Q

Firulais, a terrier mix, is showing signs of a CNS lesion. He displays a normal response to the menace response test in both eyes, and an absent pupillary light reflex (PLR) in the left eye. You also notice lateral strabismus in the left eye. Tapping on the medial and lateral canthus of the left eye does not elicit a response, nor does manipulating the whiskers on the left side of the maxilla. Pinching the skin on the left side of the mandible also does not elicit a response.

Which cranial nerve(s) are showing deficits in little Firulais?

A

CN 3 and 5

Q

You are presented with a cat whose owner is reporting that she has been coughing and hacking when trying to eat and drink. Testing her gag reflex shows that the reflex is absent. The tongue responds to stimulation and seems to move normally. Her vocalizations also seem normal, and the owner is reporting normal bowel movements/urination.

Which cranial nerve(s) are showing a deficit?

A

glossopharyngeal (9)
