Anthony gets into a fight between rival gangs. As an attacker comes at him with a knife, he turns to flee, but stumbles. The attacker stabs him on the medial side of the right gluteal fold and Anthony collapses. He loses all use of his right limb, being unable to extend his hip, flex his knee, or move hisfoot. He never fully recovers these lost functions. Explain what nerve injury Anthony has most likely suffered.
Upon examination, you ask the patient to close his eyes while you proceed to lightly touch the cheek with a feather. The patient is unable to feel the sensation. Afterward, you ask the patient to bite down and observe weakness. Which cranial nerve is most likely dysfunctional?
