20 kwi 2024 · Trigeminal neuralgia is a clinical condition characterized by sharp, electrical, shock-like, paroxysmal lancinating pain within the distribution of one or more trigeminal nerve branches. Most cases are due to trigeminal nerve compression at the root entry zone by the superior cerebellar artery.
1 maj 2023 · The trigeminal nerve (cranial nerve V; CN V) is a mixed sensory and motor nerve. It supplies the face via three branches of the nerve: from rostral to caudal, the sensory ophthalmic nerve (V1), the sensory maxillary nerve (V2), and the mixed sensory and motor mandibular nerve (V3).
Abstract. There are close functional and anatomical relationships between cranial nerves V and VII in both their sensory and motor divisions. Sensation on the face is innervated by the trigeminal nerves (V) as are the muscles of mastication, but the muscles of facial expression are innervated mainly by the facial nerve (VII) as is the sensation ...
5 cze 2023 · The goal of this activity is to review the neuroanatomy of the trigeminal nerve and cover the reflex tests employed to distinguish between lesions of the trigeminal nerve. The trigeminal nerve is the fifth cranial nerve (CN V) and the largest of the paired cranial nerves.
Of all cranial nerves, the trigeminal nerve is the largest and the most widely distributed in the supra-hyoid neck. It provides sensory input from the face and motor innervation to the muscles of mastication.
In select cases, contrast medium administration, heavily T2-weighted sequences, or MR angiography may prove to be diagnostic. This review aims to review the anatomy of the trigeminal nerve briefly, followed by illustrations of various lesions that may present with trigeminal nerve dysfunction.
This study provides an updated overview of the clinical characteristics of post-traumatic trigeminal neuropathic pain (PTNP) resulting from dental procedures or facial trauma, addressing its etiology, prevalence, evaluation, management, and prognosis.
