Head and Neck Anatomy Flashcards
What terminology is an opening or passage
Foramen
What terminology is a projection or extension
Process
What terminology is a bony depression
Fossa
How many bones does the skull have
22 which may be single or paired
How may cranial and facial bones are in the skull
8 cranial and 14 facial
What foramina does the superior orbital fissure run through
trigeminal nerve (V1), first division (Ophthalmic)
What foramina does the foramen rotundum run through
trigeminal nerve (V2) second division (Maxillary)
What foramina does the foramen ovale run through
trigeminal nerve (V3) third division (mandibular)
Which cranial nerve controls sense of smell
I Olfactory
Which cranial nerve controls sense of sight
II optic
Which cranial nerve controls eye muscle
IV trochlear
Which cranial nerve controls ophthalmic, maxillary, and mandibular divisions
Trigeminal
which cranial nerve controls muscles of facial expressions, taste (anterior 2/3 of tongue via chorda tympani), sublingual and submandibular salivary glands (parasympathetic)
VII facial
which cranial nerve controls sense of balance and hearing
VIII Vestibulocochlear
which cranial nerve control taste and sensation for the posterior 1/3 of tongue and parasympathetic innervation of the Parotid Gland
IX Glassopharyngeal
which cranial nerve controls the smooth muscles and Glands of the body, cardiac muscle
X Vagus
which cranial nerve controls the trapezius, sternocleidomastoid, Pharynx, and Larynx
XI Accessory
which cranial nerve controls the muscles of the tongue
XII Hypoglossal
What are the 3 major branches of the Trigeminal nerve
V1: Ophthalmic
V2: Maxillary
V3: Mandibular
What are the parts of the Temporomandibular joint
Temporal bone
Mandible
Articular disc
Capsule
Which part of the TMJ is the mandibular fossa, glenoid fossa or articular fossa
Temporal bone
What part is also called the condyle
mandible
This part of the TMJ is a fibrous pad of dense collagen tissue prevents bone to bone contact, divides joint into upper and lower synovial cavities thickest at the posterior, thinner in the center moves with condyle under normal function
Capsule
What is hypomobility from trauma, disease, bruxism
Trismus
Which muscles make up the floor of the mouth
Mylohyoid
What carries blood to the heart and what carries blood away from the heart
Veins
Arteries
Three major branches of the external carotid artery
- Maxillary: teeth, muscles of mastication, eat
- Lingual: tongue, floor of mouth
- Facial: muscles of facial expressions, lips, eyelids, soft palate, throat
Veins run with arteries and often have the same name, an exception to this in the head and neck is what
Jugular vein, which runs with the carotid artery
This is found near the pterygoid muscles, maxillary tuberosity, and sphenoid bone. Drains to form the maxillary veins
Pterygoid plexus
structures which drain into the plexus include the teeth, muscles of mastication, buccinators, nose and palate
Pterygoid plexus
This plexus may be pierced through improper angulation of the needle during the administration of a PSA block. Hematoma may develop as a result
Pterygoid plexus
A sinus containing venous blood located on each side of the body of the sphenoid bone, near the base of the brain, behind the bridge of the nose
Cavernous sinus
Fetal pressure on the inferior vena cava could cause what?
Orthostatic hypotension (drop in blood pressure due to a sudden change of posture)
Lymph node groups
Submental nodes
Submandibular nodes
Deep cervical nodes
Which nodes drains fluid from the mandibular incisors, tip of tongue, midline of lip, chin and floor of mouth
Submental nodes
Which nodes drains the submental nodes and remaining teeth
May or may not include 3rd molars
Submandibular
Which nodes drains the submandibular nodes, 3rd molars and the wall of the throat
Deep cervical nodes
infection impact upon nodal sequence
- Primary nodes
- Secondary nodes
- Tertiary nodes
What is the first node affected by a disease process
Primary nodes
