Two patients with caudal pontine lesions had diminished intraoral sensation for all modalities sparing facial sensation. A third patient with lateral medullary infarction developed diminished facial pain and temperature sensation sparing intraoral structures. This segregation of intraoral sensation within the brainstem is consistent with animal studies which show that the rostral spinal trigeminal nuclei in the caudal half of the pons play an important role in intraoral and dental sensation.
两名患有脑桥尾端病变的患者所有感觉模式的口腔内感觉减退，但面部感觉保留。第三名患有延髓外侧梗死的患者面部疼痛和温度感觉减退，但口腔内结构感觉保留。脑干内口腔内感觉的这种分离与动物研究一致，动物研究表明脑桥后半部的延髓三叉神经核在口腔和牙齿感觉中起重要作用。
