- Ophthalmic artery
- Palatine artery through incisive canal
* fracture of nasal septum or lateral ________ wall can be a real pain to control
* To stop EPISTAXIS = Packing of the nose
Waldeyer’s Ring
Tonsils in nasopharyngeal and oropharynx, between external environment and upper ends of respiratory and alimentary tracts
Epidural hematomas occur _______(speed) and from what source?
Fast and Arterial blood
Epidural hematomas common occurrence site?
Pterion, with the Middle Meningeal Artery deep to it.
How to identify/ differentiate a Epidural hematoma on a CT?
They DO NOT extend past the sutures of the skull. Sutures act as spot weld.
Epidural hematomas occurs between which layers?
Between the Dura matter and Skull
Subdural Hematomas occur _________(Speed) and source is _________?
Slow
Bridging veins
Subdural hematomas occur between which layers?
Between the Dura Matter and Arachnoid matter.
Venous drainage from skull?
Superior Sagittal Sinus and Straight sinus (which is a combo of Interior Sagittal Sinus and Basilar Vein) -> Confluence of Sinuses (1) -> Transverse Sinus (2) -> Sigmoid Sinus (2) -> Internal Jugular Vein (2) and Subclavian vein -> Superior Vena Cava
Lymph drainage from Submental Node vs Submandibular Nodes
-Middle lower lip. -Rest of lower lip
-Anterior gums. - upper lip
-Anterior tongue -sublingual gland
Clinical significance: Smokeless tobacco users will get inflammation and cancer or these nodes.
Lymph drainage for the superficial fascia of the face and scalp
Pericervical Lymph Collar -> Superficial Cervical Lymph Collar -> Deep Cervical Lymph Nodes (that run along the internal jugular vein) -> Subclavian Vein
MALT
Mucosa-associated lymphatic tissue
Bridging veins
Take blood from the cortex to the superior Sagittal sinus
Subarachnoid hematoma occurs _______(speed) and from what source?
Fast
Artery (most frequently from burst aneurysms)
Subarachnoid hematomas occurs between which layers?
Under the arachnoid layer, in the CSF (cerebral spinal fluid).
* will increase pressure in skull, and patient will complain of “Worst Headache of their Life”.
Cerebral hemorrhage
Rupture or blockage of vessels = result in stroke
*if you have blood clot in the left ventricle, arch of the aorta, or carotid artery those can break loose and get lodged in the cerebral vascular use, depriving everything down stream and cause clinical signs.
Microscopic one way gates that allow CSF to pass into the blood but never in reverse is ______?
Arachnoid Granulation
Lesions to Broca’s area would cause?
Expressive Aphasia
(-) inability to form spoken language coherently
(+) Ability to understand language unaffected
Lesion to Wernicke’s Area would cause?
Receptive Aphasia
(-) inability to understand spoken language
(+) ability to speak intelligibly is intact
Primary language cortex for most people is on the _______?
Left
Vision Decussation will cause the Right hemisphere to interpret the left visual field and Left hemisphere to interpret the right visual field, but because the Left Hemisphere is busy with language, the Right hemisphere will take on most of tracking movement, motion and shapes. Stroke on the left side will cause________?
Left Hemineglect
-Caused by stroke in the Left hemisphere’s middle cerebral artery lesion.
Describe the path/ branches from the External Carotid Artery as it travels into the brain.
External Carotid Artery ^ Superior Thyroid Artery v Occipital Artery ^ Lingual Artery ^ Facial Artery v Posterior Auricular Artery< Maxillary Artery and Superficial Temporal Artery
Describe the path/ branches of the Maxillary Artery as it travels from the External Carotid Artery to the face:
External Carotid Artery < Superficial temporal Artery and Maxillary Artery v Inferior Alveolar Artery ( which branches into the Mental branch of the Inferior Alveolar) ^ Middle Meningeal Artery ^ Sphenopalatine Artery ( which branches into the Nasal branch of the Sphenopalatine) v Greater and Lessor Palatine Artery < Superior Alveolar Artery and Infra Orbital Artery
The 1st half of the Maxillary Artery supplies all the blood to the muscles of mastication:
Masseter
Temporalis
Pterigoid (medial and lateral)
Describe the path/ branches of the Ophthalmic Artery as it travels from the Internal Carotid Artery to the Eye and eyebrow/ scalp.
Internal Carotid Artery v Ophthalmic Artery ^ Central Artery of the retina thenOphthalmic Artery does a 3 way split (1) Lacrimal Artery, (2) Posterior Ciliary Arteries, (3) Supratrochlear Artery (which splits off into the Supra Orbital Artery and the Anterior and Posterior ethmoid arteries)
Scalp is made up of 5 layers:
S =Skin
C=Connective Tissue
A=Aponeurosis (tendon between occipitalis and frontal is muscle)
L= Loose (areolar) connective tissue (reason scalp slides around)
P=Periosteum
What surrounds the Hypothalamus and Optic nerve?
Circle of Willis
Arteries that make the Circle of Willis?
Posterior circulation:
- Posterior Cerebral Artery (2)
Anterior circulation:
-Posterior Communicating Artery (2)
-Anterior Cerebral Artery (2)
-Anterior Communicating Artery (1)
If a stroke wipes out both temporal lobes (especially the hippocampus) then the patient would have?
Korsakoff’s syndrom
- retrograde amnesia - loss of memories back to a point
-anterograde amnesia - can’t form new memories
-usually results from chronic alcoholism
-or due to poor nutrition
Basil Ganglia is composed of ?
-Caudate nucleus (motor planning and invitation)
-Putamen
-Globus pallidus
More direct pathway to the thalamus with result in _________?
More movement overall
More indirect pathway to the thalamus will result in ________?
Less activity overall
Huntingtons disease
Will result in degeneration of the striatum (= caudate and putamen) which will result in more activity coming in the direct pathway and less activity coming through the indirect pathway.
