Nasal Cavity, Palate and Ear Flashcards
4 external nose bones
- frontal
- Nasal
- Maxillae
- Nasal septum
3 external nose cartilages
- Lateral
- alar
- septal
what is the structure that is the boundary between the nasal cavity and pharynx
choanae
Middle nasal concha
Middle nasal concha
(these are made up of what bone)
ethmoid
what are the 4 paranasal sinuses
- frontal
- Ethmoidal
- sphenoidal
- Maxillary
what sinus gets clogged the most
maxillary
anterior Nasal mucosa innervation
Opthalmic nerve (V1)
posterior Nasal mucosa innervation
Maxillary nerve (V2)
Blood supply to nasal cavity (3)
- Facial
- Ophthalmic
- Sphenopalatine
The hard palate is (what to the soft)
anterior
what bones make up the hard palate (2)
- Maxillae
2. Palatine
3 foreman of hard palate
- Incisive
- Greater
- Lesser
what is the one muscle of the soft palate that is not innervated by vagus
-what is it innervated by
Tensor veli palatini maxillary nerve (V2)
do the tonsils have multiple arteries
yes
The adenoids are in what cavity
nasophayrnx
what separates the external and middle ear
tympanic membrane
Cerumen is AKA
ear wax
shape of tympanic membrane
cone (because it attaches to malluis)
what innervated the outer surface of the tympanic membrane
Auriculotemporal nerve (Branch of: mandibular)
What innervates Inner surface of tympanic membrane
Tympanic nerve (Branch of: glossopharageal)
Ear: Connection to Nasopharynx
Auditory tube
Otitis Media AKA
middle ear infection
Mastoiditis where is the source of the infection
middle ear
what muscle and nerve that innervates it will cut down on loud sounds by decreasing the movement of the malleus
- Tensor tynpani
- nerve: mandibular
(don’t forget, there is a stepedius muscle that does the same thing, innervated by “nerve to stepedius” CN:7)
