| motor nucleus of trigeminal nerve | <anatomy, nerve> A group of motor neurons innervating the muscles of mastication (masseter, temporalis, internal and external pterygoid muscles) and the musculi tensor tympani and tensor veli palatini. The nucleus lies in the upper pontine tegmentum medial to the main sensory nucleus of the trigeminus. Synonym: nucleus motorius nervi trigemini, masticatory nucleus, motor nucleus of trigeminus, nucleus masticatorius. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| motor root of trigeminal nerve | <anatomy, nerve> The smaller root of the trigeminal nerve, composed of fibres originating from the trigeminal motor nucleus and emerging from the pons medial to the much larger sensory root, to join the mandibular nerve; it carries motor and proprioceptive fibres to the muscles derived from the first bronchial (mandibular) arch, including the four muscles of mastication, plus the mylohyoid, anterior belly of the digastric, and the tensores tympani and veli palati. Synonym: radix motoria nervi trigemini, masticator nerve, portio minor nervi trigemini. (05 Mar 2000) |
| hallucinatory neuralgia | An impression of local pain persisting after an attack of neuralgia has ceased. (05 Mar 2000) |
| principal sensory nucleus of trigeminal nerve | <anatomy, nerve> The term commonly used to designate the nucleus pontis nervi trigeminalis; located in pons lateral to the motor trigeminal nucleus; receives primary sensory (touch and pressure) input via the trigeminal nerve, projects to ventral posteromedial nucleus of thalamus. Synonym: nucleus sensorius principalis nervi trigemini, nucleus sensorius superior nervi trigemini, principal sensory nucleus of the trigeminus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sciatic neuralgia | A syndrome characterised by pain radiating from the back into the buttock and into the lower extremity along its posterior or lateral aspect and most commonly caused by prolapse of the intervertebral disk, the term is also used to refer to pain anywhere along the course of the sciatic nerve. (18 Nov 1997) |
| sensory root of trigeminal nerve | <anatomy, nerve> The large sensory root of the trigeminal (or fifth cranial) nerve, extending from the semilunar ganglion into the pons through the middle cerebellar peduncle or brachium pontis, immediately lateral to the small motor root. Synonym: radix sensoria nervi trigemini, portio major nervi trigemini. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Hunt's neuralgia | A severe paroxysmal lancinating pain deep in the ear, on the anterior wall of the external meatus, and on a small area just in front of the pinna. Synonym: geniculate otalgia, Hunt's neuralgia, neuralgia facialis vera. (05 Mar 2000) |
| hysterical spinal neuralgia | Simulating Pott's disease, following a trauma. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Sluder's neuralgia | Neuralgia of the lower half of the face, with pain referred to the root of the nose, upper teeth, eyes, ears, mastoid, and occiput, in association with nasal congestion and rhinorrhoea occurring in infection of the nasal sinuses, and produced by lesions of the sphenopalatine ganglion; ocular hyperaemia and excessive lacrimation may occur. Synonym: Sluder's neuralgia. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sphenopalatine neuralgia | Neuralgia of the lower half of the face, with pain referred to the root of the nose, upper teeth, eyes, ears, mastoid, and occiput, in association with nasal congestion and rhinorrhoea occurring in infection of the nasal sinuses, and produced by lesions of the sphenopalatine ganglion; ocular hyperaemia and excessive lacrimation may occur. Synonym: Sluder's neuralgia. (05 Mar 2000) |
| spinal tract of trigeminal nerve | <anatomy, nerve> A compact fibre bundle, comma-shaped on transverse section, composed of primary sensory fibres of the portio major of the trigeminal nerve, descending from the level of the entrance of the trigeminus in the upper pons down through the dorsolateral region of the rhombencephalic tegmentum along the lateral side of the descending or spinal nucleus of the trigeminus, emerging on the dorsolateral surface of the lower medulla oblongata as the tuberculum cinereum, and continuing as far as the second cervical segment of the spinal cord. Its fibres are distributed to the descending or spinal nucleus of the trigeminus. Synonym: tractus spinalis nervi trigemini, descending tract of trigeminal nerve, tractus descendens nervi trigemini. (05 Mar 2000) |
| spinal trigeminal nucleus | The long sensory nucleus extending from the caudal border of the pontine sensory nucleus of the trigeminus down through the lateral region of the rhombencephalon into the upper three segments of the spinal cord's dorsal horn; it receives the fibres of the sensory root of the trigeminal nerve which descend along its lateral border as the spinal tract of trigeminal nerve. Synonym: nucleus tractus spinalis nervi trigemini, descending nucleus of the trigeminus, spinal nucleus of the trigeminus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| neuralgia | <symptom> Paroxysmal pain which extends along the course of one or more nerves. Many varieties of neuralgia are distinguished according to the part affected or to the cause, as brachial, facial, occipital, supraorbital, etc. Or anaemic, diabetic, gouty, malarial, syphilitic, etc. (18 Nov 1997) |
| neuralgia facialis vera | A severe paroxysmal lancinating pain deep in the ear, on the anterior wall of the external meatus, and on a small area just in front of the pinna. Synonym: geniculate otalgia, Hunt's neuralgia, neuralgia facialis vera. (05 Mar 2000) |
| stump neuralgia | Pain experienced as coming from an absent part, caused by irritation of neuromas in the scarred tissue of an amputation stump. (05 Mar 2000) |
