what does the external carotid artery supply
most structures external to the cranium
internal carotid artery enters
through carotid canal

from supratrochlear notch
to muscles and skin of forehead, scalp and superior conjectiva
what do the internal and external carotid arteries branch from
common carotid arteries
how many cranial nerves are there
12 pairs
CN 1
olfactory N
sensory
sense of smell
CN 2
optic N
sensory
ability to see
CN 3
oculomotor N
motor
controls the muscles of the eye
CN 4
trochlear N
motor
controls the muscles of the eye
CN 5
trigeminal N
both
motor functions of mastification
3 parts of trigeminal nerve
V1) ophthalmic N
V2) maxillary N
V3) mandibular N
CN 6
abducens
motor
controls extra ocular muscles
CN 7
Facial
both
all muscles of facial expression
provides sensory information to the nasal cavity
partial sense of taste
CN 8
vestibulocochlear
sensory
hearing and balance
CN 9
glossopharyngeal N
both
controls the salivary glands in the cheek
controls muscles of the pharynx
provides posterior part of tongue w/ taste
CN 10
vagus
both
helps innervate portions of the viscera
CN 11
accessory N
motor
motor nerve for SCM and trapezius
CN 12
hypoglossal N
motor
controls all the muscles of the tongue
sensory, motor, both acronym
some say marry money but my brother says big boobs matter most
acronym for cranial nerves
oh oh oh, to tough and feel very good velvet, actual heaven
what are the muscles of the eye
superior rectus
medial rectus
inferior rectus
lateral rectus
superior oblique
inferior oblique
levator palpebrae superioris
superior rectus actions
primary: elevation
secondary: ADD and medial rotation
medial rectus actions
primary: ADD
inferior rectus actions
primary: depression
secondary: ADD and lateral rotation
lateral rectus actions
primary: ABD
superior oblique actions
primary: depression and ABD
secondary: medial rotation
inferior oblique actions
primary: elevation and ABD
secondary: lateral rotation
levator palpebrae superioris action
elevates superior eyelid
nerve rule for muscles of the eye
all innervated by oculomotor N (CN3)
lateral rectus innervated by abducens N (CN6)
superior oblique innervated by trochlear (CN 4)
nerve rule abbreviations
LR6 and SO4
what muscle depressed the eye
superior oblique
what muscle elevates the eye
inferior oblique
what happens with paralysis of ocular muscles
double vision
what can spread infection in the neck
fascia of the neck
what happens if the mouth gets infected
it can spread through the fascia
pretracheal fascia
connects mouth fascia to the heart
where is the platysma located
in the superficial fascia
anterior triangle of the neck boundaries
lateral: SCM
floor: pretracheal fascia
anterior triangle contents
suprahyoid
infrahyoid
common carotid a
internal jugular v
CN 7,9, 10, 11, 12
ansa cervicalis
posterior triangle of the neck boundaries
medial: SCM
posterior: trapezius
floor: clavicle
posterior triangle of the neck contents
inferior belly of omohyoid
branches of subclavian a and v
external jugular v
CN 11
branches of cervical and brachial plexus
root of neck contents
apical lungs
subclavian a and v
vagus
phrenic
sympathetic trunk
trachea
esophagus
what breaks when you strangle someone
hyoid bone
adam’s apple
laryngeal prominence on thyroid cartilage
what happens when SCM is damaged
the spinal accessory n is damaged (CN11)
results it torticollis
what is torticollis
damage to SCM
will till the head to the opposite side of the injury
suprahyoid muscles
mylohyoid
geniohyoid
stylohyoid (split by digastric tendon)
digastric
mylohyoid muscle
suprahyoid muscle
O: mandible
I: hyoid bone via median tendon
Inn: mylohyoid N (from CN V3, mandibular)
A: tightens and elevates oral floor, draws hyoid bone forward, assists in opening mandible and moving it side to side
