Vagal trigone explained

Vagal trigone
Latin:	trigonum nervi vagi

The vagal trigone (ala cinerea) is a triangular eminence upon the rhomboid fossa produced by the underlying dorsal nucleus of vagus nerve.^[1]

The vagal trigone is separated from the area postrema by a narrow strip of thickened ependyma – the funiculus separans.^[2]
