9 infratemporal fossa Flashcards
where is the infratemporal fossa?
region beneath base of skull and deep the ramus
communicates with temporal region and petrygopalatine fossa
six boundries of infra temporal
sup temporal
ant post maxilla
post styloif process
inf angle of mandible
med petrygoid plate
lat ramus of mandible
the ligament of infrate f is:
shenomandibular ligament extend from spine of sphenoid until the lingula of mandibular
nervs of infratem:
1 v3 and branches
2 otic ganglion
3 chorda tympani *ear
4 posterior superior alveolar n
artry and veins
a maxillary largest terminal branch of ECA
v pterygoid venous pexus max.vein
lateral pterygoid muscle
has superior and inferior parts
innervation is v3 mand of trig
what is the bilaterial action of lateral and medial pterygoid m?
lateral: move neck forword to upper and lower head
medial:elevates mandible
unilateral with med ptero rotate mandible
**
what is the unilateral action for lateral and medial pterygoid m?
unilateral with med ptero rotate mandible to opposite side
Medial pterygoid m
has superfacial and deep parts
innervation cnv3 *as lateral
1 mandibular nerve v3
passes through foramin ovale
Main trunks:
M V3 n to medial pterygoid
S V3 meningeal n
what is the v3 Anterior *smaller devision?
3m 1s
motor: 3 mastication muscles
sensory: buccle nerve
what is the v3 Posterior *larger devision?
1m 3s
motor: n to mylohyoid
sensory: lingual n
infer alveolar n
auriculotemporal n
2 what is otic ganglion *العقده
parasympathatic gangilion
beneath f ovale middil to mmn
function of otic ganglion:
carries secretomotor fibers to parotid gland
preganglionic fibers pass through the otic become postgangilion fibers
3 what is chorda tympani ?
swing like nerve
branch from facial n in middle ear leaves from there and join lingual n in infratempora fossa
