Neuro Exam Orbit Flashcards
Roof of orbit
orbital plate of frontal and lesser wing of spenoid
Floor of orbit
Orbital surface of maxilla, orbital surface of zygomatic, orbital process of palatine
medial wall of orbit
frontal process of maxilla, lacrimal, orbital plate of ethmoid
lateral wall of orbit
orbital surface of zygomatic, greater wing of sphenoid
Base of orbit
orbital margin-outline/surrounds the opening to the eye socket
Apex of the orbit
optic canal and foramen through the lesser wing of the spenoid
optic foramen or canal
optic nerve (CNII) and opthalmic artery
superior orbital fissure
occulomotor nerve (CNIII), trochlear nerve (CNIV), abducens nerve (CN VI), opthalmic division of trigeminal (V1), and superior opthalmic vein
inf orbital fissure
infraorbital NAV (nerve of maxillary division of trigeminal-CN V2) and inf. opthalmic vein
supraorbital foramen
sup. orbital NAV (nerve is of the opthalmic division of CNV, V1
infraorbital canal
the nerve runs through the infraorbital groove into the infraorbital canal and out the front of the face through the infraorbital foramen. Infraorbital NAV (nerve is max divisions of the trigeminal CN V2)
Ant. ethmoidal foramen
on the medial wall of orbit /sup border of ethmoid bone; ant. ethmoidal nerve (nasocilliary- branch of V1) runs through this foramen
Post ethmoidal foramen
medial wall of orbit/sup border of the orbital part of ethmoid- post ethmoidal nerve runs through (nasocilliary-branch of V1)
Canal for nasolacrimal duct
nasolacrimal sulcus/fossa
Zygomaticofacial foramen
Zygomaticofacial NAV–(considered with obital region due to the transmission of) zygotmatic nerve through the inferior orbital fissure into the orbital cavity and out the foramina.
Zygomaticotemporal foramen
Opposite the Zygomaticofacial foramen-
Considered with the orbital region-transmts zygomatical facial n. (of maxillary division V2)
CNII name and location
optic, behind the globe of the eye
CNIII
occulomotor- innervates every muscle except sup oblique and lateral rectus
