16
Q

Blood supply of the nasal cavity

A

arise branches from the both internal and externall carotid artery.

17
Q

Arteries originating from branches of external carotid artery:

A

Sphenopalatine artery
- Greater palatine artery
- Superior labial artery
- Lateral nasal artery

18
Q

Arteries originating from branches of internal carotid artery:

A

Anterior ethmoidal artery
- Posterior ethmoidal artery

19
Q

Sphenopalatine artery

A

largest vessel supplying the nasal cavity
and ethers via sphenopalatine foramen.

20
Q

The posterior lateral nasal branches

A

1.Posterior lateral nasal branches:
Supply large part of lateral nasal wall
Anastomose anteriorly with branches from anterior and posterior ethmoidal arteries, and lateral nasal arteries

  1. Posterior septal branches:
    Contribute to blood supply of medial nasal wall
    One latter branch continues forward to anastomose with terminal end of greater palatine artery and septal branches of superior labial artery
21
Q

Greater Palatine Artery

A

Branch of maxillary artery
Terminal end enters nasal floor via incisive canal
Supplies anterior regions of medial nasal wall and adjacent nasal floor
Anastomoses with posterior septal branch of sphenopalatine artery

22
Q

Superior Labial Artery

A

branches from the facial artery
near the lateral end of the oral fissure
Alar branch supplies region around lateral aspect of nares
Septal branch passes into nasal cavity and supplies anterior regions of nasal septum

23
Q

The lateral nasal artery

A

branches from facial artery
contribute to blood supply of external nose
alar branches passes around lateral margin of nostrils and supply the vestibules.

24
Q

Ethmoidal Arteries

A

anterior and posterior ethmoidal artery are from ophthalmic artery

supply tye lateral nasal wall and medial nasal wall

25
Q

which artery supplies the skin and adjacent tissues of the external nose,

A

anterior ethmoidal artery

26
Q

the innervation of Olfactory region

A

Olfaction:
- Olfactory nerve

General sensation:
- Branches of ophthalmic and maxillary nerves—from the trigeminal nerve

Secretomotor (mucous glands):
- Parasympathetic fibers from facial nerve.

27
Q

innervation of anterior ethmoidal artery

A

Anterior ethmoidal nerve
Branch of ophthalmic nerve (nasociliary branch)
Accompanies anterior ethmoidal artery
Gives branches to medial and lateral nasal walls
Then continues forward and terminates as external nasal nerve which supplies skin around nares, in nasal vestibule, and on tip of nose

28
Q

The four paired sinuses

A

The ethmoidal cells
frontal sinuses
maxillary sinuses
sphenoidal sinuses

29
Q

The frontal sinuses

A

Drains onto lateral wall of middle nasal meatus
- Via frontonasal duct (continues as ethmoidal
infundibulum)

Innervation:
- Supra-orbital nerve (branch of ophthalmic nerve)

Blood supply:
- Anterior ethmoidal artery

30
Q

The ethmoidal Cells

A
  • Anterior ethmoidal cells: ethmoidal infundibulum
    or frontonasal duct
    • Middle ethmoidal cells: ethmoidal bulla or lateral
      nasal wall, just above bulla
    • Posterior ethmoidal cells: lateral wall of
      superior nasal meatus

Often erode into other bones
- Their walls may be completed by frontal,
maxillary, lacrimal, sphenoid and palatine bones

31
Q

Sphenoidal Sinuses

A

Drainage:
- Open into spheno-ethmoidal recess
- Via apertures high on anterior wall of sinus

Innervation:
- Posterior ethmoidal nerve (branch of ophthalmic nerve)
- Maxillary nerve (via orbital branches of
pterygopalatine ganglion)

Blood supply:
- Branches of pharyngeal arteries from maxillary arteries

32
Q

which bones are found in the lateral wall of nasal cavity:

A. maxilla
B. Ethmoid
C. Inferior nasal chonca
D. ALL OF THE ABOVE
