Résumé

The lingual nerve is a branch of the posterior trunk of the mandibular nerve. It provides sensation and taste to the ipsilateral anterior two-thirds of the tongue. Posttraumatic neuropathy of the lingual nerve can be chronic and debilitating long after the inciting trauma. In this operative video, the authors describe a novel technique for the treatment of lingual nerve neuropathy with neuromodulation. They present a case of a 69-year-old female with posttraumatic lingual nerve neuropathy after left molar extraction. The patient reported 95% symptom improvement after the procedure. This video demonstrates the feasibility of lingual nerve neuromodulation. The video can be found here: https://youtu.be/l-CKP8-8eqk.
