Face Flashcards
Pretremantric branch to frontonasal prominence
CN V1 -opthalmic division of trigeminal nerve
what primordia are the muscles of facial expression derived from?
myoblasts assoc. w/ 2nd pharyngeal arch
why are muscles of facial expression innervated by CNVII, nerve of 2nd arch?
myoblasts migrate into the face (1st arch territory), drag innervation w/ them
2 foramina in zygomatic bone
- zygomaticofacial foramen
2. zygomaticotemporal foramen - located on deep surface of zygomatic bone
innervation of muscles of facial expression
CN VII - facial
orbicularis oculi
circular muscle surrounding eye; closes eyelid
zygomaticus major
attaches to corner of mouth; produces smile
orbicularis oris
circular muscle surrounding mouth; closes mouth
buccinator
muscle of cheek; used when blowing and chewing
frontalis
muscle of forehead
additional muscles of 2nd arch
platysma, posterior digastric, stylohyoid
sensory innervation of face
CN V - trigeminal nerve
where are afferent fibers cell bodies for CN V?
sensory ganglion (trigeminal or semilumnar ganglion)
Which foramina in cranial fossa do the branches of CN V pass through
V1- superior orbital fissure
V2 - foramen rotundum
V3 - foramen ovale
branches of CNV1 that innervate skin of the face (inferior –> superior)
- external nasal n. –> skin on bridge of nose
- infratrochlear n. –> skin on medial corner of eye + bridge of nose
- lacrimal n. –> skin on lateral corner of eye
- supratrochlear n.–> skin of forehead
- supraorbital n. –> skin of forehead
branches of CNV2 that innervate the face (inferior –> superior)
- infraorbital n.
- zygomaticofacial n.
- zygomaticotemporal n.
branches of CNV3 that innervate the face (inferomedial –> superolateral)
innervation of “beard-like” portion of skin
- mental
- buccal
- auricular temporal
major source of blood supply to face
facial artery (branch of ECA)
branches of the facial artery (inferior –> superior)
- inferior labial a.
- superior labial a.
- septal branch (source of nose bleeds)
- angular a. (terminates near medial corner of eye)
arteries that supply the face other than facial + facial branches
- transverse facial (branch of superficial temporal)
- supraorbital and supratrochlear a. (branches of opthalmic a.)
- infraorbital + mental a. (branches of maxillary a.)
branches of internal carotid artery that supply the face
internal carotid a. –> opthalmic a. –> supraorbital + supratrochlear
