Cranial Nerve Diseases (Cranial Nerve Disorders)

Disorders of one or more of the twelve cranial nerves. With the exception of the optic and olfactory nerves, this includes disorders of the brain stem nuclei from which the cranial nerves originate or terminate.

10/01/2021 - "Durable recovery of most cranial neuropathies in advanced T4 NPC was observed in the era of modern IMRT and effective systemic chemotherapy. "
03/15/2021 - "In the middle of her fourth cycle of chemotherapy, she displayed symptoms of a left-sided multi-cranial nerve palsy. "
01/01/2021 - "Increasing survival time (odds ratio [OR], 1.17; 95% CI, 1.06-1.30) and increasing total radiation dose (OR, 1.16; 95% CI, 1.00-1.34), Black race (OR, 3.90; 95% CI, 1.02-14.89), Hispanic ethnicity (OR, 3.74; 95% CI, 1.50-9.35), current cigarette smoking at the time of survey (OR, 3.98; 95% CI, 1.56-10.18), treatment with induction and concurrent chemotherapy (OR, 1.94; 95% CI, 1.06-3.57), and late (OR, 7.11; 95% CI, 3.08-16.41) and baseline lower cranial neuropathy (OR, 8.70; 95% CI, 3.01-25.13) were risk factors associated with moderate to severe voice and speech symptoms. "
01/01/2018 - "Before chemotherapy, he was started on radiation therapy to the brain, meninges, and base of skull with the intent of improving cranial nerve palsies and preventing further neurological sequelae since the cranial nerve palsies were dense and there was concern that intrathecal chemotherapy would have less penetration than radiation. "
03/01/2001 - "Multivariate analysis was performed to evaluate age, T stage, N stage, radiotherapy dose, histology, chemotherapy bone of skull erosions or cranial nerve palsies and base of skull involvement as prognostic factors of locoregional control and overall survival. "
