Ear and Nose Flashcards
the pinna
ear
change less in a life time than any other feature
ear
formed like a wedge
ear
made of cartilage except for lobe
ear
anatomical structures for locating modeled eaer
external auditory meatus
zygomatic arch
mandibular fossa
mastoid process
ear = length of ___
nose
ear is ___ of face
1/3rd
2x ear = ___ lenght of face
2/3rds
internal ear bones
malleus
incus
stapes
have no effect on surface form of ear
internal ear bones
hollows and cavities of ear
ear passage concha (shell) triangular fossa scapha intertragic notch
elevations and ridges of ear
helix and crus antihelix and crura tragus antitragus lobe
hole located inferior portion of medial 1/3rd of ear; on anterior border, orifice leading into organ of hearing; not visible from front/direct profile view
ear passage
deepest depression of ear; above and behind ear passage; vertical dimension is partially/completely divided into 2sections by crus/leg of outer rim of ear; walled in on all sides by bordering parts of ear, their size and form affect size
concha
second deepest depression in ear; depression between crura of ear; in between superior and inferior crus
triangular fossa
between inner and outer rims of ear; shallowest depression of ear; length, width, and dept vary
scapha
opening between tragus and antitragus; spillway of ear
intertragic notch
outer rim of ear; looks kinda like ?; may originate in interior anterior of medium wall of concha, could in middle area/posterior area; anterior portion merges with tempal
helix
inner rim of ear
antihelix
bifurcation of antihelix of ear
crura of antihelix
elevation that protects ear; projects from posterior margin of lateral cheek, porjects both laterally and posteriorly
tragus
obliquely opposite tragus; on superior border of lobe; help form intertragic notch
antitragus
inerior fatty 1/3rd of ear; lower part; anteriorly attach to face and part of intertragice notch; superiorly attach to intertragic notch, antitragus, antihelix, and helix
lobe
use and anterior margin as guide, assume line of tempal, tragus and lobe, anterior margin is paralele to nose; on profile from median line of brown out to median line of upper lip
inclination of ear
comparative size of length of nose to width of nose as indicated by its bony structure
nasal index
extends from root of nose to base of nasal cavity
length
