  2. Trigeminal neuralgia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trigeminal_neuralgia

    The trigeminal nerve is a paired cranial nerve that has three major branches: the ophthalmic nerve (V 1), the maxillary nerve (V 2), and the mandibular nerve (V 3). One, two, or all three branches of the nerve may be affected. Trigeminal neuralgia most commonly involves the middle branch (the maxillary nerve or V 2) and lower branch (mandibular ...

  3. Occipital neuralgia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Occipital_neuralgia

    Occipital neuralgia is caused by damage to the occipital nerves, which can arise from trauma (usually concussive or cervical), physical stress on the nerve, repetitive neck contraction, flexion or extension, and/or as a result of medical complications (such as osteochondroma, a benign bone tumour). A rare cause is a cerebrospinal fluid leak.

  4. Posterior triangle of the neck - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Posterior_triangle_of_the_neck

    The posterior triangle is crossed, about 2.5 cm above the clavicle, by the inferior belly of the omohyoid muscle, which divides the space into two triangles: an upper or occipital triangle. a lower or subclavian triangle (or supraclavicular triangle)

  5. Supraclavicular nerves - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supraclavicular_nerves

    Plan of the cervical plexus. (Superficial descending labeled at bottom left.) The supraclavicular nerve is a cutaneous (sensory) nerve of the cervical plexus that arises from the third and fourth cervical (spinal) nerves. It emerges from beneath the posterior border of the sternocleidomastoid muscle, then split into multiple branches.

  6. Cervical branch of the facial nerve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cervical_branch_of_the...

    Structure. The cervical branch of the facial nerve is a branch of the facial nerve (VII). It runs forward beneath the platysma muscle, and forms a series of arches across the side of the neck over the suprahyoid region. One branch descends to join the cervical cutaneous nerve from the cervical plexus.

  7. Trigeminal nerve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trigeminal_nerve

    t. e. In neuroanatomy, the trigeminal nerve (lit. triplet nerve), also known as the fifth cranial nerve, cranial nerve V, or simply CN V, is a cranial nerve responsible for sensation in the face and motor functions such as biting and chewing; it is the most complex of the cranial nerves. Its name (trigeminal, from Latin tri- 'three' and ...

  8. Cerebellopontine angle syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cerebellopontine_angle...

    The cerebellopontine angle syndrome is a distinct neurological syndrome of deficits that can arise due to the closeness of the cerebellopontine angle to specific cranial nerves. [1] Indications include unilateral hearing loss (85%), speech impediments, disequilibrium, tremors or other loss of motor control. The cerebellopontine angle cistern is ...

  9. Facial nerve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Facial_nerve

    Facial expression. The main function of the facial nerve is motor control of all the muscles of facial expression. It also innervates the posterior belly of the digastric muscle, the stylohyoid muscle, and the stapedius muscle of the middle ear. These skeletal muscles are developed from the second pharyngeal arch.
