EXPERIMETAL MICRONEUROSURGERY OF THE CENTRAL AND PERIPHERAL NERVOUS SYSTEM IN THE STUDY OF THE NEURONAL AND GLIAL TROPHISM AND PLASTICITY

open access: yesActa Cirúrgica Brasileira, 1998
Trauma and neurodegenerative diseases commit the nervous system. After an axotomy or nerve injury in the peripheral nervous system the regeneration of the nerve fibers and reinervation of the target are seen.

Side-to-end hypoglossal-facial anastomosis via transposition of the intratemporal facial nerve

open access: yes, 2009
The technique of facial nerve repair with side-to-end hypoglossal-facial anastomosis is presented and evaluated in five patients, who were operated on because of facial nerve paralysis after acoustic neuroma surgery or had cranial base trauma.

Using the Post-Descendens Hypoglossal Nerve in Hypoglossal-Facial Anastomosis: An Anatomic and Histologic Feasibility Study.

open access: yes, 2020
BACKGROUND: Hypoglossal-facial anastomosis (HFA) is a popular facial reanimation technique. Mobilizing the intratemporal segment of the facial nerve and using the post-descendens hypoglossal nerve (ie, the segment distal to the take-off of descendens ...

Isolated Hypoglossal Nerve Palsy due to Infected Impacted Tooth [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Case of isolated hypoglossal nerve palsy is an extremely rare condition. There are several causes that can be attributed to it. We present a case where a patient presented herself with swelling on the right side of her cheek extending to the floor of the

Swallowing‐Related Quality of Life After Carotid Body Tumor Resection: A Longitudinal Trajectory Analysis

open access: yesHead &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives To identify longitudinal swallowing‐related QoL trajectories after carotid body tumor (CBT) resection and explore associated characteristics. Methods A prospective study assessed swallowing‐related QoL using the MD Anderson Dysphagia Inventory at nine timepoints from preoperation to 12 months postdischarge.

Trans‐Cervical Ultrasound Imaging of the Adult Palatine Tonsils

open access: yesJournal of Medical Radiation Sciences, EarlyView.
Ultrasound imaging of the adult palatine tonsils using a trans‐cervical approach can be used to assess the tonsillar region for intratonsillar and peritonsillar abscesses. An understanding of the sonographic anatomy, technique and tonsillar pathology is required to perform and interpret imaging and inform patient management.

Treatment of Residual Palatal Collapse in Hypoglossal Nerve Stimulation Using a Palatal Device. [PDF]

open access: yes
Hypoglossal nerve stimulation (HNS) has increasingly become an alternative therapy for obstructive sleep apnea patients with CPAP intolerance. Stimulation of the hypoglossal nerve during sleep enhances airway patency and alleviates collapse.

Hypoglossal nerve conduction findings in obstructive sleep apnea [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Denervation of oropharyngeal muscles in obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) has been suggested by needle electromyography (EMG) and muscle biopsy, but little is known about oropharyngeal nerve conduction abnormalities in OSA.

The Subhyoid Approach for Base of Tongue Tumors: Description of A Novel Surgical Technique

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
The sub‐hyoid approach is a novel open surgical technique for selected deeply infiltrative base of tongue tumors, providing direct access and allowing full‐thickness resection while preserving the tongue neurovascular structures. Thyro‐hyoido‐pexy restores hyo‐laryngeal suspension without flap reconstruction, with the aim of preserving swallowing ...
