Trigeminal Nerve Injuries

Frequency of trigeminal nerve injuries following third molar removal.

PURPOSE To estimate oral and maxillofacial surgery reporting of the frequency of temporary and permanent inferior alveolar and lingual nerve damage from lower third molar extraction and injury etiology, and to identify factors associated with injury rates. MATERIALS AND METHODS A postal survey was sent to all members of the California Association of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons requesting ...

Ancient Schwannoma of the Trigeminal Nerve Mimicking High Grade Lesion

  Ancient schwannomas rarely found in the central nervous system and ancient change in an intracranial schwannoma (intracranial portion of the trigeminal nerve) is extremely rare. A seventy-year man presented with headache of 3 months duration and one episode of generalized tonic-clonic seizures. Imaging findings were suggestive of left temporal high grade lesion. During surgery there was well...

Experimental trigeminal nerve injury.

The successful reinnervation of peripheral targets after injury varies with the axonal population of the nerve that is injured and the extent of the dislocation of its central component from the peripheral endoneurial tube. Larger-diameter axons such as those supplying mechanoreceptors recover more readily than narrower axons such as those supplying taste. A complex, bi-directional interaction ...
