Pix Card 67

Use this card to organize information about the hypoglossal nerve. On the right side of the section draw in the motor nucleus associated with the hypoglossal nerve. Show the course taken by the exiting fibers of the nerve and identify structures that lie adjacent to these fibers, because they might also be damaged by a lesion in this region - and knowledge of these relationships may be useful in localizing the lesion (particularly important in this case). Then try provide the information listed below the section. Fill in your answers in the table on the back of the card.
