on each side: The peduncles form the lateral border of the fourth ventricle, and form a distinctive diamond the middle peduncle forming the central corners of the diamond, while the superior and inferior peduncles form the superior and inferior edges, respectively.

They are bridged by the superior medullary
