Abstract:
A 41-year-old man presented with a unilateral atrophy and paresis of his tongue which were not explained by any pathological finding in the brainstem or at the base of the skull. The diagnosis of right internal carotid artery dissection was suggested by magnetic resonance imaging and ultrasound examination and confirmed by arterial angiography. During anticoagulant therapy clinical recovery and angiographical improvement occurred.

Cranial nerves are responsible for transmitting motor and sensory information between the brain and various parts of the body. There are twelve pairs of cranial nerves. While the first six innervate the head and neck, the latter six nerves innervate the head and neck, as well as organs and tissues in the thoracic and abdominal cavities. They facilitate communication, expression, and autonomic control within the human body.
