This article is a review of the anatomical literature about of the facial nerve. It has historical aspects, functional components, periphery route inside and outside of the petrous portion of the temporal bone. It describes the nerve branches and territories of innervation. It also describes its nervous connections to the brain`s stem, specifically to the pons, which is the cerebral center, where facial nerves’ motor and vegetative nucleus is located. The information presented here could be useful to students of medicine, dentistry and others health programs at level of undergraduate and postgraduate. In this article have been used known books of anatomy and neuroanatomy. It has been also used articles of the last five years written by professional in neurosurgery, otorhinolaryngology and morphology. This article presents a correlation among the facial nerve anatomy and its implications in pathology, trauma and surgery of head and neck region.
