Description |
Because the trigeminal nerve is mainly a sensory afferent, sensory testing remains the mainstay of the clinical examination. However, a thorough understanding of the efferent motor pathways and trigeminal reflexes allows the examiner to evaluate the various functions of the trigeminal system more effectively, leading to more accurate neuroanatomic localization. In addition, trigeminal nerve function should be examined within the context of its three divisions. |
