through the internal acoustic meatus
Path of the Facial nerve (CN7) in this area
travels through the internal auditory meatus, travels over inner ear structures and bends posteriorly at the internal genu and descends in the posterior wall of the tympanic cavity adn exits the skull in stylomastoid foramen it then bends forward to give innervation to muscles of facial expression
