Electrical stimulation of cranial nerves in cognition and disease [PDF]

open access: yesBrain Stimulation, 2020
The cranial nerves are the pathways through which environmental information (sensation) is directly communicated to the brain, leading to perception, and giving rise to higher cognition. Because cranial nerves determine and modulate brain function, invasive and non-invasive cranial nerve electrical stimulation methods have applications in the clinical,

Cranial nerve involvement in Charcot–Marie–Tooth Disease

Journal of Clinical Neuroscience, 2017
Charcot-Marie-Tooth Disease (CMT) is a rare disorder with less than 200,000 cases reported in the US every year, making diagnosis challenging. MR and CT imaging has become more common in the evaluation of CMT to identify areas of disease involvement.A 27-year-old female from Guatemala with a past history of polio initially presented to the emergency ...

Cranial nerve neuropathies: a rare manifestation of cat scratch disease

open access: yesBMC Infectious Diseases
Abstract Background: Cranial nerve neuropathies represent a rare manifestation of cat scratch disease (CSD). Only a few case reports have been published, and the full clinical spectrum remains poorly characterized.

Cranial Nerve Imaging and Pathology

open access: yesNeurologic Clinics, 2020
This review provides a symptom-driven approach to neuroimaging of disease processes affecting the cranial nerves. In addition to describing characteristic imaging appearances of a disease, the authors emphasize exceptions to the rules and neuroimaging ...

Cerebrovascular Brainstem Diseases with Isolated Cranial Nerve Palsies

Cerebrovascular Diseases, 2002
There is a significant number of individual patients with cranial nerve palsies as the sole manifestation of MRI- and, less frequently, CT-documented small brainstem infarctions or hemorrhages. The 3rd and 6th nerves are most commonly involved and, less frequently, the 4th, 5th, 7th, and 8th nerves.

Multiple cranial nerve enlargement in Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease

Journal of Neurology, Neurosurgery & Psychiatry, 2020
Hypertrophy of peripheral nerves are commonly reported in patients with demyelinating forms of Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (CMT).1 Herein, an under-recognised association with hypertrophy of multiple cranial nerves in a patient with CMT is described. A 39-year-old otherwise healthy man presented with a 2-month history of tension-type headaches without

Multiple cranial nerve enhancement in early infantile Krabbe’s disease

Neurology, 2000
Krabbe’s disease or globoid-cell leukodystrophy is an autosomal recessive disorder caused by a mutation of the galactocerebroside beta-galactosidase gene located at chromosome 14q31.1 The reduction of enzymatic activity affects the catabolism of galactosylceramide to ceramide and galactose.1 This disorder is characterized by an abnormal breakdown and ...
