Certain of the cranial nerves and their disorders have already been discussed: namely, disorders of olfaction in Chap. 11; of vision and extraocular muscles in Chaps. 12 and 13; of cochlear and vestibular function in Chap. 14; and craniofacial pain in Chap. 9. There remain to be described the disorders of the facial (VII) nerve and of the lower cranial nerves (IX–XII), as well as certain diseases that affect the trigeminal (V) nerve. These are considered here.
