Hypoglossal Nerve (Cranial Nerve XII) Stimulation
Otolaryngologic Clinics of North America, 2020Hypoglossal nerve stimulation is a novel strategy for the treatment of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). Its anatomy allows for easy surgical access, and its function as a motor nerve allows for tolerable neurostimulation. It has shown success as a therapy for the treatment of OSA with a greater than 80% success rate.

Intracranial Schwannoma of the Hypoglossal Nerve
Archives of Neurology, 1984Two patients had a solitary intracranial schwannoma of the hypoglossal nerve. Such schwannomas are rare, and these two cases bring the total number of reported cases to 16. Hemiatrophy of the tongue is always present but is rarely reported by patients. Diagnosis can be facilitated by high-resolution computed tomographic scanning of the posterior fossa ...

PARAPHARYNGEAL NEURILEMMOMA OF THE HYPOGLOSSAL NERVE
The Laryngoscope, 1976Although neurilemmomas are uncommon cervical neoplasms, they account for a significant percentage of parapharyngeal space tumors. These neoplasms may originate from any nerve traversing this space, but the vast majority arise from the vagus nerve and sympathetic chain.

ObjectiveOSA is a common cause of sleep morbidity. A novel treatment for obstruction at the level of the tongue is a unilateral hypoglossal nerve implant system (Inspire, Inspire Medical, Minneapolis, Minnesota). Study objectives were to assess sleep outcomes in a multicenter academic setting feasibility trial.MethodNerve stimulation effect on AHI and ...

Dysfunction of the hypoglossal nerve (nervus hypoglossus) occurs usually as part of a larger symptom complex, only rarely being the sole symptom of a neurologic disorder. Peripheral etiology must also be kept in mind, especially in patients with malignant primary disease.
