All are true about vestibular nerve EXCEPT
Vestibular nerve nuclei lie at the pontomedullary junction. It arises from bipolar cells in the vestibular ganglion, ganglion of Scarpa, which is situated in the upper pa of the outer end of the internal auditory meatus. The vestibular nerve enters the brain stem at the pontomedullary junction and contains two divisions, the superior and inferior vestibular nerves. The superior vestibular nerve innervates the utricle, as well as the superior and lateral canals. The inferior vestibular nerve innervates the posterior canal and the saccule. Most of the afferent fibers then terminate in one of the four ventricular nuclei, which contain the cell bodies of the second-order neurons of the vestibular nerve. These nuclei are located on lateral floor and wall of the fouh ventricle in the pons and medulla.
It has two divisions- superior and inferior vestibular
Vestibular nuclei are situated at junction of pons and medulla
Nerve fibers relay at Scarpa's ganglion
Nucleus lies in midbrain near aqueduct
