Q

weakness of the right side of the face, unable to wrinkle the skin on the right forehead, unable to flare right nostril, raise corner of the right side of mouth, red eyes. where is the likely site of nerve damage

A

stylomastoid foramen

this is Bell’s palsy
lost SVE to muscles of facial expression

you have the red eye b/c you lost the facial expression muscle orbicularis oculi

Q

what is the cause of ptosis, down and out eye, and dilated pupil eyeball

A

posterior cerebral artery aneurysm pushing on the oculomotor –> so it affects GVE-P first

loss of levator superioris
loss of oculomotor

there is no pupillary sparing so that means its not diabetic neuropathy

not edinger-westphal b/c that would just be parasympathetics

not stroke within met encephalon that would be mesencephalon

uncal herniation would cause these symptoms

Q

broken hyoid bone can injure what nerve below the hyoid?

what are the symptoms

A

internal laryngeal (branch off superior laryngeal) nerve is damaged

Loss of cough reflex on the side of the lesioned nerve (afferent limb is the internal branch)

NOT atrophy of tongue musculature b/c that is hypoglossal

NOT impaired taste to the posterior tongue (1/3) b/c that is CN IX

Not loss of the gag reflex (because this is in by 9 and out by 10 specifically the vagal pharyngeal branches)

Q

auriculotemporal nerve is compressing an artery because of a tumor. so which region/structure is most at risk of becoming ischemic

A

meninges of middle cranial fossa

NOT external ear b/c major blood supply is the superficial temporal, posterior auricular

NOT mandibular teeth b/c that is inferior alveolar artery off the maxillary artery

NOT temporalis b/c anterior and posterior deep temporal

Not upper lip b/c not infraoribital artery or facial artery

Q

which of the following is a correct pairing of embryologic and adult structure?
ectoderm-lens
innner layer of optic cup- pigmented epithelium
neural ectoderm- sclera
optic stalk - CN III
Pharygneal arch 2 - superior oblique

A

surface ectoderm –> lens

Pharygneal arch 2 - superior oblique– > no doesn’t come from arches

Q

fracture of internal acoustic meatus

what structure is most affected by this
auricle of ear
pharyngotympanic tube
saccule 
tensory tympani
tympanic membrane
A

saccule ***
–> organ containing otolith and innervated by CN VIII

not auricle of ear–> innervated by lots of things (greater auricle, vagus, temporal, facial)

not pharyngotympanic tube–> glossopharyngeal

tensor tympanic–> V3
-hyperacusis

tympanic membrane CN V and X externally, CN IX internally
