Fibres and innervation for CNI
Sensory
Innervates olfactory epithelium
Fibres and innervation for CNII
Sensory
innervates the retina
Fibres and innervation for CNIII
motor fibres –> superior, inferior & medial rectus, inferior oblique, levator palpebrae superioris
parasympathetic –> ciliary muscles of eyeball & sphincter pupillae
Fibres and innervation of CNIV
motor –> superior oblique ocular muscles
Fibres and innervation of CNV
sensory —> face, scalp, cornea, nasal cavities
motor –> tensor tympani, parotid, submandibular & sublingual glands (chewing)
Fibres and innervation of CNVI
motor –> lateral rectus muscle of eyeball
What are the three divisions of CNV
ophthalmic –> sensory function above the lower eyelid
maxillary –> sensory function lower eyelid to the upper lip
mandibular –> sensory function below the upper lip
Fibres and innervation of CNVII
motor –> anterior 2/3 of the tongue (taste)
sensory –> muscles of facial expression
parasympathetic –> salivary & lacrimal glands
Fibres and innervation of CNVIII
sensory –> vestibula apparatus & cochlea
Fibres and innervation of CNIX
sensory –> pharynx, posterior 1/3 of the tongue, middle ear and eustachian tube
motor –> stylopharyngeus muscle (swallowing)
parasympathetic –> parotid gland salivation
Fibres and innervation of CNX
motor –> pharynx, larynx, trachea, oesophagus, aortic bodies, thoracic & abdominal viscera, aortic arch
sensory –> soft palate, pharynx, oesophagus (speech and swallowing)
parasympathetic –> thoracic & abdo viscera
Fibres and innervation of CNXI
motor –> sternomastoid and trapezius muscles
Fibres and innervation of CNXII
motor –> internal and external muscles of the tongue
