CN V Flashcards
Which CN are associated with Trigeminal sensory nuclei and which functional group
- GSA
- CN V, VII, IX, X
What are the 3 subdivisions of the Trigeminal sensory nuclei
Mesncephalic nucleus
Chief nucleus
Spinal nucleus
Trigeminal mesencephalic nucleus general
Proprioception
Projects to motor nucleus of V to control jaw jerk reflex an force of bite
Trigeminal Chief general
2 point discrimination, pressure
Trigeminal Spinal nucleus general
Pain, temperature, light touch
Trigeminla nerve division
Type and path
- Opthalmic (V1)
- Sensory
- Superior orbital fissure
- Maxillary (V2)
- Sensory
- Rotundum
- Mandible (V3)
- Motor and sensory
- Ovale
Trigeminal course and distribution
- Largest CN
- Anterior pons
- Small motor root
- Large sensory root
- Posterior cranial fossa
- Apex of petrous part of temporal bine in middle cranial fossa
- Sensory root forms trigeminal ganglion
CNV1
Function
GSA
Sensation of forehead
Scalp
Eyelids
Nose
Eye
Mucous membrane of nose and sunuses
CN V1
Origin
Associated nuclei
Target tissues, via trigeminal (semilunar) ganglion
Trigeminal sensory nucleus
3 major branches of Opthalmic Division
Frontal n
Lacrimal n
Nasociliary n
Frontal n
type
subdivisions
- CN V1–> Frontal n
- ALL SENSORY
- Supraorbital n
- Supratrochlear n
Nasociliary n
Subdivisions
- CN V1–> Nasociliary n
- Posterior ethmoid n
- Anterior ethmoid n
- External nasal n
- Infratrochlear n
- Long ciliary nn(2-3 branches)
- Short ciliary nn (8-12 branches) via ciliary ganglion
Frontal n. subdivisions functions
- Supraorbital n.
- Frontal sinus, skin superior to lateral orbit, and lateral upper eyelid
- Supratrochlear n.
- Frontal sinus, skin superior to medial orbit and medial upper eyelid
Lacrimal n. function
- Conjuctiva
- lacrimal gland
- Skin of upper eyelid
- Parasympathetic hitch-hikers
- Communicates with zygomatic n of V2
- CN 7 hitch hikes
- Associated with Pterygopalatine ganglion
Nasociliary subdivisions
- Posterior ethmoid
- Anterior ethmoid
- External nasal
- Infratrochlear n
- Long ciliary
- SHort ciliary
Posterior ethmoid
Function
Path
Ethmoid sinus, sphenoid sinus
Posterior ethmoid foramen
Anterior ethmoid
Function
Path
Ethmmoid sinus Nasal cavity
Ant ethmoid foramen
External nasal
Apex of nose
Infratrochlear n
Conjuctiva, lacrimal structures, bridge of nose, eyelids
Long Ciliary
Sclera and cornea
Sympathetic runs along with it
Short Ciliary
- Ciliary body and iris
- Hitch hikes with CN3, edinger-westphal
- Sympathetics
