GLOSSOPHARYNGEAL NERVE (IX)
![Page 4: Bulbar Cranial nerves (9-10-11-12) - bulbar palsy - Walid Reda Ashour](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061121/546e129daf7959274d8b487d/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
This is a mixed nerve carrying motor, sensory &
autonomic (parasympathetic) fibres.
1. Motor fibres: to the - Stylopharyngeus.
- Constrictors of the pharynx.
2. Sensory fibres:
- General sensations from the posterior 1/3 of tongue,
pharynx & tonsils.
- Taste sensation from the posterior 1/3 of tongue.
3. Autonomic fibres: Parasympathetic fibres to the Parotid
gland.
![Page 5: Bulbar Cranial nerves (9-10-11-12) - bulbar palsy - Walid Reda Ashour](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061121/546e129daf7959274d8b487d/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
LESION:
1 . Ipsilateral loss of taste & general sensations
from the posterior V3 of the tongue.
2. Ipsilateral loss of the pharyngeal reflex (afferent
Cr 9, efferent Cr 10).
N.B.: Isolated lesions of the glossopharyngeal nerve
do not occur as it is usually damaged in
association with the vagus & accessory nerves at
the jugular foramen (jugular foramen syndrome).

VAGUS NERVE ( X )
![Page 7: Bulbar Cranial nerves (9-10-11-12) - bulbar palsy - Walid Reda Ashour](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061121/546e129daf7959274d8b487d/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
This is a mixed nerve carrying motor, sensory &
autonomic (parasympathetic) fibres.
1. Motor fibres: to the soft palate, pharynx & larynx.
2. Sensory fibres: from
- The skin over the external auditory meatus.
- The thoracic & abdominal viscera.
3. Autonomic fibres: Parasympathetic fibres to the
heart (inhibitory), the G.I.t. & the bronchial tree
(secretory & motor).

LESION:
1. Palato-pharyngeo-laryngeal paralysis resulting in
"True Bulbar Palsy" manifested by:
- Bulbar symptoms: Dysphagia,
Dysarthria, Dysphonia & Nasal regurge.
- Ipsilateral loss of palatal &
pharyngeal reflexes.
2. Tachycardia & constipation.

ACCESSORY NERVE
)XI(
![Page 10: Bulbar Cranial nerves (9-10-11-12) - bulbar palsy - Walid Reda Ashour](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061121/546e129daf7959274d8b487d/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
This nerve is purely motor & is formed of 2 parts:
1. Cranial part: It arises in the medulla & runs with the vagus
nerve to share in the motor innervation of the soft palate &
pharynx.
2. Spinal part: It arises from the A.H.C. of the upper five
cervical segments, ascends along side the spinal cord and
enters the cranial cavity through the foramen magnum. It
joins the cranial portion to exit through the jugular foramen
to supply the Sternomastoid & Trapezius muscles.
LESION: Ipsilateral paralysis of the Sternomastoid &
Trapezius muscles.

HYPOGLOSSAL NERVE )XII (
![Page 12: Bulbar Cranial nerves (9-10-11-12) - bulbar palsy - Walid Reda Ashour](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061121/546e129daf7959274d8b487d/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
![Page 13: Bulbar Cranial nerves (9-10-11-12) - bulbar palsy - Walid Reda Ashour](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061121/546e129daf7959274d8b487d/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
This is a purely motor nerve which supplies the intrinsic
muscles of the tongue.
LESION:
1. U.M.N.L.: - Unilateral: Deviation of the tongue to the
opposite side of the lesion.
- Bilateral: Inability to protrude the tongue
(spastic tongue)
In both cases there is no wasting or fasciculation.
2. L.M.N.L.: - Unilateral: Deviation of the tongue to the side of
the lesion.
- Bilateral: Inability to protrude the tongue. In
both cases there is wasting and fasciculation.

![Page 15: Bulbar Cranial nerves (9-10-11-12) - bulbar palsy - Walid Reda Ashour](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061121/546e129daf7959274d8b487d/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
• The Motor nuclei of the Cranial Nerves are arranged in the
Brain Stem as follows:
Cr 3 & 4 in Midbrain * Cr 5, 6 & 7 in Pons
* Cr 9, 10, 11 & 12 in Medulla
The Pyramidal System: It supplies the opposite side of the
body.
It originates in the motor area (4) & premotor area (6) &
terminates at:
* The anterior horn cells (A.H.C.) of the different levels of the
spinal cord (Corticospinal Tract).
* Motor nuclei of the Cranial Nerves at different levels of the
brain stem (Corticonuclear Tract).
