| 1. | The nasal glands are innervated with secretomotor from the greater petrosal nerve.
|
| 2. | Preganglionic parasympathetic fibres exit the geniculate ganglion as the greater petrosal nerve.
|
| 3. | The inferior petrosal sinus is where the pituitary gland drains.
|
| 4. | Also an inferior petrosal sinus enters the sigmoid sinus near the jugular foramen.
|
| 5. | The greater petrosal, carries soft palate taste signals to the facial nerve.
|
| 6. | I went to another team of doctors that immediately scheduled a petrosal sinus sampling.
|
| 7. | The first is the greater petrosal nerve and the second is the chorda tympani.
|
| 8. | This plexus gives off the lesser petrosal nerve.
|
| 9. | The lesser petrosal nerve provides autonomic parasympathetic fibers that eventually innervate the parotid gland.
|
| 10. | Note that a superior petrosal sinus enters the junction of the transverse and sigmoid sinuses.
