The present study measured the position of the greater palatine foramen relative to adjacent anatomical landmarks in Brazilian skulls. The perpendicular distance of the greater palatine foramen to the midline maxillary suture in Brazilian... more
GOALS: To give an overview on the theoretical and practical applications of chemosensory event-related potentials. METHODS: Chemosensory event-related potentials (ERPs) may be elicited by brief and precisely defined odorous stimuli. Based... more
The facial nerve (CN VII) nerve follows a torturous and complex path from its emergence at the pontomedullary junction to its various destinations. It exhibits a highly variable and complicated branching pattern and forms communications... more
The percutaneous Hartel transoval route goes through an inverted pyramid, with an inferior summit and a superior base that includes three compartments. The danger of the inferior compartment is the parotid duct. The middle compartment... more
Background A review of Dr. Harvey Cushing’s surgical cases at the Johns Hopkins Hospital provided insight into his early work on trigeminal neuralgia (TN). There was perhaps no other affliction that captured his attention in the way that... more
Following on from ecological theories of perception, such as the one proposed by [Gibson, J. J. (1966). The senses considered as perceptual systems. Boston: Houghton Mifflin] this paper reviews the literature on the multisensory... more
Migraine and tension-type headaches have always plagued mankind. In spite of all the research dollars spent trying to determine the etiologies of these headaches, the neurology community still has not established a known cause of migraine... more
Nervio mixto que emerge sobre la cara anterior de la protuberancia como una raíz sensitiva grande y una raíz motora más pequeña. Su ganglio sensitivo (el ganglio semilunar, trigeminal o ganglio de Gasser) está situado en una depresión... more

Patients presenting with facial pain often have ineffective pain relief with medical therapy. Cases refractory to medical management are frequently treated with surgical or minimally invasive procedures with variable success rates. We... more
This study reports a review of the literature on the structural anatomy of the Vth, VIIth, VIIIth, IXth, and Xth cranial nerves, known to harbor dysfunction syndromes in humans. Because these dysfunctions are hypothesized to be caused by... more
Smell tests for clinical use have been developed in different countries, but no single test has gained general acceptance. The objectives of the study were to evaluate the smell outcomes in a Spanish population. A prospective study on... more
The trigeminal nerve responds to a variety of nociceptive stimuli, including many chemicals that activate the olfactory system at lower concentrations. However, the mechanisms by which specific odorants activate the trigeminal nerve are... more
Wobbly hedgehog syndrome (WHS) is a leading cause of neurologic disease in African pygmy hedgehogs (APHs; Atelerix albiventris). This study describes the signalment, clinical signs, gross, microscopic, and ultrastructural lesions of WHS... more
Trigeminal neuralgia is a common cause of facial pain. It has a significant impact on the quality of life and the socioeconomic functioning of the patient. The aim of this review is to provide recommendations for medical management of... more
