Q

itra axial lesion to CN 4 manifestations

A

contralateral eye symptoms to lesion

contralateral motor weakness and numbness to touch and pain/temp

SO EYE SX WILL BE ON SAME SIDE AS WEAKNESS AND SENS LOSS!

16
Q

intraxial lesion of CN 7

A

CN 7 problems and CN6 (abducens) would be affected (decreased lateral rectus muscle action)

contralateral weakness, reduced sensation

17
Q

extracranial CN 8 lesion manifestations

A

reduced hearing and vertigo (a visual hallucination that the world is moving) nystagmus is associated with this

dizziness

hyperacusis

18
Q

extracranial CN 9 lesion manifestations

A

glossopharyngeal

reduced gag reflex on side of lesion

reduced sensation of post palate on side of lesion

difficulty initiating swallowing

reduced taste in back 1/3 of tongue

dry mouth potentially (parotid gland)

carotid body stimulated

19
Q

extracranial CN X lesion manifestations

A

vagus

pharyngeal and laryngeal weakness (hoarse voice)

decreased palatal elevation (uvula deviated toward opposite side)

difficulty swallowing (nasal regurg)

also affects aortic arch and baro/chemo receptors

PARA to viscera

20
Q

intra axial laterall medullary lesion effects

A

CN X affected - hoarsenes, uvular deviation opposite side

contralateral sensory loss (ALS)

horners syndroem bc descending SYM go thru this area

21
Q

extracranial CN 11 manifestations

A

sternocleidomastoid weakness when turning head on contralateral side of lesion

trapezeus weakness (shrugging)

22
Q

extracreanial lesion of CN 12 manifestations

A

tongue deviation towards side fo leison (“lick your wounds”)

toungue weakness/atrophy

23
Q

intraxial lesion to CN 12 manifestation

A

medial medullary lesion

contralateral touch and proprioception loss and corticospinal weakness

24
Q

compare and contrast which nerves are affected in lateral vs medial medullary lesions

A
25
Q

major blood vessels supplying brains stem

A

basialar midline artery

anterior spinal artery also midline

bilateral symmetric manifestations may be issues in these

PICA

AICA

SCA

all are circumferential arteries

PCA supplies occipital and midbrain

26
Q
A
27
Q

medulla arteries

A

supply paramedian area

28
Q

paramedian infarct in medulla

A

in medulla

affecting somatic efferents

29
Q

dorsolateral infarct in medulla

A

in medulla

more anterolateral system involvement

30
Q

artery supply in the pons

A

AICA

most blood supply comes off of basilar artery

31
Q

paramedian infarct in pons

A

affects 6th nerve with contralateral weakness and numbness

32
Q

dorsolateral infarct in pons

A

CN 7 and usually 6 affected

33
Q

midbrain blood supply

A

PCA or SCA

34
Q

effect of dorsolateral and paramedian infarcts on intra axial lesion in midbrain

A
