Abstract
Following skull base surgery or removal of tumors of the parapharyngeal space, jugular foramen syndrome can cause swallowing disorders. Because the vagal nerve and glossopharyngeal nerve pass through the jugular foramen, associated laryngeal paralysis can manifest as jugular foramen syndrome; however, depending on the extent of disease spread and resection, it can accompany paralysis of other lower cerebral nerves, such as the facial nerve, hypoglossal nerve, or trigeminal nerve. Additionally, intracranial complications, ataxia, and hemiplegia can occur, thus further complicating the problem.
