However, during base of tongue reconstruction the lingual nerve is often severed on one or both sides, affecting sensation in the preserved tissue of the anterior tongue. The loss of specific tongue sensations could negatively affect a person\u2019s oral function and quality of life. The aim of this study was to explore the effects of different types of lingual nerve intervention on sensory function for patients with base of tongue cancer as compared to healthy, age\u2010matched adults. Subjects included 30 patients who had undergone primary oropharyngeal reconstruction with a radial forearm free\u2010flap and 30 matched controls. Sensations tested were temperature, two\u2010point discrimination, light touch, taste, oral stereognosis and texture on the anterior two\u2010thirds of the tongue. Results indicated that type of surgical nerve repair may not have a significant impact on overall sensory outcomes, providing mixed results for either nerve repair technique. Sensations for the nonoperated tongue side and operated side with lingual nerve intact were comparable to matched controls, with mixed outcomes for nerve repair. The poorest sensory outcomes were observed in patients with the lingual nerve severed, while all patients with lingual nerve intervention exhibited deteriorated taste sensation on the affected tongue side. Overall, patients in this study who had undergone oropharyngeal reconstruction with lingual nerve intervention exhibited decreased levels of sensation on the operated tongue side, with minimal differences between types of lingual nerve repair.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1365-2842.2011.02253.x","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2011,9,16]],"date-time":"2011-09-16T14:44:22Z","timestamp":1316184262000},"page":"170-181","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":18,"title":["Sensory outcomes of the anterior tongue after lingual nerve repair in oropharyngeal cancer"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"39","author":[{"given":"T.
