Lecture 1 Head and Neck Flashcards
1
Q
- Why are horse and cattle’s heads elongated past the orbit?
- what is the result of not having much subcutaneous tissue on the head?
A
- It increases surface area for muscles like more muscles of mastication
- Allows greater area for teeth to be implanted
- If have blunt force trauma, will have laceration on skin because they don’t have tissue to cushion impact
2
Q
what is the difference between a calf skull and adult skull’s shape?
A
- Calf skull is dome shaped
- Adult is pyramidal shaped
3
Q
- What is this a skull of?

- what bone is it a part of
- What is this space called
- what muscle is found here
A
- ox
- temporal line
- on frontal bone

Q
- 3
- 4
- what is special about cattle’s upper teeth
A
- 3- facial tuberosity
- 4- cornual process
- only found on horned cattle
- Ruminants do not have upper incisors or canines
5
Q
- What is this a skull of?
- what is it
- what muscle originates from here
- what is it
- what is special regarding the orbit in large animals
A
- Horse
- facial crest
- Masseter muscle origin from facial crest
- nasoincisive notch
- orbit is completely bony
6
Q
- If you want to provide regional anesthesia to the front of the face where would you want to do it?
- how do you approach it?
A
- infraorbital foramen
- Go from rostral point of facial crest up to the nasoincisive notch, and halfway point Is the infraorbital foramen

Q
3- what would be here?
4
A
3- Cornual process will be here if horned
4- Facial tuberosity
9
Q
- what is different between cornual process on small ruminants vs cattle?
- what bone are they on?
A
- Horns are more rostrally located in smaller ruminants
- frontal bone
