If A patient presents with dysphagia and other signs of stroke. What cranial nerve would you expect to be affected by this cerebral infarct?
The cerebellum controls output for the motor nuclei of cranial nerves V (trigeminal), VII (facial), and XII (hypoglossal). These nerves can be affected if you have dysphagia.

About Stroke
A stroke is the rapid loss of brain function due to loss of blood flow to the brain. The blood flow can be disrupted by either some sort of blockage or hemorrhage. This results in the complete stoppage of function in the corresponding area of the brain, leading to inability to move one or more limbs on one side of the body, inability to understand or formulate speech, or an inability to see one side of the visual field. A stroke is a medical emergency and can cause permanent damage to the nerves and even lead to death.
