The aim of this review is to elucidate the communications between the facial nerves or facial nerve and neighboring nerves: the vestibulocochlear nerve, the glossopharyngeal nerve, and the cervical plexus.In a PubMed search, 832 articles were searched using the terms "facial nerve and communication." Sixty-two abstracts were read and 16 full-text articles were reviewed. Among them, 8 articles were analyzed.The frequency of communication between the facial nerve and the vestibulocochlear nerve was the highest (82.3%) and the frequency of communication between the facial nerve and the glossopharyngeal nerve was the lowest (20%). The frequency of communication between the facial nerve and the cervical plexus was 65.2 ± 43.5%. The frequency of communication between the cervical branch and the marginal mandibular branch of the facial nerve was 24.7 ± 1.7%.Surgeons should be aware of the nerve communications, which are important during clinical examinations and surgical procedures of the facial nerves such as those communications involved in facial reconstructive surgery, neck dissection, and various nerve transfer procedures.
前庭蜗神经、舌咽神经和颈丛。在PubMed搜索中，使用“面神经与联系”这一术语检索到832篇文章。阅读了62篇摘要，并对16篇全文进行了综述。其中，对8篇文章进行了分析。面神经与前庭蜗神经之间的联系频率最高（82.3%），而面神经与舌咽神经之间的联系频率最低（20%）。面神经与颈丛之间的联系频率为65.2±43.5%。面神经颈支与下颌缘支之间的联系频率为24.7±1.7%。外科医生应了解神经联系，这些联系在面神经的临床检查和外科手术（如面部重建手术、颈部清扫术和各种神经移植手术）中很重要。
