Gland of the Vestibule Minor

The vestibular gland, or small gland, is one of the sense organs that helps us navigate space. It is located in the vestibule of the inner ear and is responsible for perceiving movements of the head and body.

The vestibular gland consists of two parts: medial and lateral. The medial part is responsible for the perception of head movement, and the lateral part is responsible for the perception of body movement. When we move our heads, the lateral vestibular gland sends signals to the brain, which then processes them and allows us to maintain balance and navigate in space.

In addition, the vestibular gland is also involved in the regulation of blood pressure and heartbeat. When we are in motion, it sends signals that regulate the functioning of the heart and blood vessels to ensure sufficient blood supply to all organs and tissues.

However, if the vestibule gland is damaged or does not work properly, it can lead to poor balance, dizziness, and other health problems. Therefore, it is important to take care of your health and monitor the functioning of this important gland.



The vestibular gland, or small glandular bone, is an anatomical formation of the inner ear. It is located in the semicircular canals, which are located on the posterior wall of the vestibule sac. Translated into Russian, the names have a sound similarity and relate to hearing - minor (small), vestibulum (vestibulum).

The structure of the vestibule gland consists of a cytoplasmic membrane that contains various proteins and enzymes, as well as an electrical sensor. The substance produced by the gland is secreted into the vestibular sac and is called static fluid. It is produced constantly and regulates the flow of fluid coming from the aqueduct of the vestibule into the vestibule sac.
