Central projections of the eigth cranial nerve in lampreys.
The octavolateralis area in anamniotic vertebrates constitutes the bulk of the hindbrain alar plate and is the primary target of three cranial nerves : anterior lateral line, octavius, and posterior lateral line 2,3,6-s. There is no agreement in the literature regarding the exact rostrocaudal extent of the octavolateralis area or the nomenclature applied to this area, but most workers have reco...
متن کاملCerebellopontine angle facial schwannoma relapsing towards middle cranial fossa
Facial nerve schwannomas involving posterior and middle fossas are quite rare. Here, we report an unusual case of cerebellopontine angle facial schwannoma that involved the middle cranial fossa, two years after the first operation. A 53-year-old woman presented with a 3-year history of a progressive left side hearing loss and 6-month history of a left facial spasm and palsy. Magnetic resonance ...
متن کاملCerebellopontine angle arachnoid cyst: a case of hemifacial spasm caused by an organic lesion other than neurovascular compression: case report.
OBJECTIVE A rare case of cerebellopontine angle arachnoid cyst manifesting as hemifacial spasm (HFS) is reported. The patient is a 42-year-old woman with 10-month history of left HFS. A preoperative magnetic resonance imaging scan showed a well-demarcated area, hypointense on T1-weighted imaging and hyperintense on T2-weighted imaging, in the left cerebellopontine angle, without contrast enhanc...
متن کاملFacial nerve schwannoma arising from the cerebellopontine angle.
A 74-year-old female suffered hearing disturbance in the right ear persisting for several years, followed by sudden onset of right facial nerve palsy. Her symptoms gradually worsened and neuroradiological imaging revealed a 4-cm cerebellopontine angle (CPA) tumor. Intraoperatively, the tumor was found to originate from the facial nerve. Total removal of the tumor was achieved, followed by a spl...
متن کاملIdiopathic ocular neuromyotonia: a neurovascular compression syndrome?
Ocular neuromyotonia in the muscles innervated by the right oculomotor nerve was diagnosed in a patient without a history of radiation therapy. Electromyography of the levator palpebrae showed continuous motor unit activity. Brain MRI disclosed a close contact between the right third cranial nerve and a basilar artery dolichoectasia. The patient partly benefited from carbamazepine therapy. This...
