The glossopharyngeal, vagus and spinal accessory nerves
European Journal of Radiology, 2010The 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, 2009Nineteenth 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.

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 ...

Gustatory responsiveness of fibers in the hamster glossopharyngeal nerve
Journal of Neurophysiology, 19881. Mammalian taste receptors are distributed within separate subpopulations, innervated by branches of cranial nerves VII, IX, and X. Most gustatory electrophysiology has focused on input from the fungiform papillae on the anterior portion of the tongue, carried by the chorda tympani branch of the VIIth nerve.

A fascial key for exposing the glossopharyngeal nerve
The Irish Journal of Medical Science, 1957Glossopharyngeal exposure is simplified by dividing Charpy’s band and using it to retract the parotid. Displacement forward of the sub-mandibular gland then gives room to define the Bouquet of Riplan and locate the nerve.

Sustained hypertension after section of the glossopharyngeal nerve
The American Journal of Medicine, 1977A case of sustained hypertension produced by unilateral section of the glossopharyngeal nerve is reported. Special tests revealed baroreceptor dysfunction. The hypertension was responsive to propranolol therapy. Review of the literature revealed no other documented cases of sustained hypertension although transient hypertension is common.

Syncope: a clue to malignant compression of the glossopharyngeal nerve
Medical Journal of Australia, 1986Three patients who were admitted to hospital because of syncope were found to have malignant head and neck tumours. A patient who presented with malignant external otitis with syncope and postural hypotension is also described. It is postulated that the syncope and postural hypotension result from compressive irritation of the glossopharyngeal nerve ...
