Special visceral efferent Information & Special visceral efferent Links at HealthHaven.com

Special visceral efferent (SVE) refers to efferent nerves which supply muscles which derived from the branchial arches.^[1]

Some sources prefer the term "branchiomotor",^[2] or "branchial efferent".^[3]

[edit] Examples

Examples of nerves that contain SVE fibers include the trigeminal nerve, the facial nerve, the glossopharyngeal nerve, the vagus nerve, and the accessory nerve.^[4]
