The heads from 6 mature male wapiti and 8 mature male fallow deer were dissected to provide a description of the nerves supplying the antler pedicles. Innervation in both species was found to resemble that of the red deer, with major contributions coming from the infratrochlear and zygomaticotemporal nerves. All heads displayed a dorsal branch from the auriculopalpebral nerve, but in only 2 wapiti and 3 fallow deer heads was this branch observed travelling to the pedicle. The dorsal branches of the 2nd cervical nerve were isolated in each head but could not be traced to the pedicles. Failure to induce anesthesia of the antler employing specific nerve blocks on the infratrochlear and zygomaticotemporal nerves can occur if the dorsal branch of the auriculopalpebral nerve is not blocked.
解剖了6头成年雄性马鹿和8头成年雄性黇鹿的头部，以描述供应鹿茸角柄的神经。发现这两个物种的神经支配情况与马鹿相似，主要来自滑车下神经和颧颞神经。所有头部均显示有耳睑神经的背支，但仅在2头马鹿和3头黇鹿的头部观察到该分支延伸至角柄。在每个头部均分离出第2颈神经的背支，但无法追踪至角柄。如果不阻断耳睑神经的背支，对滑车下神经和颧颞神经进行特定神经阻滞时，可能无法诱导鹿茸麻醉。
