what is CN I?
olfactory nerve
what is CN II?
optic nerve
what is CN III and its functions?
oculomotor nerve
- motor: levator palpebrae sup, all extraocular muscles (except SO and LR),
- parasymp. motor: pupi constriction and lens movement/ciliary muscles
what is CN VI?
trochlear nerve; purpose is for SO
what is CN V?
trigeminal nerve
- -sensation (touch, pain, temp, vibrations, proprioception) for the face (territories of V1, V2, and V3), mouth, ant 2/3s of the tongue, nasal sinuses, and meninges
- -pain is also supratenorial dura mater (above cerebellum)
-inns MOMs and tensor tympani muscle
what is CN VI?
abducens nerve– inns LR
what is CN VII?
facial nerve
- motor: muscles of facial expression, stapedius muscle, and part of digastric muscles
- parasymp: all glands but parotid
- special sensory: ant 2/3s of tongue taste
- sensation from small region near external auditory meatus
what is CN VIII?
vestibulocochlear nerve
what is CN IX?
glossopharyngeal nerve
–branchial motor: stylopharyngeus muscle
- parasymp: parotid gland
- general somatic sensory: -sensation from middle ear, region near EAM, pharynx, and post 1/3 of tongue
visceral sensory (special) = taste from post 1/3 of tongue
visceral sensory = chemo- and baroreceptors of carotid body
what is CN X?
vagus nerve
– branchial motor: pharyngeal muscles (swallowing) and laryngeal = voice
–parasymp = heart, lungs, and G tract down to splenic flexure
–general somatic sensory: sensation from pharynx, meninges, and a small region near EAM
visceral sensory (special): taste from epiglottis and pharynx
–visceral sensory (general): chemo and baroreceptors of the aortic arch
what is CN XI?
Accessory nerve
what is CN XII?
hypoglossal nerve, for intrinsic muscles of the tongue
describe the locations of the cranial nerves nuclei
CN I and II –> outside of the brainstain
CN III, IV,–> in the midbrain
CN V, VI, VII, VIII –> in the pons
CN IX, X, XI, XII –> in the midbrain
describe conjugate eye movements on the cortical level
the visual cortex connects to the parieto-occipito-temporal area (ipsilateral pursuit and contralateral eye movements)
it also connects to the frontal eye fields–> contralateral saccades/scanning
the posterior eye field controls smooth pursuit
why is conjugate eye movement important?
keeps vision in focus
describe trigeminal neuralgia
- most often in the V2 or V3 region of face
- recurrent episodes of brief but severe pain
- easily triggered by light stimulus
what are the CNs derived from ectoderm?
CN I, II, VIII
-purely sensory
what are the CNs derived from neural crest?
V, VII, IX, X, XI
–from branchial arches, mixed (sensory and motor)
–special motor
