A

Standing room only stupid

Superior orbital fissure (3,4,V1, 6)
Foramen rotundum (V2)
Foramen ovale (V3)
Spinosum (middle meningeal artery)

21
Q

What muscles of mastication are motored by V3?

A

masseter
temporalis
lateral and medial pterygoid

PLUS
anterior belly digastric
mylohyoid
tensor veli palatini
tensor tympani
22
Q

What are all of the nerves that move the eyeball?

A

3, 4, 6

23
Q

What is nerves innervate eye muscles?

A

LR6 (SO4)3

Lateral rectus- 6
Superior rectus-4
Everything else- 3

24
Q

What nerve opens that pupil wide?

A

sympathetics (tarsal muscle of Mueller)

25
Q

What the functions of the oblique muscles?

A

IO UO SO DO

inferior oblique moves eye up and out
superior oblique moves eye down and out

26
Q

What nerves have parasympathetics?

A

3, 7, 9, 10

3, 7, 9 use branches of 5

7, 9, 10 taste function

27
Q

Why is chorda typamni tested a lot?

A

branch of 7

efferent parasym fibers to submandibular and sublingual gland

afferent anterior 2/3 tongue sensory info to brain

Jumps on branch of 5 (lingual n)

Greater petrosal nerve also jumps on branch of 5. Target is lacrimal, snot making nasal and pterogopalatine glands.

28
Q

What is the number 1 cause of Bell’s palsy?

A

Viral infection

Can’t taste, dry mouth, can cry- lesion brtween greater petriosal nerve and chorda tympani

29
Q

What nerve do you use to see?

A

CN II

30
Q

What nerve to Focus (lens)?

A

CN III (ciliary muscle)

31
Q

What nerve to Bright light?

A

CN III (sphinter pupillae)

32
Q

What nerve to Open your eyes?

A

CN III (levator palpebrae)

33
Q

What nerve to Force eyes close?

A

CN VII

34
Q

What goes through jugular foramen?

A

9, 10, 11

35
Q

What does vagus mean?

A

wanders into thorax and abdomen

parasympathenic innervation of organs

slows the heart while speeding up digestion

36
Q

What is the interesting origin of accessary nerve XI?

A

originates in Spinal cord
through foramen magnum into cranium
leaves jugular foramen

37
Q

What happens if accessary nerve lesioned?

A

inability to shrug shoulder on same side (trapezius)

or turn head to opposite side

38
Q

All muscles except one ending in glossus are intervated by CN 12. What is the exception?

A

palatoglossus (CN X)

39
Q

What happens if lesion to right CN III?

A

Right eye. downward and outward gaze, dilated pupil, eyelid manually elevated due to ptosis. cant bring eye medially.

40
Q

What happens if lesion to CN VII

A

Bells palsy

41
Q

What happens if lesion to right CN XI?

A

cant shrug right shoulder

42
Q

What happens if lesion to right CN XII?

A

Tongue bent to right

43
Q

What happens if lesion to left CN VI?

A

when looking toward left, left eye does not abduct so stays straight

44
Q

What does the vagus sit between?

A

Jugular and common carotid

45
Q

What sensory innervates the tongue?

A
