Foramen + CN XII

A

Hypoglossal, hypoglossal canal

19
Q

Foramne + CN V: V1, V2, V3

A

V1 (opthalmic division of the trigeminal) travels through the superior orbital fissure, V2 through the jugular rotundum (maxillary process of the trigeminal), and V3 travels through the jugular ovale (manibular process of the trigeminal)

20
Q

Oculomotor: modality, sites of innervation, function, associated foramen

A

Parasympathetic (visceral motor): provides parasympathetic innervation to the constrictor pupillae, ciliary muscles via the ciliary ganglion

Somatic motor (general somatic efferent) provides motor innervation to the levator palpebrae superiors , superior rectus, medial rectus, inferior rectus, and inferior rectus, inferior oblique muscles of the eye

superior orbital fissure

21
Q

Abducens

A

somatic motor (general motor efferent) abducens abducts the lateral rectus muscles of the eye

enters cranium via superior orbital fissure

22
Q

Olfactory

A

special sensory (olfaction) afferent

nuclei is in the olfactory bulb

23
Q

Trochlea

A

somatic motor (general motor efferent) provides innervation to the superior oblique muscles of the eye

enters cranium through the superior orbital fissure

24
Q

Optical

A

Special sensory (afferent) from the eyes

25
Q

Ocular muscle movement: abduction, adduction, etc

A

medial rectus (MR)—
moves the eye inward, toward the nose (adduction)
lateral rectus (LR)—
moves the eye outward, away from the nose (abduction)
superior rectus (SR)—
primarily moves the eye upward (elevation)
secondarily rotates the top of the eye toward the nose (intorsion)
tertiarily moves the eye inward (adduction)
inferior rectus (IR)—
primarily moves the eye downward (depression)
secondarily rotates the top of the eye away from the nose (extorsion)
tertiarily moves the eye inward (adduction)
superior oblique (SO)—
primarily rotates the top of the eye toward the nose (intorsion)
secondarily moves the eye downward (depression)
tertiarily moves the eye outward (abduction)
inferior oblique (IO)—
primarily rotates the top of the eye away from the nose (extorsion)
secondarily moves the eye upward (elevation)
tertiarily moves the eye outward (abduction)

26
Q

Trigeminal: V1 components

A

Opthalmic division: consists of lacrimal nervem nasociliary nerve, frontal nerve.

27
Q

Trigeminal: V2 components

A

Maxillary division: Zygomatic, infra orbital, superior alveolar nerves

28
Q

Trigeminal: V3 components

A

Mandibular division: meningeal branch, auriculotemporal, buccal, lingual , inferior alveolar nerve

29
