Vagus nerve

Tapia’s syndrome is a rare complication of airway manipulation under general anesthesia. Injuries to the vagus nerve (X) and hypoglossal nerve (XII) during transoral intubation are the primary cause of the disease.

This study aimed to evaluate effects of electric vagal nerve stimulation on early postoperation cognitive dysfunction in aged rats. Methods: A total of 33 male Sprague Dawley rats were selected and assigned randomly to three groups, control group (C, n = 10), splenectomy group (S, n = 10) and splenectomy+vagal nerve stimulation group (SV, n = 13).

Trigeminal-cardiac reflex (TCR) is a brainstem vagus reflex that occurs when any center or peripheral branch of the trigeminal nerve was stimulated or operated on. The typical clinical manifestation is sudden bradycardia with or without blood pressure decline.

The authors decided to describe in detail the relationship between the clinical disability of locomotor system and functional dysphagia. They provided detailed anatomic and functional characteristics of the esophagus including the extrinsic and intrinsic innervations. Moreover, they had concentrated on the reflex part of swallowing involving both the afferent and efferent pathways. The afferent signals apparent during the swallowing reflex are directed from sensitive fibers of the trigeminal nerve, n. glossopharyngeus and n. vagus....

Most evidence suggests that the major efferent limb of the inflammatory reflex is carried in: A. The sympathetic chain B. The phrenic nerve C. The vagus nerve D. Postganglionic sympathetics arising in the stellate ganglia E. The long thoracic nerve Correct Answer: The correct answer is C. Evidence suggests that information leaving the central nervous system regarding regulation of inflammation is carried mainly in the vagus nerve. The sympathetic chain is the origin of postganglionic fibers for sympathetic innervation of visceral organs.

Theafferent limb includes receptors within the sensory distribution of the trigeminal, glossopharyngeal, superior laryngeal, and vagus nerves. The efferent limb includes the recurrent laryngeal nerve and the spinal nerves. The cough starts with a deep inspiration followed by glottic closure, relaxation of the diaphragm, and muscle contraction against a closed glottis. The resulting markedly positive intrathoracic pressure causes narrowing of the trachea.

Pancoast tumor, or superior sulcus tumor, is a tumor of the pulmonary apex i.e. a type of lung cancer defined primarily by its location situated at the top end of either the right or left lung. The growing tumor can cause compression of a brachiocephalic vein, subclavian artery, phrenic nerve, recurrent laryngeal nerve, vagus nerve, or, characteristically, compression of a sympathetic ganglion resulting in a range of symptoms known as Horner's syndrome.

Glossopharyngeal Neuralgia Syncope due to glossopharyngeal neuralgia (Chap. 371) is preceded by pain in the oropharynx, tonsillar fossa, or tongue. Loss of consciousness is usually associated with asystole rather than vasodilatation. The mechanism is thought to involve activation of afferent impulses in the glossopharyngeal nerve that terminate in the nucleus solitarius of the medulla and, via collaterals, activate the dorsal motor nucleus of the vagus nerve.
