The carotid sinus nerve branches off the glossopharyngeal nerve just after its appearance from the jugular foramen, descends along the internal carotid artery, and enters the carotid sinus. There have been many studies of the pathway and the course of the carotid sinus nerve and its communications with surrounding nerves. The intercommunication is exceedingly complicated. Acknowledgment of its anatomic diversity can be important in specific operations dealing with this area. Herein we review the anatomy, variations, pathology, and clinical applications of the carotid sinus nerve.
颈动脉窦神经在舌咽神经离开颈静脉孔后立即分支,沿着颈内动脉下降,进入颈动脉窦。已经有许多关于颈动脉窦神经的途径和行程及其与周围神经的通讯的研究。这种相互沟通非常复杂。认识到其解剖多样性在涉及该区域的特定手术中非常重要。本文综述了颈动脉窦神经的解剖、变异、病理和临床应用。
