Anatomy Flashcards
function: pulls the hyoid anteriorly / posteriorly and up to elevate the larynx; depresses jaw / mandible
suprahyoid digastric (anterior AND posterior belly)
origin / insertion: suprahyoid digastric, anterior belly
origin : lower border of mandible, near mandible symphysis :: insertion : intermediate tendon
function: suprahyoid digastric (anterior AND posterior belly)
pulls the hyoid anteriorly / posteriorly and up to elevate the larynx; depresses jaw / mandible
origin / insertion: suprahyoid digastric, posterior belly
origin : mastoid process :: insertion : intermediate tendon
function: pulls the hyoid anteriorly and up; potentially elevates the larynx
suprahyoid geniohyoid AND suprahyoid mylohyoid
origin / insertion: suprahyoid geniohyoid
origin : mental spine / mental symphysis of mandible :: insertion : hyoid body
origin / insertion: suprahyoid mylohyoid
origin : mylohyoid line on the inner surface of the mandible :: insertion : inside raphe
function: suprahyoid geniohyoid AND suprahyoid mylohyoid
pulls the hyoid anteriorly and up; potentially elevates the larynx
the suprahyoid geniohyoid is ___ to the suprahyoid mylohyoid
superior
function: draws the hyoid up and back; potentially elevates the larynx
suprahyoid stylohyoid
origin / insertion: suprahyoid stylohyoid
origin : styloid process of the temporal bone :: insertion : body of the hyoid
list the suprahyoid extrinsic laryngeal muscles (5)
digastric (anterior belly / posterior belly), geniohyoid, mylohyoid, stylohyoid
function: potentially lowers or depresses the larynx
infrahyoid omohyoid, inferior belly
origin / insertion: infrahyoid omohyoid, inferior belly
origin : scapula :: insertion : intermediate tendon
function: pulls the hyoid down and back
infrahyoid omohyoid, superior belly
origin / insertion: infrahyoid omohyoid, superior belly
origin : intermediate tendon :: insertion : great horn of the hyoid
function: pulls down on the hyoid bone; potentially lowers the larynx
infrahyoid sternohyoid
origin / insertion: infrahyoid sternohyoid
origin : manubrium of the sternum and the end of the clavicle :: insertion : lower border body of the hyoid
function: lowers the larynx by pulling down on the thyroid cartilage
infrahyoid sternothyroid
origin / insertion: infrahyoid sternothyroid
origin : manubrium of the sternum and the first costal cartilage :: insertion : oblique line of the thyroid
function: elevates the larynx or depresses the hyoid
