HNS Anatomy Flashcards
vertebral body +
arch
Where are the verteberal notches
between articular process and pedicle
L2 landmark
inferior aspect of lowest rib
T3 landmark
medial end of spine of scapula
Annulus fibrosus
collage type 1 and 2 to limit rotation
nucleus pulposus
gel like to resist compression
whiplash
anterior longitudinal ligament
ligaments of spine
supraspinous = tips of spinous
infraspinous = adj spinous
ligamentum flava = arch
central vs posterolateral herniation of nucleus pulposus
central = spinal cord posterolateral = spinal nerve impingement
sciatica
herniation between l5/s1
Atlas axial ligaments
transverse ligament of the atlas = part of cruciate
alar ligaments of axis to occipital condyles
jefferson fracture
occipital condyles into lateral masses of c1
what can’t u do an thoracic and lumbar
flexion extension
rotation
what is movement in vertebral column due to
superior and inferior articular process placement
what is dura of spine continuous with
inner meningeal dura in brain
prostate cancer metastases
internal iliac into vertebral plexuses
Uncal/tonsillar herniation difference
uncal temporal lobes -> loss of consciiousness
cerebellar tonsils -> cardioresp arrest
how many premolar and molars
2 and 3
what part of sphenoid makes pterion
greater wing
what is MMA made from
ECA -> maxillar
what vessel in IAM
labryinthe artery
vessel in jugular foramen
internal jugular vein
scaLP
loose areolar
periosteum
what do the vertebral arteries arise from
first part of sublcavian
go through foramen trasnvverosium of C1-C6
ant spinal artery and post spinal artery
what do vertebral arteries become and where
basilar on the ant. apsect of pons
branches of basilar
pontine
posterior cerebral
ICA branches
ACA
MCA
post comm.
most important thing in cavernous sinus
ICA
CN VI
neck compartments
vertebral
visceral
vascular
what is in vascular compartment of neck
IJV carotids CN X
suprahyoid and infrahyoid muscles
stylohyoid digastric geniohyoid myohyoid thyrohyoid omohoid sternohyoid sternothyroid
innervation of suprahyoid muscles
digastric = v3 nd VII myohyoid = v3 geniohyoid = c1 via cn xii stylohyoid = vii
innervation of infrahyoid muscles
all ansa cervicalis C1-C3
except thyrohyoid which is C1 via CN XII
post triangle of neck =
EJV subclavian artery and vein brachial plexus spinal accessory nerve phrenic nerve vagus nerve
what is in front of scalenus anterior
Carotid sheath = IJV, carotids, vagus
SC vein
Phrenic vein
what is behind scalenus anterior
brachial plexus
SC artery
where does phrenic nerve enter thorax
between sublclavian artery and vein
thyroid vasculature
superior and inf thyroid arteries = ECA and thyrocervical trunk (subclavian)
sup, middle vein = IJV
inf vein = brachiocephalic vein
what are brachial plexus cords named in relation to
axillary artery
name the brachial plexus cords
lateral
posterior
medial
what arises from each cord specifically
lat pectoral
subscapular/thoracodorsal
medial pectoral
what arises from the superior trunk
suprascapular
nerve to subclavius
why do you use carotid
easy to find rhythm time murmurs radial not felt if low blood pressure used to locate jugular vein
branches of 1st part subclavian
vertebral
internal thoracic
thyrocervical trunk
why is r IJV preferred
straighter
how do you insert IJV
between two heads of SCM and clavicle
lateral to CC at 30 degrees towards nipple
why central line
monitor CVP JVP central venous saturation delivery of toxic drugs that could cause phlebitis central feeding dialysis
complications of central line
haemothorax pneumothorax puncture CC air embolism nerve damage thrombosis infection
lymph drainage into
deep cervical along IJV
converge to form jugular lymphatic trunks
what can cause lymphoedema
infection- reactive, local, generalised
cancer = lymphoma, meta
how does lymph drain
superficial to deep
