Face Scalp Parotid Flashcards
What are the layers of the scalp
Skin Connective tissue( dense) Aponeurosis epicranius Loose CT (plane of cleavage for injury) Pericardium
What nn inn the scalp
Greater occipital dorsal ramus C3 dorsal ramus Lesser occipital n Great auricular n Auriculotemporal V3 Zygomaticotemporal V2 Supraorbital V1 Supratrochlear V1
What aa supply scalp
Occipital, posterior auricular and superficial temporal (all from external carotid)
from internal carotid: supraorbital and supratrochlear a
What layer does the vasculature of scalp run in
dense CT
Describe venous drainage of scalp
vena comitantes of aa
emissary vv
What is clinically important about the scalp venous drainage
emissary vv are valveless so infections can spread from scalp to intracranial cavity
What layer of scalp does infections spread in
loose CT layer
can spread in eyelids and dorsum of nose causing ecchymosis
what is ecchymosis
extravasation of blood under skin
What are the mm of facial expression derived from and inn by
pharyngeal arch 2
in VII SVE
What are the mm associated with the eyes and eyebrows
orbital oculi
corrugator supercilli
describe the different parts of orbicularis oculi
orbital- forcefully closes eye
palpebral- gently closes eye
lacrimal- lacrimal fluid drainage
what is the action of corrugator supercilli
draws eyebrows down and in
worried look
What are the mm associated with the scalp/forehead
occiptofrontalis
describe the different parts of the occipitofrontalis
frontal and occipital bellies attach to epicranial aponeurosis
frontal belly elevates eyebrows and wrinkles the skin on forehead
occipital belly retracts scalp “surprised look”
What are the mm associated with the mouth
orbicularis oris buccinator levator labii superioris levator anguli oris zygomaticus major zygomaticus minor risorius levator labii superioris alaque nasi depressor anguli oris depressor labii inferioris mentalis
what is the action of orbicularis oris
closes lips/mouth
what is the action of buccinator
keeps cheek in contact with gums so that food does not accumulate in vestibule of mouth
describe action of levator labii superioris
elevate upper lip
describe action of levator anguli oris
elevates upper lip and widens mouth
what is the action of zygomaticus major
elevates upper lip
smile m
what is the action of zygomaticus minor
elevates upper lip
what is the action of risorius
stretches lips laterally- wide smile
what is the action of levator labii superiors alaeque nasi
elevates upper lip and flares nostrils
what is the action of depressor anguli oris
depresses lower lip
frown
what is the action of depressor labii inferioris
depresses lower lip
frown and pout
what is the action of mentalis
protrudes lower lip
What are the mm associated with nose
procerus
nasalis
what is the action of procerus
wrinkles skin over dorsum of nose
what is the action of nasalis
flares nostrils
what is the action of platysma
depress mandible, tenses skin of lower face and neck
What is the course of the facial n
exits brainstem and enters the internal acoustic meatus then courses laterally between cochlea and semicircular canals then bends posterioinferiorly to course along the posterior wall of the middle ear
