 Glossopharyngeal Nerve IX
The tympanic nerve leaves the skull via the jugular foramen and re-enters the skull through the inferior tympanic canaliculus and reaches the tympanic cavity where it forms a plexus in the middle ear cavity.
The glossopharyngeal nerve exits the brain stem as a series of nerve rootlets from the anterior surface of the medulla oblongata between the olive and inferior cerebellar pedicule.
The nerve consists of a large afferent component from the skin of the external ear, the pharynx, posterior one-third of the tongue, carotid sinus (baroreceptor - sensitive to changes in blood pressure) and the carotid body (chemoreceptors - sensitive to hydrogen ion concentration of the blood).
