Q

Parasympathetics of the pterygopalatine fossa

A

from the facial nerve via the greater petrosal nerve. the greater petrosal joins the deep petrosal to for the nerve of the pterygoid canal. The parasympathetic fibers from the greater petrosal n. supply the pterygopalatine ganlgion.

Q

Sympathetics of the pterygopalatine fossa

A

The deep petrosal n. arises from the internal carotid plexus and conveys postsynaptic sympathetic fibers which join branches of the maxillary n. via the pterygopalatine ganlgion (but don’t synapse there). Presynaptic parasympathetic fibers are from the superior cervical ganglion.

16
Q

Nasal cavity

A

Except for the vestibule of the nose (considered an external portion), all of the nasal are lined with nasal mucosa. Nasal mucosa is firmly connected to the periostium of the bony parts of the nasal cavity and the perichondrium of the cartilagenous nasal components. The areas lined with nasal mucosa constitute the respiratory area (inferior 2/3) and the olfactory area (superior 1/3).

17
Q

Nasal cavity olfactory area

A

has specialized nasal muscosa that the contains the peripheral nerve ending from the olfactory n. (CN I) for special sense olfaction

18
Q

Nasal cavity divided into 4 passages

A
  1. spheno-ethmoidal recess (opening of sphenoid sinus) 2. superior nasal meatus (openings of ethmoidal sinuses) 3. middle nasal meatus (opening of frontal sinus) • maxillary sinus also opens into middle nasal meatus in posterior part of semilunar hiatus at the maxillary ostium (below ethmoid bulla). 4. inferior nasal meatus (opening of nasolacrimal duct)
19
Q

4 nasal cavity passages labeled

A
20
Q

what is the area where all 5 arteries come together in a capillary bed that can bleed profusely?

A

kiesselbach area

21
Q

Arterial supply to the nasal cavity

A

Most of the blood is supplied to the lateral and medial walls of the nasal cavity from branches of the maxillary artery: sphenopalatine a.; anterior & posterior ethmoidal aa.; greater palatine a.

But also from the facial artery: • superior labial a. • lateral nasal branches

22
Q

Nerve supply to the posterior 2/3 of the nasal cavity is from?

A

V2 via the nasopalatine n (nasal septum) and greater palatine n. (lateral wall)

23
Q

nerve supply to the anteriosuperior nasal mucosa of the septum and lateral walls is from?

A

V1 via the anterior ethmoidal nerves

24
Q

Paranasal sinuses

A

air filled extensions of the respiratory portion of the nasal cavity; found in frontal, ethmoid sphenoid and maxillary bones of the face; lined w/ nasal mucosa; drain into the nasal cavity via openings in the spheno-ethmoidal recess, and superior, middle and inferior meatuses.

25
Q

Opening of nasal structures into the nose (labeled)

A
26
Q

function of the external and middle ear

A

transfer sound to the internal ear; external ear captures and funnels acoustic signals through the tympanic membrane to the middle ear, which contains a complex of small bones (ossicles) that then transmit sound vibrations to the inner ear where the organs of hearing and equilibrium are found

27
Q

Ear/Otic region (labeled)

A
28
Q

Contents of the middle ear

A

auditory ossicles: malleus, incus, stapes; stapedius and tensor tympani muscles; chorda tympani n. (taste to ant. 2/3 tongue from CN VII); tympanic plexus of nerves

29
Q

Boundaries (walls) of the middle ear

A

roof = tegmental wall (temporal bone = tegman tympani); floor = jugular wall; lateral = membranous wall (tympanic membrane); medial = labrynthine wall (cochlea, oval & round windows); anterior = carotid wall (internal carotid a.); posterior = mastoid wall (opening to mastoid antrum)

30
Q

Muscles of the middle ear (labeled)

A
31
Q

Middle ear auditory ossicles

A

a mobile “chain” of tiny bones that articulate with each other and transmit sound vibrations; span between the tympanic membrane (from external ear and the oval window (to inner ear); covered with mucus membrane, but no periosteum; (tympanic membrane) malleus – incus – stapes (oval window); stapedius muscle moves the stapes; tensor tympani muscle inserts on malleus

32
Q

Internal Ear

A

contains vestibulocochlear organ (hearing & equilibrium); buried deep within petrous part of temporal bone within otic capsule (hardest part of this bone); receives vestibulocochelar n. (CN VIII) via internal acoustic meatus

33
Q

cochlea

A

shell shaped part of bony labrinth containing cochlear duct, concerned w/ hearing

34
Q

vestibule

A

small oval chamber containing utricle and saccules; vestibular labyrinth for balance

35
Q

semicircular canals

A

communicate w/ vestibule; also for balance

36
Q

Internal Ear (labeled)

A
37
Q

Internal acoustic meatus

A

narrow canal w/i the petrous aprt of the temporal bone that transmits the facial n (CN VII) and vestibulocochlear n. (CN VIII), and blood vessels through to the internal ear
