Q

Pathway of V1 sensory branch

A

Peripheral processes trasmit sensation from sense neurons→ through SOF→ through Cavernous Sinus
Synaspse @ NCB in Trigeminal Ganglion→ then transmits central processes Central Processes transmit sensation to Principap Sensory Nucleus and Spinal nucleus of V From here, these central processes will send info to cortex for processing so you can tell where the sensation is located

Q

Location on Pregang NCB of III

A

upper brain stem in oculomotor nucleus = location of NCB

29
Q

Pathway of CN III

A

origintaes in upper brain stem in oculomotor nucleus = location of NCB→

  • emerges near median plane at jnx of midbrain and pons
  • then passes btwn posterior and superior cerebellar arteries→
  • through cavernous sinus→ through SOF of sphenoid bone: has superior and inferior branch
  • Passes w/in tendinous ring where rectus m.s originate
30
Q

Ptosis (eyelid droops), resting eye ‘down and out’ bc of unopposed action of superior oblique and lateral rectus, pupil is fixed and dialated

A

CC to oculumotor

31
Q

Cause of ‘down and out’ eye

A

unopposed action of superior oblique and lateral rectus

32
Q

Location on Pregang NCB of Trochlear IV

A

Neurons in Trochlear nucles in midbrain of brainstem

33
Q

Only nerve to go Dorsally over the midbrain

A

Trochlear

34
Q

Path of Trochlear IV

A

-Neurons in Trochlear nucleus in midbrain of brainstem
-goes dorsally (only one) from midbrain
-enter cavernous sinus→ SOF of sphenoid
-passes OUTSIDE tendinous ring
Muscles: Superior Oblique m.

35
Q

Superior Oblique m. innervated by

A

Trochlear IV

36
Q

Can’t look down when eye is adducted→ causes Diplopia d/t cavernous sinus injury

A

CC to Trochlear IV

37
Q

lateral rectus = abducts the eyeball innervated by:

A

Abducent VI

38
Q

Location of NCB of Abducent VI

A

NCB in the abducent nucleus and emerge at median plane near medulla/pons

39
Q

Pathway of Abducent VI

A

NCB in the abducent nucleus and emerge at median plane near medulla/pons→
-pass through Cavernous Sinus and SOF of sphenoid
-passes w/in tendinous ring
Muscle: Lateral Rectus Muscle

40
Q

Horizontal diplopia (double vision), imparied eye Abduction, eye turns medially

A

CC to Abducent

41
Q

← straight that way

testing:

A

Right Lateral Rectus (VI)

Left Medial rectus (III)

42
Q

→straight that way

testing:

A

Right Medial rectus (III)

-Left lateral recuts (VI)

43
Q

Patient look Laterally first

-patient looks up =

A

Superior Rectus

44
Q

Patient look Laterally first

-patient looks down =

A

Inferior Rectus

45
Q

Patient Look Medially first (Goofy one)

-patient looks up=

A

Inferior Oblique

46
Q

Patient Look Medially first (Goofy one)

-patient looks down=

A

Superior Oblique

47
Q

Truly testing Superior Recuts muscle CN III

A

align axis of gaze with muscle thus have them look laterally to be in line with the long line of the super rectus muscle—thus we wipe out help from inferior oblique muscle (it can’t help when eye is in this position)

48
Q

Truly testing the Inferior rectus muscle

A

align axis w/ muscle so that is’ lateral then you know you knock out help from Superior Oblique
-then we can test the ability of the inferior rectus muscle to depress the eye

49
Q

Action of Superior Oblique muscle (IV)

A

depression, abduction, intorsion

50
Q

Truly testing Superior obliuque muscle

A

aling w/ long axis of muscle by having patient looking medially so that the tension of Superior oblique is aligned and now can depress up eyeball towards nose

51
Q

Truly testing Inferior rectus

A

patient looks medially and then can they look up. If they can then we know that inferior oblique is in good condition to elevate the eye

52
Q

*Ptosis
Explanation: paralysis of Levator Palpebrae Sup.
*A resting eye that’s ‘Down and Out’
Explanation: paralysis of Medial Rectus and Superior Rectus→ unopposed action of lateral rectus m and Superior Oblique m.

Explanation of CC IV injury manifestations

A

Explanation: paralysis of Superior Oblique m.

Explanation: (pt tilts head to shoudler opposite affected eye)
Injured eye is extroted, tiliting head toward opp side of injury→intorsion of normal eye→ realignment of gaze

A

Cavernous sinus injury

60
Q
