The document provides information about the trigeminal nerve (CN V), which is the largest of the cranial nerves. It has both sensory and motor components. The trigeminal nerve has three main divisions - the ophthalmic, maxillary, and mandibular nerves. It innervates most of the face and provides sensory innervation to the teeth and oral cavity. The trigeminal nerve nuclei are located in the pons and midbrain. The trigeminal ganglion contains the cell bodies of pseudounipolar neurons. The branches and distribution of the three divisions of the trigeminal nerve are described in detail.
The maxillary nerve is a branch of the trigeminal nerve that arises from the trigeminal ganglia and provides sensory innervation to parts of the face, nasal cavity, and palate. It passes through the foramen rotundum into the pterygopalatine fossa where it gives off branches including the nasopalatine nerve that supplies the hard palate and nasal septum, and the greater and lesser palatine nerves that innervate the palate. The infraorbital nerve is a terminal branch that emerges on the face through the infraorbital foramen and divides further to innervate the lower eyelid, nose, upper lip, and gums.
The trigeminal nerve is the largest of the cranial nerves. It has both sensory and motor functions. It has three main divisions: the ophthalmic, maxillary, and mandibular nerves. The ophthalmic nerve innervates the eye and forehead. The maxillary nerve supplies sensation to the cheek, upper teeth, and nose. The mandibular nerve provides motor input to the muscles of mastication and sensation to the lower face, teeth, and chin.

Cell Therapy Expansion and Challenges in Autoimmune DiseaseHealth Advances
There is increasing confidence that cell therapies will soon play a role in the treatment of autoimmune disorders, but the extent of this impact remains to be seen. Early readouts on autologous CAR-Ts in lupus are encouraging, but manufacturing and cost limitations are likely to restrict access to highly refractory patients. Allogeneic CAR-Ts have the potential to broaden access to earlier lines of treatment due to their inherent cost benefits, however they will need to demonstrate comparable or improved efficacy to established modalities.
In addition to infrastructure and capacity constraints, CAR-Ts face a very different risk-benefit dynamic in autoimmune compared to oncology, highlighting the need for tolerable therapies with low adverse event risk. CAR-NK and Treg-based therapies are also being developed in certain autoimmune disorders and may demonstrate favorable safety profiles. Several novel non-cell therapies such as bispecific antibodies, nanobodies, and RNAi drugs, may also offer future alternative competitive solutions with variable value propositions.
Widespread adoption of cell therapies will not only require strong efficacy and safety data, but also adapted pricing and access strategies. At oncology-based price points, CAR-Ts are unlikely to achieve broad market access in autoimmune disorders, with eligible patient populations that are potentially orders of magnitude greater than the number of currently addressable cancer patients. Developers have made strides towards reducing cell therapy COGS while improving manufacturing efficiency, but payors will inevitably restrict access until more sustainable pricing is achieved.
Despite these headwinds, industry leaders and investors remain confident that cell therapies are poised to address significant unmet need in patients suffering from autoimmune disorders. However, the extent of this impact on the treatment landscape remains to be seen, as the industry rapidly approaches an inflection point.

ABDOMINAL TRAUMA in pediatrics part one.drhasanrajab
Abdominal trauma in pediatrics refers to injuries or damage to the abdominal organs in children. It can occur due to various causes such as falls, motor vehicle accidents, sports-related injuries, and physical abuse. Children are more vulnerable to abdominal trauma due to their unique anatomical and physiological characteristics. Signs and symptoms include abdominal pain, tenderness, distension, vomiting, and signs of shock. Diagnosis involves physical examination, imaging studies, and laboratory tests. Management depends on the severity and may involve conservative treatment or surgical intervention. Prevention is crucial in reducing the incidence of abdominal trauma in children.

4. The word ‘Trigemina’ meaning ‘Threefold’ gives the Vth Cranial
Nerve its name – The Trigeminal or Trifacial Nerve as it forms 3
divisions 1) The Opthalmic(sensory)
2) The Maxillary(sensory) &
3) The Mandibular nerve(Sensory,motor).
It is the Largest of all the Cranial Nerves, & of mixed variety
having a large sensory root & a small motor root.
As major general sensory nerves of face, it transmits afferent
impulses from Touch, Temperature & Pain receptors.
5. Cell bodies of sensory neurons
of all three divisions are located
in the large Trigeminal (or
Semilunar or Gasserian or
Gasser's) Ganglion.
The mandibular division also
contains motor fibers that
innervate the muscles of
mastication.
Trigeminal Ganglion
6. In 1765, Anton Balthasar Raymund Hirsch, described the Gasserian
ganglion, naming it in honor of his professor “Gasser’ a Professor of
Anatomy at the University of Vienna. 1
It is the sensory ganglion of the Vth cranial nerve.
The ganglion is Flat, Crescentric Or Semilunar in shape, measuring
1 x 2 cms with its convexity directed anterolaterally.
Thethreedivisionsofthetrigeminalnerveemergefromthisconvexity.
7. Situation & Meningeal Relations :
The Ganglion lies at a depth of 4.5 – 5 cms from the lateral aspect of
head, at the posterior extremity of the Zygomatic arch.
It occupies a special space of dura mater, called the Trigeminal
(or Meckel’s) Cave covering the trigeminal impression on the
anterior surface of the petrous temporal bone near its apex.
Clinical Significance :
After recovery from a primary herpes infection, the virus is not
cleared from the body, but rather lies dormant in a non-replicating
state within the trigeminal ganglion. Thus, herpes zoster may follow
from Chickenpox.

13. Motor root:
The small motor root (portio minor) arises separately from the sensory root,
originating in the motor nucleus located in the upper pons and medulla oblongata.
Its fibers, forming a small nerve root travels anteriorly along with, but entirely
separate from, the larger sensory root to the region of trigeminal ganglion. Here the
nerve passes latero-inferior direction under the ganglion towards the foramen
Ovale, through which it leaves the MIDDLE CRANIAL FOSSA along the
mandibularnerve.Justafterleavingthetheskull,themotorrootuniteswiththe
sensory root of the mandibular division to form a single trunk. It supplies
the following muscles : - Muscles of mastication - Mylohyoid
- Ant belly of the diagastric - Tensor tympani
- Tensor veli palatini
14. BRANCHESOF THETRIGEMINALNERVE
The Trigeminal Nerve forms three divisions :
1) The Opthalmic,
2) The Maxillary &
3) The Mandibular Nerves.
All of the three are chiefly sensory in nature but the mandibular
division also contains motor fibres that innervate the muscles of
mastication.

lateralwallofthecavernoussinus.
In the middle cranial fossa, it gives a branch, Nervus tentorii to
supplytheDura
It also gives off communication branches to the Oculomotor,
Trochlear and Abducent cranial nerves. As the ophthalmic
division passes forward from the cavernous sinus, it divides into
threebranch’s:Lacrimal,FrontalandNasociliaryNerves.

from the nasociliary nerve. It contains sensory fibers, which pass
through the ganglion without synapsing and continue on to the
eyeball by means of the short ciliary nerves.
2. Long ciliary nerves. There are usually two or three long ciliary
nerves branching from the nasociliary nerve. They are distributed to
the iris & cornea.
33. 3. Posterior ethmoid nerve. : It enters the posterior ethmoid canal to be
distributed to the mucous membrane lining the posterior ethmoidal cells
and the sphenoid sinus.
4. Anterior ethmoid nerve : It continues anteriorly along the medial wall
of the orbit. In the upper part of the nasal cavity, the ethmoid nerve
divides into two sets of anterior nasal branches:
a) Internal nasal branches : In turn, divide in the upper anterior part of
the nasal cavity into two divisions :
- Medial or septal branches. - Lateral branches.
b. External nasal branches : At the border between the lower edge of the
nasal bone and the upper edge of the laterai nasal cartilage, the external
nasal branch passes externally.
35. B. Branches arising in the nasal cavity

36. Maxillary nerve (V2)
The maxillary nerve is entirely sensory in function.
Intracranial course :
It originates at the middle of the semilunar ganglion & continues
forward in the lower part of the cavernous sinus.
Extracranial course :
It then passes to the Foramen Rotundum, through which it leaves the
cranial fossa and enters the Pterygopalatine Fossa. it enters the
Inferior Orbital Fissure to pass into the orbital cavity. Here it turns
laterally in a groove on the orbital surface of the maxilla, called the
infraorbital groove.

42. I) Branches given off in the middle cranial fossa :
In the middle cranial fossa a small branch, the middle meningeal
nerve, passes with the middle meningeal artery and its branches to
supply the dura with sensory fibers.
Innervation : It sends a sensory branch to the dura.
II) Branches in the pterygopalatine fossa :
A) Zygomatic nerve
The zygomatic nerve leaves the 2nd division in the pterygopalatine
fossa and passes anteriorly and laterally through the inferior orbital
fissure into the orbit. Here it divides into two parts :
43. 1. Zygomaticofacial nerve -It passes forward on the lateral orbital
foramen. The nerve pierces the orbicularis oculi muscle.
Innervation : Sensory from the skin over the zygomatic bone.
2. Zygomaticotemporal nerve -It leaves the orbit between the great
wing of the sphenoid and the zygomatic bone to enter the temporal
fossa.
Innervation : Sensory from the skin of the side of the forehead and
of the anterior part of the temporal region.
B. Pterygopalatine (sphenopalatine) nerves :
They are two short nerve trunks that unite at the pterygopalatine
ganglion and are then redistributed into several branches.
44. The branches of distribution of the pterygopalatine nerves are divided
into three groups :
1) Orbital branches : Two or three fine filaments enter the orbit by
means of the inferior orbital fissure
Sensory from the periosteum of the or & from the lining of the sphenoid
sinus and posterior ethmoid cells.
2) Nasal branches. In the nasal cavity, it divides into the
i) Posterior superior lateral nasal branches : These branches transmit
sensory impulses from the mucous membrane of the nasal septum
and posterior ethmoid cells.
45. ii) Medial or septal branch :It transmits sensory impulses from the
mucous membrane over the vomer & then descends in the incisal
canal and ramifies in the mucous membrane of the premaxillary
region of the hard palate.
3)Palatine branches : These descends in the pterygopalatine canal,
where the fibers usually divide into three strands :
a) Greater or anterior palatine nerve : This nerve emerges on the hard
palate by passing through the greater palatine foramen and courses in an
anterior direction between the osseous hard palate & mucoperiosteum
It breaks up into numerous branches in its course and finally extends as
far forward as the premaxillary palatine mucosa.
46. It is sensory from the mucous membrane of the major part of the hard
palate and adjacent part of the soft palate.

pharynx and the area behind the auditory tube.
C. Posterior superior alveolar branches :
Two or three branches leave the maxillary division just before it enters
the inferior orbital fissure. They pass downward and continue on the
posterior surface of the maxilla. An internal branch of the posterior
superior alveolar nerve goes along with a branch of the internal maxillary
artery through the posterior superior alveolar canal, which opens on the
posterior surface of the maxilla. In the bone, the nerve passes down the
posterior or posterolateral wall of the maxillary sinus.

It br’s within the mucous membrane of the maxillary sinus to join with
other alveolar nerves in forming the superior dental plexus of nerves.
Innervation : Sensory from the maxillary bicuspids and the
mesiobuccal root of the first molar sensory from the lining of the
maxillary sinus.

55. Mandibular nerve (V3)
The mandibular division of the trigeminal nerve is the largest of the
three divisions. It is formed by the union of the large sensory (afferent)
bundle of fibers and a small motor (efferent) bundle of fibers.
Intracranial Course :
The motor root is located in the middle cranial fossa. It joins the sensory
root after the latter leaves the semilunar ganglion. The two roots pass
side by side in the dura of the middle cranial fossa to the foramen ovale.
Extracranial course :
Leaving the foramen ovale, the two roots unite to form a short single
trunk.
56. Branches :

The larger posterior division is mainly sensory but also carries some
motor components. This division extends downward and medially and
then branches into the auriculotemporal, the lingual, & the inferior
alveolar nerves.
1) Auriculotemporal nerve : The united nerve passes
posteriorly, deep to the external pterygoid muscle, and then between the
sphenomandibular ligament and the neck of the condyle of the mandible
66. Divides into numerous branches : The parotid, Articular, Auricular,
Mental, and
Terminal branches.
Innervation :
a) Skin over the areas supplied by the branches of the facial nerve, that is,
zygomatic, buccal, and mandibular areas.
b) Parotid gland by means of the parotid branch.
c) Temporomandibular articulation.
d) Skin lining the external auditory meatus and from the lateral surface of
the tympanic membrane.
e) Skin and scalp over the upper part of the external ear and the side of the
head up to the vertex of the skull.
67. 2. Lingual nerve :
The lingual nerve is the smaller of the two terminal branches of the
posterior division of the mandibular nerve. At first it passes medially to
the External Pterygoid Muscle and, as it descends, lies between the
INTERNAL PTERYGOID MUSCLE and the ramus of the mandible in the
pterygomandibular space.
69. Innervation :
1.Membrane covering the anterior two thirds of the tongue;
2.Mucous membrane of the floor of the mouth and of the lingual
side of the mandibular gingivae;
3.Submandibular and sublingual glands and their ducts.
70. The lingual nerve conveys special sense of taste from the anterior
two thirds of the tongue. It also contains secretomotor fibers to the
submandibular and sublingual salivary glands and the mucous glands
in the floor of the mouth.
3. Inferior alveolar nerve :
Passes downward on the medial side of the external pterygoid muscle
and the medial side of the mandibular ramus. On the medial side of
the ramus in the pterygomandibular space, it enters the mandibular
foramen.
71. -Within the mandible it descends in the inferior alveolar canal and is
distributed throughout the body of the mandible.
-In the inferior alveolar canal it gives off branches to the mandibular
teeth as apical fibers that enter the apical foramina of the lower teeth to
supply the dental pulps.
-As the inferior alveolar nerve reaches the region of the mental foramen,
it divides into TWO TERMINAL BRANCHES.
-The MENTAL NERVE leaves the body of the mandible through the mental
foramen. The remaining fibers, the INCISIVE BRANCH, continue anteriorly
within the body of the mandible and form a fine incisive plexus that
supplies the cuspid tooth and the incisor teeth.
72. Before the inferior alveolar nerve enters the mandibular foramen it
gives off a branch, the MYLOHYOID branch, which contains sensory
and motor fibers. The mylohyoid nerve continues downward and
forward in the mylohyoid groove.
a. Dental branches - Sensory from all of the lower molar and bicuspid
(mandibular) teeth and their periodontal membranes.
b. Mental nerve - Sensory from the skin of the lower lip and chin
regions and from the mucous membrane lining the lower lip region.
c. Incisive nerve - Sensory from incisors, cuspid teeth, & their
periodontal membranes.
73.
74. Sensory disturbances in the distribution of the trigeminal nerve are
common after facial injuries leading to stretching or compression of nerve
(1) Trigeminal neuralgia may involve one or more of the three divisions of the
trigeminal nerve . It causes attacks of very severe flikring and scalding pain
along thedistribution of the affected nerve. Pain is relieved either by :
(a) Injecting 90% alcohol into the affected division of the nerve
(b) By sectioning the affected nerve, the main sensory root or the spinal tract
of the trigeminal nerve which is situated superficially in the medulla called as
Medullary Tractotomy.
75. 2) Damage to the nasociliary branch can produce loss of the protective
corneal reflex with serious consequences to the eye.
3) Damage to the auriculortemporal nerve in the region of the neck of the
mandibular condyle - Von Frey's Syndrome (facial flushing and sweating
instead of salivatory response at meal times)
T/t : By roll on deperspirant (Drichlor) or alternatively by nerve section.
(4) on the face (port wine strains) map out accurately the areCongenital
cutaneous naevi as supplied by one or more division of 5th c. nerve.
(5) The motor part of the mandibular nerve is tested clinically by asking the
patient to clench hisher teeth and then feeling for the contracting
masseter and temporalis muscles on the two sides.
76. If one Masseter is paralysed, the jaw deviates to the paralysed side, on
opening the mouth by the action of normal lateral Pterygoid of the
Opposite side. The activity of the Pterygoid muscle is tested by asking the
patient to move the chin from side to side.
(7) Lingual nerve lies in contact with the mandible, medial to the third
molar tooth. In extraction of malposed "wisdom tooth" care must be
taken not to injure the lingual nerve.
(8) Post-herpetic neuralgia. This unfortunate sequela occurs most
frequently in elderly patients as a result of scarring of nerve.
77. (9) Trotter's syndrome - Carcinoma of the nasopharynx often
producing trigeminal neuralgia like pain in the mandible, tongue & side
of the head along with the middle ear deafness.
(10) Wallenberg syndrome : Also called the lateral medullary
syndrome a stroke causes loss of pain / temperature sensation from one
side of the face and the other side of the body.
78. A Prosthodontist should be thorough with the course and area
of supply of the trigeminal nerve especially mandibular and
maxilllary division,so in order to tackle any significant problem
related to it.
1. Pressure On Mental Foramen7:-
If bone resorption in mandible has been extreme
The mental foramen may open near or directly at the crest of the residual bony
process
When this happens, the bony margins of the mental foramen usually are dense
and resilient to resorption than the anterior or posterior to foramen
This causes the margins of the mental foramen to extend and have sharp edges
2-3 mm higher than the surrounding bone
Pressure from the denture against the mental nerve exiting the foramen causes
Pain.
Also ,pressure against the sharp bone will cause pain as it is pinched between
the sharp bony margin of the mental foramen
79.
80. Precaution /Treatement:-
1. Alter the denture , so pressure does not exist
2. Trim the bone to relieve Pressure (Rare)
3. Increasing the opening of the mental
foramen downwards towards the inferior
border of the body of the mandible,therefore
this cahnge permits the nerve to exit the
bone at a point lower than the previous
situation.This takes pressure off.
81. 2. Pressure over the incisive papilla:-
lies immediately behind and between the
central incisors,
Lies nearer to the crest of the residual
ridge as resorption progresses. This
papilla houses a foramen named as
incisive foramen, Nasopalatine Nerve
And Vessels pass through the foramen.
Treatement/precaution:-
Denture should be relieved in this area
82. 3. Trigeminal nerve Palsy/Paralysis
Clinical sign and symptoms includes:-
a. Reduced mouth opening on the affected
side.
b.Hyeractivity of muscle on the affected side.
c.Loss of corneal reflex on the affected side.
Etc…
So one should always consider a different
technique for impression for e.g. Sectional
tray technique.
83. 1.The fifth cranial nerve which is the trigeminal nerve consists
greater somatic sensory and small somatic motor portion.
2.Its motor fibers supply the Masticatory Muscles that is
Masseter, Temporalis ,Lateral and Medial Pterygoid muscles.
The motor fibers of this nerve also supply the Tensor Palati
muscle, Mylohyoid Muscle, Anterior Belly of Digastric muscle,
Tensor Tympani muscle.
3.The sensory fibers of this nerve supply the skin of the entire
face and mucus membrane of the cranial viscera with
exception of the pharynx and the base of the tongue.
84. 4.The first of three divisions passes
through the superior orbital Fissure, the
second through the foramen Rotundum
and the third which joined by the entire
Somatized visceral motor portion ,
through the foramen Ovale.
5.A Prosthodontist should be thorough
with the course and area of supply of the
trigeminal nerve especially, so in order to
tackle any significant problem related to
it.
