Neuroanatomy - Cranial Nerve V - Drawing the Trigeminal Nerve Pathways

[@DeniseBabbit]

This is the best explanation I have seen on the Trigeminal Nerve. I have Trigeminal Neuralgia, and appreciate the work you've gone through to explain the nerves involved. Now I have names to put with my symptoms in explaining my pain to my team of doctors.

[@dereknash4896]

I am a first year chiropractic student and studying for a neuroanatomy test. This video has helped me out so much with the CNS portion of the trigeminal nerve. I was having trouble visualizing the 4 nuclei and you cleared it up and then some. Really liked how you throw in practical/clinical knowledge into the video.

[@Mosiah1986]

You're the man! You took 3 medical school lectures into one! Plus it made a lot more sense, so thank you.

[@HamCubes]

Your gold-colored (power) shirt & purple (justice) tie along with the green (faith) ink make it look like you're celebrating Mardi Gras! Prenons du bon temps! Thanks for this video! Best explanation and illustration I've seen.

[@rachimbaskin6559]

So clear - Thank you! - that even I, a massage therapist with only the rudes of A&P, grasp each subsection as you go. It's long only because nature crafted this very branchy river. You're our tour guide.

[@MrAndreaCaso]

That is simply fantastic. Following these lectures with an anatomy book is the best you can ask for! Shame that online I couldn't find these wonderful diagrams you drew. (I could draw them but a diagram with straight lines would be probably neater). Thank you for the lesson!

[@JKwiatkowski94]

Really incredible tutorial. I greatly appreciate the attention to detail, as this video has truly helped me understand how CN V functions. Thanks!

[@nonamesyoutube2610]

this is extraordinary, well done doctor

[@BradRoepke]

Please make more videos (covering anything and everything). You are a saint!

[@elpearso1]

Once again, great video. Thanks for explaining the trigeminal nerve so well!

[@daniellemerry-sperry4129]

Definitely something to watch in medical school! Great job!

[@failatolusholaagbogidi3723]

You are simply fantastic. Thank you so much.

[@blasefemme]

i'm an optometry student studying for boards. this is a GREAT review. thank you!

[@wanderlustwasted]

Wow, your videos are the best! I am learning so much. Thank you for taking the time to make this awesome video!

[@afafmohammed4406]

شكرا جزيلا

[@priscillaortiz3012]

This video saved me during head and neck unit of anatomy. Thank you so much! Felt that I really understood CN V in depth. :)

[@modernmedicine2562]

is there such thing as a spheno-palatine nerve? there some some nasal branches (naso-palatine etc) but they all come from the pterygopalatine ganglion, not from the infraorbital n.

[@nabilh9485]

Needed to review this for my neuroanatomy class, helped loads thank you very much nice upload!

[@barbara9473]

incredible lecture ,easy to understand .. Thank you so much

[@spencergardner5923]

Hi Dr. Ward, Could you speak more on the projections of the mesencephalic nucleus? My understanding is that it does not project to the Thalamus (like you've stated in your video) but mainly projects to the Trigeminal motor nucleus and the Supratrigeminal nucleus of the reticular formation to generate a chewing rhythm.

[@Howell_Jolly]

Thank you very much for a such excellent explanation. Can you help me with the question? So, the conscious proprioception of the jaw has only 2 neurons (the 1st nucleus - in the mesencephalic trigeminal nucleus, the 2nd nucleus - in the VPM of contralateral thalamus), right? Because the dorsal column-medial lemniscal system has 3 neurons (dorsal spinal ganglion, nuclei gracilis/cuneatus, and contralateral thalamic VPL).

[@zeeninja6513]

May god bless you!

[@Emad.A.E]

At 20:57 I think what passes through the Sphenopalatine foramen is the Superior Posterior Nasal Branch.

[@braedend7446]

legendary video. Complex but you helped make it as simple as you could considering! Thanks a lot! Also, I agree with some of the comments below that the spingopalatine nerve doesn't appear to exist? I was following along in my Netter's textbook as you went through the lecture and I don't see it anywhere.

[@nelsonutella]

I could not find sphenopalatine nerve as well. I believe it's the naso-palatine nerve? Please correct me if I get it wrong!

[@amir1234561]

Great video!!

[@heathermackay93]

Thanks so much for this video! very very helpful

[@m.g.358]

Is this also one of the explanation for chronic pain after a postraumatich cervical syndrome, kown as 'whiplash associated disorder' (WAD)??

[@529529cpm]

Thank you so much for the video!

[@Emad.A.E]

Good day sir. At 08:08, are u sure that it is the Zygomaticotemporal nerve or the Zygomatic branch of the Maxillary nerve?

[@eldo1995]

thank you for this video!it was really helpful!But i have 2 questions...I read somewhere that some fibers from the chief sensory nucleus also follow the dorsal trigeminal thalamic tract to the ipsilateral VPM of the thalamus...? And the other question is about the mescengephalic nucleus of V.Except of the reflex that it participates in, what kind of tract do the fibers from this nucleus follow?Are they part of trigerminalthalamic tract or trigerminal lemniscus? If anyone knows to answer please tell me!Thank you!

[@drtz4890]

This is great, thank you. One question - are you sure there is a sphenopalatine nerve? There is such artery that goes through SP foramen, but I couldn't find such nerve in the literature (except 2 small sphenopalatine nerveS, connecting V2 to PP ganglion).

[@munimed]

I'm here in july 2019 and i must say thank you so much you're amazing

[@divyadayanand9949]

thank you so much........it was so easy to understand

[@edddonoghue978]

Very helpful thank you!

[@bigdog4574]

Just an FYI... All 3 CN V have branches to the meninges. Hence headaches due to inflammations, hemorrhages, and "Referred" pain.

[@goodman5836]

thanks very much for this

[@gueverrahustle]

*Sighs* Now It Makes A Lot More Sense...Thanks!

[@anabellei]

great video , on the maxillary n he forgot the pharyngeal br. going to nasopharynx and pharyngeal glands

[@yasira5595]

wow ! amazing

[@radugrovu8389]

you my good sir are amazing

[@hollyrogers8793]

Thank you!!!

[@muhammadjunaidali9449]

awesome

[@TheVinLog]

Very good!

[@aniketarora27]

I wish I could meet you so I could shake your hand

[@viktorosvald]

Ok - detailed but reflective!

[@clabriela]

Great video!! Thank you so much!! Can you help me solve this question I read on an exam practice: "What happens if the Trigeminal is cut bellow the Medulla" In my opinion the answer would be: nothing happens!! Lol If it was bellow the pons, would be: Loss of pain and temperature sensitivity

[@ClinicalAnatomyExplained]

I completely agree with your answer but I think that the question is deliberately confusing. The trigeminal NERVE cannot be cut below the medulla and the spinal trigeminal GANGLION only extends to around C1, at which point it melds with the substantia gelatinosa of the dorsal horn, which contains cell bodies that sense pain and temp from the cervical region. Good luck!

[@clabriela]

Thank you for taking the time to answer my question! I took my exam on Saturday... I have my fingers crossed!! =)

[@Tunir007]

so....how did it go? after 2 years lol

[@clabriela]

+Tunir007 I'm currently at the PPID program at UCLA ☺️

[@Tunir007]

nice

[@sallygoyrim1187]

i love you

[@saraa.9862]
