face and parotid region Flashcards
what do facial muscle derive from?
2nd pharyngeal arch mesoderm
facial motor innervation?
VII facial nerve
facial sensory innervation?
V1-3 trigeminal and SOME from the cervical plexus via great auricular nerve
muscle that surrounds eye?
orbicularis oculi —orbital part = tight closure of eye —parpebral part = involuntary blinking —lacrimal part = flow of tears
muscle that smiles — mouth upward and outward?
zygomaticus major
sphincter of mouth that allows closure and pursing of lips
orbicularis oris
primarily sucking and expelling air but also an accessory muscle of mastication
buccinator
what is the buccinator pierced by?
parotid duct
muscle that expresses surprise and used in deep inspiration
platysma
course of facial nerve
*emerges at stylomastoid foramen *two branches –> posterior auricular nerve and nerve to the posterior belly of digastric/stylohyoid muscles *enters parotid gland superficial to the ECA and retromandibular vein *divides into upper temporofacial division and a lower cervicofacial division
after the parotid gland, the facial nerve has two main branches?
upper temporofacial lower cervicofacial
branches off the temporofacial division of facial nerve
temporal branches - all superior to zygomatic arch zygomatic branches - zygomatic, orbital, and infraorbital regions buccal branches - upper lip
branches off cervicofacial division of facial nerve
buccal branches - cheek and mouth including buccinator and orbicularis oris mandibular branches - lower lip and chin cervical branch - platysma
motor innervation for orbicularis oculi?
temporal and zygomatic branches of temporofacial division of facial nerve
motor innervation for zygomaticus major?
zygomatic and buccal branches of temporofacial division of facial nerve
motor innervation for orbicularis oris and buccinator?
buccal branches of cervicofacial division of facial nerve
motor innervation for platysma?
cervical branch of cervicofacial division of facial nerve
damage to the facial nerve at the stylomastoid foramen?
causes peripheral facial palsy = paralysis of ipsilateral muscles and inability to shut the eye (loss of motor limb for corneal reflex = cornea isnt protected) but corneal sensation is maintained by the intact trigeminal nerve
1–inability to shut the eye? 2–inability to open the eye?
1 - facial nerve damage - loss of corneal reflex 2 - damage to occulomotor and facial nerves (III and VII)
three divisions of the trigeminal nerve
V1 - ophthalmic V2 - maxillary V3 - mandibular
V1 and V2 are? V3 is?
1 and 2 just sensory 3 is both motor and sensory
V1 nerve
consists of supraorbital nerve and supratrochlear nerve through superior orbital fissure and supraorbital notch supply upper forehead and orbit
V2
maxillary = infraorbital nerve through foramen rotundum and infraorbital fissure supplies lower eyelid to the upper lip
v3
mandibular branch through the foramen ovale mental nerve through the mental foramen to supply chin and lower lip
facial artery branches off the…
ECA
facial arterial supply is from
facial artery and superficial temporal artery
facial artery
anterior to the facial vein deep to facial expression muscles branches = superior and inferior labial arteries, lateral nasal artery, and angular artery
superior temporal artery
arises behind neck of mandible and superficial/anterior to external ear ascends in front of the auriculotemporal nerve
what is behind the superior temporal artery as it ascends in front of ear?
auriculotemporal nerve
what does the superficial temporal artery give off inside the parotid gland?
transverse facial artery
what courses with parotid duct and supplies the gland/duct/adjacent skin
transverse facial artery
veins of the face
facial and retromandibular veins
facial vein course
begins at medial angle of eye and travels parallel and posterior to the facial artery joins the retromandibular to form common facial vein that enters the IJV
veins of face communicate with…
intracranial sinuses –> way for infection to spread into IJV/system

1 Temporal branch
2 Zygomatic branches
3 Parotid duct
4 Buccal branches
5 Marginal mandibular branch
6 Cervical branch
7 Main trunk of facial nerve


parotid duct passes _____ to the masseter m and pierces into _______
opens into ____
anterior
buccinator
pipilla by the 2nd upper molar
sturctures and relationships inside the parotid gland
inside are the facial nerve, retromandibular vein, and ECA (superficial -> deep)
parasympathetic secretomotor innervation of parotid gland?
glossopharyngel IX
sensory for parotid gland?
auriculotemporal nerve off of the V3
