all facial nerve components run through the internal auditory canal, a lesion can damage all components (motor and sensory)

33
Q

What will result as a lesion to the facial nerve in the facial canal

A

lesion can damage all components (motor and sensory); chorda tympani/facial nerve branches
can also be damaged from periphery

34
Q

What will result as a lesion to the facial nerve in the stylomastoid foramen

A

damage/paralysis to the muscles of facial expression (SVE) and GSA (skin of ear)

35
Q

A lesion of the upper motor neuron in the corticobulbar tract results in this

A 
opposite side (contralateral)
weakness to the lower face and sparse weakness to upper face; eye movements not effected
36
Q

A lesion of the lower motor neuron in the facial nucleus results in what type of paralysis

A

ipsilateral; both lower and upper face affected; eye movements effected

37
Q

This is a result of the parasympathetic fibers to submandibular ganglion being re-routed to pterygopalatine ganglion

A

Crocodile tears; unilateral tearing in anticipation of, and during meals
history of Bell’s palsy

38
Q

This is a result of a surpanuclear lesion (above nucleus)

A

paralysis of muscles of facial expression below the level of the eye
opposite the lesion

39
Q

In which nucleus would you find the SVE component of CN V (cell body of origin)

A

trigeminal motor nucleus

40
Q

What is the cell body of origin /nucleus of the GSAp and GSAe component of CN V and where does it terminate

A

unipolar cell bodies; trigeminal mesencephalic nucleus (GSAp)
terminate - trigeminal spinal and principal (GSAe)

41
Q

What is unique about the GSA component of CN V (trigeminal mesencephalic nucleus)

A

Do not have cell bodies in spinal cord ganglia or cranial nerve ganglia

42
Q

What does the SVE component of trigeminal control

A

muscles of mastication

43
Q

What does the GSA component of trigeminal control

A

propriception of the muscles of mastication
pressure/tension of periodontal ligaments
sensation; skin of face, oronasal mucous membranes, teeth, dura mater, pain crude touch, temperature

44
Q

What are the three divisions of the trigeminal nerve

A

opthalmic (I)
maxillary (II)
mandibular (III)

45
Q

What region is served by the ophthalmic division of trigeminal

A

upper face

sensory only

46
Q

What region is served by the maxillary division of trigeminal

A

sensory only
47
Q

What region is served by the mandibular division of trigeminal

A

VII - ear
IX - ear
X - ear

49
Q

What is meant by the somatototopic organization of the trigeminal spinal tract

A

it means that there are clear divisions between the divisions of trigeminal; like an onion - a certain portion of the face is directly correlated tot a certain portion of the spinal tract/nucleus

50
Q

rostral pons and mesencephalon adjacent to the ventricle

- midbrain

51

ventral trigeminothalamic
dorsal trigeminothalamic
project to ventral posteriomedial nucleus (VPM)

55
Q

What is different about the ventral and dorsal trigeminothalamic pathways

A

ventral projects contralaterally to VPM; pain, touch temp
dorsal projects bilaterally to VPM; pressure, discriminatory touch

thalamas, projects into the post central gyrus

This is the lightly myelinated homologue of the anteriolateral system; pain, crude touch, temperature

A

trigeminal spinal nucleus

60
Q

This stimulates the cornea and the ispsilteral eye closes

A

direct corneal reflex

61
Q

This stimulated the cornea and the contralateral eye closes

A

consensual corneal reflex

62
Q

The trigeminal nerve projects where to stimulate the cornea

A

trigeminal principal nucleus

trigeminal spinal nucleus

63
Q

Which trigeminal nucleus relays bilaterally to facial nucleus (involving corneal reflex)

A

trigeminal spinal nucleus

64
Q

What is the jaw-jerk reflex

A

the tapping of a persons jaw at the chin to test the trigeminal nerve innervating the masseter; myotatic

65
Q

This will cause the jaw-jerk reflex to become exaggerated

A

upper motor neuron lesion accentuates reflex

lower motor neuron lesion lessens reflex

66

This is usually unilateral, excruciating, lancing (spontaneous) pain affecting the ophthalmic (<5%) and mandibular division

A

trigeminal neuralgia

67
Q

What can affect trigeminal neuralgia

A 
compression of nerve
trigger point
onset of middle age
often response to drug the ape
microvascular decompression may be effective
