Abstract
The trigeminal and facial nerves are placed at risk in a number of surgical procedures. The use of electromyography, nerve conduction studies, somatosensory evoked potentials, motor evoked potentials, and other techniques are described. Application to specific surgical types and the associated evidence for impact on surgical outcomes are discussed.Mesh:
