The vestibulocochlear nerve or auditory vestibular nerve, also known as the eighth cranial nerve, cranial nerve VIII, or simply CN VIII, is a cranial nerve that transmits sound and equilibrium (balance) information from the inner ear to the brain.
25 cze 2024 · The vestibulocochlear nerve is the eighth paired cranial nerve. It is comprised of two components - vestibular fibres and cochlear fibres. Both have a purely sensory function.
22 maj 2023 · The vestibulocochlear nerve consists of the vestibular and cochlear nerves, also known as cranial nerve eight (CN VIII). Each nerve has distinct nuclei within the brainstem. The vestibular nerve is primarily responsible for maintaining body balance and eye movements, while the cochlear nerve is responsible for hearing.[1]
23 wrz 2024 · The vestibulocochlear nerve is the eighth (CN VIII) cranial nerve (TA: nervus vestibulocochlearis or nervus cranialis VIII). It exits the brainstem through the cerebellopontine angle, passing into the internal acoustic meatus as part of the acousticofacial bundle.
11 paź 2024 · The vestibulocochlear nerve is one of 12 cranial nerves that help with processes that allow you to use senses (like hearing, smell, taste and touch) and make facial expressions. It’s the eighth cranial nerve, which is involved in hearing and balance, specifically.
The vestibulocochlear is one of the 12 cranial nerves, it runs between the pons (the middle of the brainstem) and the medulla oblongata (the lower part of the brainstem). The vestibular part of the nerve then travels from the inner ear in a group of nerve cells called the vestibular ganglion.
