Blood Supply To The Head And Neck Flashcards
Origin of right and left subclavian artery
right is from brachiocephalic trunk(has only a cervical part)
-left is from arch of aorta(has a cervical and thoracic part)
The brachiocephalic trunk bifurcated at what point
Sternoclavicular joint
SUBCLAVIAN ARTERY
divided into - parts by the-
3
Scalenus anterior
Origin of Costocervical trunk on the right subclavian artery and left subclavian artery
note that the Costocervical trunk is from the second part on the right and first part on The left
largest branch of first part of subclavian artery
Vertebral artery
Vertebral artery is divided into - parts
State their regions
And ending of vertebral artery is?
divided into 4 parts; 1st is from origin to foramen transversarium of C6; second is from FT C6 to FT C1; third is from FT C1 to foramen magnum; fourth is from foramen magnum to lower pons
-it ends by merging with its brother to form basilar arteyy

Costocervical trunk
At what level does the internal thoracic artery terminal and into what?
6th intercoastal space
By becoming musculophrenic artery and superior epigastric artery

Inferior thyroid artery
Transverse cervical artery
Suprascapular artery
Branches of Costocervical trunk
A deep cervical branch
2 posterior intercoastal branch
Origin and alternative origin on dorsal scapula artery
either a direct branch or deep branch of transverse cervical artery
Arteries involved in the arterial anastomoses of scapula
Deep branch of transverse cervical artery
Suprascapular artery
Subscapular artery(3rd part of axillary) Circumflex scapula artery (branch of subscapula)
Origin of the right and left common carotid artery
right carotid originates from a bifurcation at right sternoclavicular joint
-left is directly from arch of aorta
Branches of the common carotid in the neck
the 2 common carotid arteries do not give any branch in the neck
Point of bifurcation of the common carotid arteries
the common carotid arteries bifurcate at C4(level of superior margin of thyroid cartilage )
Which triangle does bifurcation of common carotid artery occur
this bifurcation occurs in the carotid triangle
Orientation of the external carotid vs internal carotid
has a curved course making it anteromedial to internal carotid at the lower part and anterolateral to it at the upper part
External carotid artery supplies which areas of the body
supplies areas of head and neck external to the cranium
External carotid artery travels up behind the ——- but anterior to —— and bifurcates in the ——- into—— and ——-
travels up the neck; posterior to mandibular neck but anterior to the lobule of the ear
-ends within the parotid gland by dividing into superficial temporal artery and maxillary artery (deep)
How many non- terminal branches does External carotid artery have?
has 6 branches in total
List the branches of the External carotid artery
Superior thyroid artery Ascending pharyngeal artery Lingual artery Facial artery Occipital artery Posterior auricular artery

from back of ECA just above the tip of greater Cornu of hyoid bone
Back of ECA Above occipital
What is the main arterial supply of the tongue
Lingual artery
Lingual artery may originate from —- instead of as a direct branch of ECA
Lingual artery is divided into - by - muscle
Linguofacial trunk
3 parts by hyoglossus muscle
