Q

Superior Alveolar and Infraorbital Nerves are branches of_____ of the TRIGEMINAl

A

V2 - Maxillary

inferior alveolar (mental), lingual, buccal, and Auriculotemporal = v3 MANDIBULAR

17
Q

Pablo was running. Doctors repair his punctured aorta but he still has difficult talking after 6 weeks. He leaves the hospital and is killed by a speeding car. Why did he have difficulty speaking?

A

Damaged X = goes by reccurent pharangeal branch

18
Q

Name the Nerve:

  1. To See:
  2. To Focus:
  3. When looking at Bright Light:
  4. To Open your eyes
  5. When you Force your eyes Closed?
A
  1. II
  2. III (Cilliary Muscle –> accomodate lens)
  3. III (sphincter Pupillae)
  4. III (levator Palpebrae)
  5. VII (7)–> Orbicularis Oculi
19
Q

What hitches a ride with the lingual nerve of 5 to bring taste to the anterior 2/3 of the tongue?

A

CHORDA TYMPANI (7)
(Cut the chorda you can’t taste your moms lasagna with the anterior 2/3 of tongue)
* LINGUAL is carrying pain sensation**

20
Q

What hitches a ride with 5 to cause your eyes to water and nose to run?

A

CN 7 –> travels on ZYGOMATIC branch of 5 to reach the lacrimal gland via post-synaptic fibers

21
Q

What muscles originate from the 2nd Pharyngeal Arch?

A 
SVE:  Muscles of Facial Expression
1. Posterior Auricular Branch
2. Temporal Branch
3. Zygomatic Branch
4. Buccal Branch
5. Mandibular Branch
6. Cervical Branch
also:
7. Posterior Belly Digastric
8. Stylohyoid
9. Stapedius (ear damper)
10. PLATYSMA = 7
22
Q

Describe the parasympathetic function of 7? (GVE)

A

GVE: Parasympathetics via:

  1. Greater Petrosal Nerve –> Pterygopalatine Ganglion –> Lacrimal Gland
  2. Chorda Tympani –> Submandibular Ganglion –> Submandibular, Sublingual Salivary Glands
23
Q

Describe the GVA, SVA, GSA, and SVE function of 7

A 
GVA = sensaton to deep palate
SVA = taste anterior 2/3 (chorda tympani!)
GSA = small part of ear pinna**
SVE = Pharyngeal motor = muscles of facial expression + post. belly digastric, platysma, stapedius, stylohyoi, Posterior Auricular branch
24
Q

Bell’s Palsy is due to a lesion in which nerve? What are some symptoms? What is the cause?

A
  1. Lesion in Facial Canal, somewhere between Greater Petrosial Nerve and Chorda Tympani
  2. No taste, mouth is DRY, but CAN cry
  3. CAUSE = VIRAL INFECTION
25
Q

Describe 9 to sense, and 10 to act

A

9 has GVA function in the Carotid Sinus that recognizes when BP is high–> sends a signal to 10 (VAGUS) to slow down the heart and decrease BP

26
Q

Describe the functional components of 9

A

GVA - sensory to deep palate, inner ear, CAROTID sinus, pharynx
SVA- taste posterior 1/3 of tongue ( 7 was anterior 2/3 = chord tympani)
GVE - GLOAP - lesser petrosal, otic ganglion, travels with auriculotemporal nerve of 5, to go to PAROTID DUCT
GSA - sensation to ear pinnae
SVE- stylopharyngeus muscle (aids in swallowing)

27
Q

What is the function of the stylopharyngeus muscle?

A

raises larynx + pharynx + AID IN SWALLOWING

- originates from styloid, goes to pharynx

28
Q

What is the order of muscles originating from styloid process?

A
  1. Stylopharyngeus (CN 9), 2. post. belly of digastric (7)

3. Stylohyoid (7)

29
Q

What originates from the THIRD Pharyngeal arch?

A

GLOAP

Glossopharyngeul–> lesser petrosal–> otic ganglion –> auriculotemporal –> parotid gland

30
Q

Describe the functional components of CN X

A

GVA - sensation to pharynx, larynx, abdominal viscera,
SVA - taste buds to epiglottis and glottis
GVE - PARASYMPATHETIC -> slows digestion, decrease heart rate
GSA - sensation to ear pinnae
SVE - Cricothyroid - tighten vocal chords/talking!! + Levator Palatini + PALATOGLOSSUS

31
Q

What is the function of cricothyroid?

A

Speaking -> moving the vocal chords

32
Q

What controls the muscles of the pharynx and voice box?

A

CRANIAL NERVE 10 - SVE functional component

33
Q

What Pharyngeal Arches does CN nerve 10 derive from?

A

ARCH 4: All CN X muscles above, except intrinsic larynx

ARCH 6: All intrinsic larynx, except cricothyroid (Arch 4)

34
Q

Eye pointing down and out, Ptosis, and drooping eyelid would be a result of a Palsy in which Cranial Nerve?

A

Cranial Nerve 3 - Occulomotor

35
Q

If eye does not abduct would be a result of a Palsy in which Cranial Nerve?

A

Cranial Nerve 6* ABDUCENS (lateral rectus –> moves eye out)

36
Q

Bells Palsy

A

Cranial Nerve 7

** viral infection that can screw up 7 as it passes through the STYLOMASTOID foramen **
