InfratemporalFossa
Lateral: Ramus-Mandible Anterior: Maxilla Medial: Lat. Pterygoid Plate Superior: Sphenoid-Greater Wing Posterior: Spine of the Sphenoid
Infratemporal Fossa-Contents
Pterygoid Plexus Lateral Pterygoid M. -Has Superior & Inferior Heads Medial Pterygoid M Maxillary Artery with 15-17 branches Chorda Tympani Nerve Branches of V3 Otic ganglion
Maxillary Artery with 15-17 branches three parts
Has the following 3 parts:
Superficial
Intermediate
Deep
Maxillary Artery comes off of what artery
external carotid artery
Inferior alveolar artery
comes off of the superficial maxillary artery and goes the opposite direction than the others, so it goes to your lower teeth and gums
middle meningeal
comes off of the superficial maxillary artery
Branches off of V3 (mandibular division of trigeminal n)
- Inferior Alveolar N
- N. to Mylohyoid
- Lingual Nerve
- Buccal Nerve
- Auriculotemporal Nerve
Chorda Tympani Nerve
(Br. of CN VII)
Comes together and runs with lingual N
supplies taste to the anterior 2/3’s of tongue and parasympathetic innervation to the submandibular gland and sublingual
Buccal Nerve
- branch of V3
- sensory to the cheek
Lingual Nerve
- branch of V3
- sensory fibers supply sensory to anterior 2/3’s of tongue
N. to Mylohyoid
comes off of inferior alveolar N and innervates the Mylohyoid muscle
Inferior Alveolar N
-branch of V3
enters mandible gives off sensory branches to lower teeth and jaw
Auriculotemporal Nerve
- branch of V3
- supplies general sensation to the posterior temporal region
- Splits around the Middle Meningeal Artery-parasympathetic to parotid gland
Otic ganglion
-gives off post ganglion parasympathetic innervation to your parotid gland, when its stimulated it causes carotid gland to secrete saliva
All Parasympathetic cranial nerves send out pre ganglions to viscera where it then reaches the post ganglion which then sends the
post ganglions to the organ
How many cranial nerves contain parasympathetic ganglions?
4 cranial nerves contain parasympathetic ganglions
which is larger, pre or post ganglions?
typically pre ganglions
Bones forming the “root” or “bridge” of the nose
Nasal Bones (2)
Frontal Process-Maxillary Bone (2)
Nasal Process-Frontal Bone (2
entrance to the Nasal Cavity
Piriform Fossa
Quadrangular (Hyaline)
Cartilage that forms the septum itself
Boney septum
behind quadrangular hyaline
The nasal septum consists of anterior and posterior part:
a. anterior, cartilaginous part;
b. posterior, bony part
Muscles of the nose include (Netter: 35):
a. Nasalis (opens the nostrils)
b. Depresso septi
c. Levator Palpebrae Superioris Alaque (nasi)
Levator Palpebrae Superioris Alaque (nasi) function
scruntches nose
procerus
between orbits and when you contract it furrows your brows, makes you frown
Depresso septi
under the septum, stabilizes the septum
Philtrum:
the space or depression b/w the 2 ridges created by the depress septi
nasopharynx
cavity in throat that is behind the nasal cavity.
choana
egg shaped openings that separates nasal cavity (air from nose) from nasopharynx
choana boundaries
Lateral Boundary-Perpendicular Plate-Palatine Bone
Medial Boundary- Bony Nasal Septum
limen nasi
where the skin ends and the respiratory mucus begins
