365: 52: 40: 264:. Shortly after the secretomotor parasympathetic fibers branch from the auriculotemporal nerve (parotid branches) to innervate the parotid gland, the auriculotemporal nerve comprises exclusively somatosensory fibers. It ascends to reach the superficial temporal region and innervate its target structures. 326:). Treatment involves the application of an antiperspirant or glycopyrrolate to the cheek, Jacobsen's neurectomy along the middle ear promontory, and lifting of the skin flap with the placement of a tissue barrier (harvested or cadaveric) to interrupt the misguided innervation of the sweat glands. 279:
Post-ganglionic parasympathetic secretomotor nerve fibres from the otic ganglion join and "hitch-hike" along the auriculotemporal nerve, leaving the nerve as it passes across the anteromedial surface of the parotid gland to enter and innervate said
