Lesion in Trigeminal Nerve
- sensory
- Peripheral & Central
Lesion in Trigeminal Nerve
- Sensory
- Motor
- Reflexes
Lesion in Trigeminal Nerve
- sensory Peripheral Lesion
- Loss of sensations on the same side of the face (sparing the angle of the angle of the mandible).
- Loss of general sensations over the anterior 2/3 s of the tongue, (in lesions of the mandibular division).
Lesion in Trigeminal Nerve
- Motor Lesion
- Weakness of the muscles of mastication on the same side of the lesion.
- Deviation of the jaw to the affected side due to the unopposed action of the pterygoid muscles of the healthy Side
Lesion in Trigeminal Nerve
- Sensory Central Lesion
Lesion in Trigeminal Nerve
- Reflexes Affected
Def of Trigeminal Neuralgia
- Severe attacks of pain along one or more of the sensory branches of the trigeminal nerve, usually the maxillary or mandibular.
Etiology of Trigeminal Neuralgia
CP of Trigeminal Neuralgia
CP of Trigeminal Neuralgia
- Site & reference
- One or more branches of the TN (usually the maxillary or mandibular).
- Pain is unilateral (rarely bilateral).
CP of Trigeminal Neuralgia
- characters & Duration
- Severe agonizing: stabbing, burning, electric shocks.
- Several seconds to several minutes (rarely hours or even longer).
- Recurrent: but the patient is completely free in between the attacks.
CP of Trigeminal Neuralgia
- PPT by
Movements of the jaw: e.g. laughing & mastication.
CP of Trigeminal Neuralgia
- Relieved By
Spontaneously, or by potent analgesics.
CP of Trigeminal Neuralgia
- Associated Symptoms
Pain → brief muscle spasm of the facial muscles → tic.

The Motor Part of Facial Nerve Supplies?
1) Muscles of facial expression.
2) Platysma.
3) Stylohyoid.
4) Stapedius.
5) PoSterior belly of digastric muscle.
The Sensory Part of Facial Nerve Supplies?
The Sensory Part of Facial Nerve Supplies?
- Parasympathetic Fibers
to submaxillary, sublingual, and lacrimal glands.
The Sensory Part of Facial Nerve Supplies?
- Taste fibers
from the anterior 2/3 of the tongue.
The Sensory Part of Facial Nerve Supplies?
- Proprioception sesnations
from the muscles.

Causes of Lesions in The Facial Nerve
- Peripheral
- Nuclear lesions in the pons
- Infra-nuclear lesions cerebello-pontine angle
- Infra-nuclear lesions in the in the facial canal
Causes of Peripheral Facial Paralysis
Causes of Peripheral Facial Paralysis
- Nuclear Lesions in Pons
- Infective: Poliomyelitis, encephalitis, tuberculoma.
- Neoplasm: Astrocytoma
- Vascular: Foville’s neurinoma.
- Demyelinating: M.S.
Causes of Peripheral Facial Paralysis
- Infra-nuclear lesions in the cerebello-pontine angle
- Acoustic neurinoma.
- Cerebello- pontine angle: meningioma, ependymoma, or congenital aneurysm
- Glioma of brain stem or cerebellum syndrome invading the cerebello-pontine angle
- Cystic arachnoiditis.
- Basal meningitis
Causes of Peripheral Facial Paralysis
- Infra-Nuclear Lesions in the facial Canal
- Middle ear disease.
- Bell’s palsy.
- Facial nerve neuroma
