El nervio abducente está compuesto sólo de fibras motoras que se originan de un grupo nuclear: el núcleo abducente. [...] El núcleo abducente recibe aferencias: 1) de los hemisferios cerebrales mediante fibras corticonucleares. 2) de los colículos superiores mediante fibras tectobulbares, las cuales llevan información de la corteza visual. 3) fibras del fascículo longitudinal medial, el cual interconecta el núcleo abducente con los núcleos del III, IV y núcleos vestibulares. Esta comunicación internuclear se relaciona con la coordinación de los movimientos oculares.
