A scrivenersâ error is a term long used in the law to minimize the impact of a drafting mistake. The concept is that the scrivener a person performing the ministerial function of transcribing text simply gets it wrong and misspells a word, leaves something out, or puts something in that shouldn t be there.
Lingual nerve. The lingual nerve is located near the sides of the tongue (specifically below the lateral pterygoid muscle), and is responsible for its senses of taste and touch. The lingual nerve provides senses to the tongue's front two-thirds, as well as to the underside that surrounds it.It branches off the mandibular nerve and twists around the submandibular duct to reach the tongue.he lingual nerve provides senses to the tongue's front two-thirds, as well as to the underside that surrounds it. It branches off the mandibular nerve and twists around the submandibular duct to reach the tongue.
It runs forward deep to the mucosa of the floor of the mouth between the mucosa and the sublingual gland to open into the floor of the mouth on either side of the frenulum of the tongue (see Fig. 7.27). The duct, on the floor of the mouth, is closely related to the lingual nerve. As it goes forward it crosses medial to the nerve to lie above the nerve and then crosses back, this time lateral to it to reach a position once again below the nerve (Fig. 7.25). The nerve can easily be damaged during ligation of the duct while removing the gland.
