The midbrain is found on top of a structure called the pons. The pons (bridge) is next to the brain stem. The area is very small and the effects of damage depends on where and how much. The best out come is a mild trauma and the worse is cell death that leads to symptoms such as tremors, physical instability and emotional changes. Some think that mental illness may also be the outcome.
