deck_Anatomie_P3 Flashcards
This flat muscle is located within the superficial fascia on the anterolateral aspects of the neck.
- O: undersurface of skin of lower neck and lateral chest
- I: lower border of mandible and skin of lower face and angle of mouth
- Innervated: CN VII (facial nerve)
platysma
This muscle is innervated by the accessory nerve (CN XI)
- Travels superiorly from its 2 heads on manubrium and medial 1/3 of clavicle to insert on lateral aspect of mastoid process of temporal bone
- Divides each side of the neck into anterior and posterior triangles
SCM (sternocleidomastoid muscle)
What is the most superficial of the 3 deep cervical fascias?
- encircles entire neck, separates into layers that pass both superficial and deep to SCM and trapezius, plus submandibular and parotid glands.
investing fascia
this fascia is located in anterior neck, surrounds larynx, trachea, esophagus, and thyroid.
- continuous posterosuperiorly w/buccopharyngeal fascia of pharynx
- highly moveable (allows larynx to move while swallowing)
visceral (pretracheal) fascia
this fascia forms a collar around the vertebral column and the deep muscles associated with it.
-extends laterally as the axillary sheath to surround the axillary vessels + brachial plexus of nerves
prevertebral fascia
This fascial sheath is called______ = it surrounds the carotid artery, internal jugular vein, vagus nerve, and deep cervical lymph nodes
carotid sheath
This bone ___ is a central tethering point for many muscles, but not all (in the neck).
hyoid bone
What classification (infrahyoid or suprahyoid) would these fall under?
- omohyoid
- sternohyoid
- sternothyroid
- thyrohyoid
infrahyoid
What classification (infrahyoid vs. suprahyoid) would htese fall under?
- ant. digastric
- post digastric
- stylohyoid
- mylohyoid
suprahyoid: elevate the hyoid bone
Together, the infrahyoid muscles and suprahyoid muscles perform this action:
move the larynx so that there can be swallowing or speaking.
What are the borders of the anterior triangle of the neck?
- Anterior border of SCM
- Midline
- Inferior margin of the mandible
The submental, submandibular, and carotid triangles are smaller triangles that the ______ neck triangle is subdivided into.
anterior neck triangle
This triangle is an unpaired triangle in the midline.
- Posteroinferior to mental protuberance of mandible
- Bordered by anterior bellies of digastric muscles and the hyoid bone
- Contains submental lymph nodes
Submental triangle
What makes up the floor of the submental triangle?
mylohyoid muscles
This triangle is defined by (borders): anterior and posterior bellies of digastric muscle and mandible.
submandibular triangle
The floor of submandibular triangle is made up of:
mylohyoid muscle
This triangle contains: submandibular gland and duct and portions of facial vessels, CN XIII (hypoglossal nerve), and nerve to the mylohyoid muscle (from CN V3), lymph nodes.
submandibular (digastric) triangle
This triangle is defined by the superior belly of the omohyoid muscle, posterior belly of digastric, and anterior border of SCM.
carotid triangle
This triangle contains:
- common carotid artery + its bifurcation
- internal jugular vein
- vagus nerve (CN X)
- deep cervical lymph nodes
- carotid body and carotid sinus (all encased within the carotid sheath)
- portion of the hypoglossal nerve (CN XIII)
- portion of cervical plexus
- ansa cervicalis
carotid triangle
This artery is a terminal branch of the brachiocephalic trunk.
R common arotid
This artery originates directly from arch of the aorta
L common carotid
The common carotid arteries bifurcate at the superior border of the thyroid cartilage into….____ and ____ carotid arteries
ext and int
The external carotid artery supplies:
upper neck, face, scalp
The internal carotid supplies:
brain, orbit, forehead
This is a dilatation of the proximal portion of the internal carotid artery ______.
-contains baroreceptors sensitive to changes in BP
carotid sinus
The ______ is small, highly vascularized, and is loc. at the tissues of the crotch of the carotid bifurcation - is a chemoreceptor sensitive to PO2 and PCO2.
carotid body
What are the 8 branches of the external carotid artery?
SAL FOP MS
- Sup thyroid
- Asc pharyngeal
- Lingual
- Facial
- Occipital
- Posterior auricular
- Maxillary
- Sup temporal
