Descriptor enfermedades del nervio glosofaríngeo
Entry term(s) enfermedades del IX nervio craneal
enfermedades del IX par craneal
enfermedades del noveno nervio craneal
Scope note: Enfermedades del noveno par craneal (glosofaríngeo) o de su núcleo en el bulbo raquídeo. El nervio puede lesionarse por enfermedades que afectan al tronco cerebral inferior, suelo de la fosa posterior, agujero yugular o tracto extracraneal del nervio. Las manifestaciones clínicas comprenden pérdida de la sensibilidad en la faringe, disminución de la salivación y síncope. La neuralgia glosofaríngea hace referencia a una afección que se presenta con dolor agudo recurrente unilateral en la lengua, ángulo de la mandíbula, meato auditivo externo y garganta, y puede asociarse con un SÍNCOPE. Los episodios pueden desencadenarse por tos, estornudos, deglución, o por la aplicación de presión en el trago de la oreja. (Adams et al., Principles of Neurology, 6th ed, p1390)

Scope note: Diseases of the ninth cranial (glossopharyngeal) nerve or its nuclei in the medulla. The nerve may be injured by diseases affecting the lower brain stem, floor of the posterior fossa, jugular foramen, or the nerve's extracranial course. Clinical manifestations include loss of sensation from the pharynx, decreased salivation, and syncope. Glossopharyngeal neuralgia refers to a condition that features recurrent unilateral sharp pain in the tongue, angle of the jaw, external auditory meatus and throat that may be associated with SYNCOPE. Episodes may be triggered by cough, sneeze, swallowing, or pressure on the tragus of the ear. (Adams et al., Principles of Neurology, 6th ed, p1390)
