Glossopharyngeal Nerve Block

2012
The glossopharyngeal nerve (cranial nerve IX) is an important consideration as a pain generator or modulator in cases of recalcitrant pain of the face and neck. Although uncommon as an etiology of head and neck pain (0.57–1.3 % of cases of facial pain), impingement or injury to the glossopharyngeal nerve can lead to glossopharyngeal neuralgia, a ...

Glossopharyngeal Nerve Entrapment

2016
Glossopharyngeal nerve (GN) is the ninth cranial nerve, with a short course from the jugular foramen to the ear and throat. It carries sensory, motor, and autonomic fibers. Glossopharyngeal neuralgia (GPN) is a rare disorder, with patients usually complaining about short paroxysms of pain at the ear, tonsils, throat, and jaw.

Imaging of the glossopharyngeal, vagus, and accessory nerves

Seminars in Ultrasound, CT and MRI, 2002
The origination and course of the glossopharyngeal, vagus and accessory cranial nerves explains their function and localizes pathology. Abnormalities of these lower cranial nerves may be intrinsic or extrinsic and is due to a multiplicity of disease processes.

Intraoral nerve block for glossopharyngeal neuralgia

Archives of Oto-Rhino-Laryngology, 1977
Glossopharyngeal neuralgia was treated by a new method of intraoral block. The procedure consists of block for the tonsillar branch and block of the lingual branch by the injection of 5% Phenol in Glycerin. This can be applied for neuralgia with a trigger zone around the tonsil. The result is quite satisfactory.

Anatomy of the Glossopharyngeal Nerve

2015
The glossopharyngeal nerve is a lower cranial nerve arising in the posterior cranial fossa. Although this nerve has multiple branches and functional components, it is often overlooked clinically. This ninth cranial nerve has a close relation to the vagus nerve both structurally and functionally.

The glossopharyngeal, vagus and spinal accessory nerves

European Journal of Radiology, 2010
The glossopharyngeal, vagus and spinal accessory nerves are closely related anatomically, and to a certain extent, functionally. We present an overview of their anatomy, highlighting the important clinical and imaging implications. The main pathologic lesions arising from these nerves are also discussed and the imaging features reviewed.

Lingual distribution of the human glossopharyngeal nerve

Acta Oto-Laryngologica, 2009
Nineteenth century anatomical descriptions of the anterior distribution of cranial nerve (CN) IX on the dorsal tongue are contrary to current concepts. By employing Sihler's stain, we demonstrated that, in fact, CN IX projects more anteriorly than the posterior third of the tongue.

Glossopharyngeal Nerve

2014
The ninth cranial nerve is the glossopharyngeal nerve. On emerging from the brainstem it passes through the cranial cavity to exit at the jugular foramen. It is primarily a sensory nerve but also contains motor and parasympathetic fibers. It supplies the posterior one-third of the tongue for taste and sensation, stylopharyngeus for its motor ...

Glossopharyngeal Nerve Block

2014
Glossopharyngeal nerve block has an important diagnostic role in the evaluation of head and orofacial pain. Glossopharyngeal nerve block is beneficial in alleviating pain due to glossopharyngeal neuralgia and cancer.
