Cranial Nerve Stimulation for Olfaction (Cranial Nerve 1)
2020, Otolaryngologic Clinics of North AmericaCitation Excerpt :The first reports appear in the late 1800s, when the cases of anosmia are mostly attributed to falls from horses or blows to the head.11 The earliest estimates of anosmia following head injury suggested an incidence of 4% to 7%, although these reports varied widely in severity of injury as well as the methods used to assess the dysfunction.12,13 In their 1991 review, Costanzo and Zasler14 reported anosmia in 25% to 30% of patients with severe head injury, 15% to 19% of those with moderate head injury, and 0% to 16% of those with mild injuries.
Posttraumatic olfactory dysfunction
2016, Auris Nasus LarynxCitation Excerpt :The earliest known reports of posttraumatic smell dysfunction appear in the late 1800s, mostly attributed to falls from horses or blows to the head [17–21]. Early estimates of anosmia following head injury suggested an incidence of 4–7%, though these reports varied widely in severity of injury as well as the methods used to assess the dysfunction [22–26]. In their 1991 review, Costanzo and Zasler reported anosmia in 25–30% of patients with severe head injury, 15–19% in those with moderate head injury, and 0–16% in those with mild injuries [27].
Smell and Taste Disorders
2012, Facial Plastic Surgery Clinics of North AmericaCitation Excerpt :Hendriks50 combined several reported studies of patients with olfactory dysfunction and found that approximately one-third of the patients recovered their olfactory ability. About 5% to 10% of patients with head trauma suffer from smell loss, often from occipital or frontal blows.60–63 The location of cranial trauma is related to the degree of olfactory loss.
