The motor and proprioceptive innervation of the retractor bulbi muscle of the lamb.
The motor and proprioceptive innervation of the retractor bulbi muscle of the lamb has been studied. The motor innovation of the muscles supplied only by the abducens never. The proprioceptive nervous fibers coming from the muscle spindles of this extraocular muscle enter the brain stem through the ophthalmic branch of the trigeminal nerve and have their perikarya in the semilunar ganglion.
