Cranial Nerve 1: Olfactory Nerve
Anosmia
• Patients complain of loss of taste.
• Head injury is a common cause.
Cranial Nerve II: Optic Nerve
Cranial Nerves III, IV, VI: Oculomotor, Trochlear, Abducens
Trochlear• Nucleus in midbrain• Nerve exits dorsal surface and crosses over• Moves eye medially and downward
Oculomotor• Nucleus in midbrain• Innervates 4 extraocular muscles and functions in most eye movements• Contains parasympathetic which innervates pupillary constrictor musclesand ciliary muscle of lens.
Abducens• Nucleus in pons• Moves eye laterally
• Trigeminal ganglion • Ophthalmic, maxillary and mandibular divisions
• Sensory: Touch, pain, temp, proprioception for face, mouth,• anterior 2/3 of tongue, nasal sinuses.• Motor: Muscles of chewing, tensor tympani muscle
Cranial Nerve V: Trigeminal Nerve
• Motor function: muscles of facial expression.
• Parasympathetic function: innervation of lacrimal glands and some salivary gland.
• Visceral sensory function: taste from anterior 2/3 of tongue
Cranial Nerve VII: Facial Nerve
Facial Nerve Lesionscause paralysis in face
Bell’s Palsy Facial nerve is impaired and then gradually recovers. Cause unknown,(viral or inflammatory)
• Auditory and vestibular sensation
• Travels with facial nerve• Branches go to cochlea, vestibule
Cranial Nerve VIII: Vestibulocochlear Nerve
Vestibular and Cochlear Sensory Organs
Lesions in Auditory Pathway
1. During auditory seizures: patients often report tonesfrom the side opposite the cortical area involved in the seizure.
2. Vertigo can be caused by damage to vestibular pathways
• Motor function: stylopharyngeus muscle which elevates pharynx during talking and swallowing and participates in gag reflex.
• Parasympathetic function: innervation of parotid salivary gland.
• Visceral sensory function: taste from posterior1/3 of tongue
Cranial Nerve IX: Glossopharyngeal Nerve
• Motor function: pharyngeal muscles (swallowing) & laryngeal muscles (vocalization)
• Parasympathetic function: innervation of heart, lungs, most if digestive tract.
• Somatic sensation function: sensation from pharynx, meninges, external auditory meatus.
Cranial Nerve X: Vagus Nerve
Motor : sternomastoid upper trapezius muscles
Cranial Nerve XI: Spinal Accessory Nerve
Motor function: intrinsic and extrinsic tongue muscles.
Cranial Nerve XII: Hypoglossal Nerve
