Q

Swallowing mechanism in horses:

A

In swallowing the epiglottis, sliding out from the intrapharyngeal ostium, by its retroflexion closes the entrance to the larynx. By elevating the dorsum of the tongue, the bolus passes across the laryngeal entrance into the esophagus. A false passage into the nasal pharynx is prevented by elevation of the soft palate.

Q

Swallowing mechanism in horses:

A

In swallowing, the bolus of food in the oral cavity, the bolus pushes the soft palate up, pushes the epiglottis back, runs along the rostal border of epiglottis to get injected into the esophagus, sliding out from the intrapharyngeal ostium, by its retroflexion closes the entrance to the larynx. By elevating the dorsum of the tongue, the bolus passes across the laryngeal entrance into the esophagus. A false passage into the nasal pharynx is prevented by elevation of the soft palate.

37
Q

what cranial nerve is most superficial on the face?

A

facial nerve – right under the cheek

38
Q

Where does the facial nerve come from?

A

facial nerve comes right out of the skull and through the parotid gland

39
Q

A

hemi paralysis on one side of the face

40

infraoribital nerve is an extension of the ____ nerve

A

maxillary

41

maxillary nerve

44
Q

A

mandibular nerve

45
Q

What nerve comes out of the infraorbital canal ???

A

maxillary nerve

46
Q

what innervates the rostal 2/3rds of the tongue

A

lingual nerve

47
Q

innervation of the teeth(roots)

A

V3 —> inferior alveolar nerve

48
Q

what does the inferior alveolar nerve turn into?

A

mental nerve that comes out of mental foramen

49

maxillary nerve (V2)

50
Q

what does the maxillary nerve terminate into?

A

infraorbital nerve

51
Q

motor nerve of the eyelid

A

facial nerve branch auriculopalpebral

52
Q

sensory nerve of the eyelid

A

supraorbital nerve from V1

53
Q

T/F cows don’t have a supraorbital nerve

A

TRUE - cornual nerve

54
Q

what nerve desensitizes the area around the base of the horn in cattle for disbudding?

A

cornual nerve

55
Q

Endoscopic entry route to guttral pouch

A

go up through ventral meatus –> poke it through pharyngeal slit and you’re in the pouch

56
Q

adductor of the vocal folds?

A

cricoaryentoid muscle

57
Q

what nerve is the main sensory supply to all the maxilla?

A

infraorbital nerve

58
Q

Drainage pathway for the all the sinuses?

A

rostal and caudal maxillary sinus share the opening –> space between dorsal and ventral conchi into the middle meatus of the nasal cavity

59
Q

How does the frontoconchal drain?

A

from the frontal sinus to the caudal maxillary sinus -> space between dorsal and ventral conchi into the middle meatus of the nasal cavity

60
Q

sinus infection in horses?

A

roots of the cheek teeth (maxillary teeth) stimulates the superior alveolar nerve

61
Q

what sinus can be affected in cattle if you dehorn too late?

A

A

the nasolacrimal duct

63
Q

what happens if you hit the nasolacrimal duct?

A

the tears in the eye wouldnt have a drinage pathway so they would be running down the face

67
Q

what muscle abducts the vocal cord?

A

dorsal cricoarytenoid muscle

68
Q

Explain what happens during laryngeal hemiplegia (roaring)

A

the reccruent larygngeal nerve has become damaged – happens on the left usually – maybe be attacked by lymph nodes when the horse is suick which invades the vagas and denervates L recurrent laryngeal branch

69
Q

Where does the left recurrent laryngeal nerve go?

A

the left recurrent laryngeal nerve reflects off the vagus around the arch of the aorta

70
Q

what happens if you deinnervates the dorsal cricoarytenoid muscle

A

if the muscle is damaged you get an instability to the vocal cords on the side thats affected (becomes floppy/passive)

71
Q

what causes the roaring sound?

A

when the horse breathes in the vocal fold flaps in the wind which creates the vibration that makes the noise
