Q

Preganglionic parasympathetic fibers arise from …

Carried by which CNs?

A
  • nuclei in the brainstem and synapse at 4 ganglia in the head (cilliary pterygopalatine, otic and submandibular)
  • III, VII, IX, X
21
Q

All post ganglionic fibers travel on?

A

branch of CN V that arrive at the structure they innervate

CN V is the highway

22
Q

Olfactory N

A

Course: originates in the nasal cavity > through the cribiform plate > synapse in olfactory bulbs
Lesion: can’t smell

23
Q

Optic N:

A

Course: Originates in the retina and terminates in the visual cortex
Optic chiasm = crossing over, lesions at different parts of the tract cause different vision patterns, and you can tell where the lesions are
Lesion: Anopesia (visual defects)

24
Q

Ocular muscle nerves:

A

CN III, IV, VI

25
Q

*Oculomotor:

A

Course: Oculomotor and Edinger Westphal nuclei
Provides innervation to most of the eye muscles, mostly raising eye and turning it inward
Lesion: Ptosis (eyelid droop), EOM paralysis, strabismus (eyes not parallel), diplopia, difficulty focusing

26
Q

*Trochlear N.

A

Course: trochlear nucleus > through the superior orbital fissure to the superior oblique muscle
Supplies the superior oblique muscle, basically moving the eye down
Lesion: superior oblique paralysis, leading to strabismus (deviated eyes), diplopia

27
Q

*Abducens N.

A

Course: Pontine/abducens nucleus in the pons > superior orbital fissure to lateral rectus muscle, basically moving the eye laterally
Abducts the eye
Lesion: paralysis of lateral rectus, no abudction/lateral eye movement

28
Q

Right oculomotor nerve palsy
Cause
Clinical

A

Paralysis of the right oculomotor n.

Can’t gaze up and in, so gaze is down and out. Dilated pupil

29
Q

Left abducent nerve palsy:
Cause
Clinical

A

Abducent nerve paralysis.

Can’t move eye laterally, so gaze is stuck medially

30
Q

Trigeminal Nerve overall functions

A

Muscles of mastication, tensors, mylohyoid and anterior belly of the digastric
Sensory of most of the face and scalp (all over the place, not just the skin)

31
Q

Trigeminal Nerve:

A

Course: From pons > branches in v1, v2, v3 > through the respective foramina and terminal innervations
Lesions: Trigeminal neuralgia = intense pulsating pain lasting for minutes to hours

32
Q

Shingles and trigeminal nerve

A

Virus can follow the CN V tracts. Tingling and rash following the innervation maps of the branches

33
Q

Facial N.

A

Course:
Nuclei within the pons > internal acoustic meatus > branches into 5
Lesion: decreased tearing and salivation, loss of taste at anterior 2/3, Bell’s Palsy (paralyzed facial muscles, eyelid drop, sagging of mouth)

34
Q

*Describe the visceral motor (parasympathetic pathway) to the lacrimal gland:

A

Greater petrosal N. (from CN VII) > through middle cranial fossa > joins the Deep petrosal N. (sympathetic) = nerve of pterygoid canal > through the pterygopalatine fossa > parasympathetic fibers synapse to pterygopalatine ganglion > post synaptic parasympathetic fibers innervate the lacrimal gland via zygomatic branch and lacrimal nerve

35
Q

*Describe the visceral motor (parasympathetic pathway) to the submandibular and sublingual glands

A

CN VII > chorda tympani > petrotympanic fissure > joins lingual N. (CN V3) in infratemporal fossa > parasympathetic fibers synapse in submandibular ganglion > post synaptic fibers follow arteries to glands and synapse there

36
Q

Vestibulocochlear N.

A

Course: Vestibular branch originates at vestibule of inner ear while cochlear branch originates in cochlea of inner ear > internal auditory meatus
Lesion: loss of balance, n,v and dizziness for vestibular branch, loss of hearing for the cochlear branch

37
Q

Glossopharyngeal N.

A

Taste and sensory in posterior 1/3 of tongue, chemoreceptor fibers to the carotid bodies, innervates stylopharyngeus m. (pharynx muscle) and parotid salivary gland (parasympathetic)
Lesion: reduced salivary secretion, loss of taste sensations in posterior tongue

38
Q

*Describe the parasympathetic innervation of the parotid gland through CN IX

A

CN IX > tympanic N. > jugular foramen > enters middle ear > forms the tympanic plexus > Lesser petrosal nerve arises from the tympanic plexus > lesser petrosal nerve enters the middle cranial fossa > leaves cranium through the foramen ovale > parasympathetic fibers synapse at otic ganglion > postsynaptic fibers innervate parotid gland via auriculotemporal n.

39
Q

Vagus N.

A

Parasympathetic: innervates visceral smooth muscle, cardiac muscle, glands of heart, throat and abdomen
Motor: pharynx and larynx muscles
Visceral sensory : throat, heart, lungs, abdomen organs
General sensory: external auditory canal, eardrum and pharynx

40
Q

Lesion in Vagus causes….

A

Larynx problems, difficulty swallowing or impaired GI mobility

41
Q

Spinal Accessory N.

A

Innervates SCM and trapezius
Lesion: paralysis of trapezius and SCM, causing difficulty elevating shoulder (traps) or turning head opposite side (SCM)

42
Q

Hypoglossal N:

A

Intrinsic and extrinsic tongue muscles
Lesion: swallowing and speech difficulties due to impaired tongue movement. One sided lesion causes deviation of tongue to side of damage

43
Q

Which nerves are SSA (special sensory Afferent modalities)

A

II, VIII

44
Q

Which nerves are SVE (Special Visceral Afferent, Branchial)

A

V, VII, IX, X
