Q

why is the loose areolar tissue (supaneurotic space) a dangerous space?

A

Q

what is black eye (peri-orbital ecchymosis)?

A
  • eccymosis (purple patches) develop bc of extravasatioon of blood into subcutaneous tissue and skin of eyelids and surrounding regions
  • results from injury to scalp and/or forehead due to absence of bony attachment of frontal belly or apoenurosis
20
Q

____ usually occurs following delivery and injury and head trauma

A

scalp hematoma

21
Q

caput succedameum

A

subcutaneous hematoma, crosses temporal and nuchal lines and can cause blue eye

22
Q

subgaleal hematoma

A
  • hematoma within potential space between the galea aponeurosis and skull periosteum
  • crosses over the sutures and limited laterally by the superior temporal line and posteriorly by the superior nuchal line
23
Q

cephalhematoma

A

subperiosteal and therefore bound by the suture line (localized to a specific bone)

24
Q

boundaries of the face

A

extends superiorly to hair line, inferiorly to chin and base of mandible and on each side to auricle
-forehead is common to both scalp and face

25
Q

common features of facial muscles

A
  • subcutaneous
  • bony origin and pull on skin
  • develop from mesoderm in second pharyngeal arch
  • arranged around facial orifices to serve as sphincter and dilator for specific facial expressions
  • intermingled
  • supplied by facial nerve
26
Q

orbicularis oris

A
  • encircles the mouth within lips (intrinsic)
  • continue with surrounding muscles (extrinsic)
  • function: sphincter of mouth closes or purses lips; important during articulation
27
Q

buccinator (L. trumpeter) origin

A

upper fibers: alveolar process of maxilla opposite molar teeth
lower fibers: alveolar process of mandible opposite molar teeth
middle fibers: from petrygomandibular raphe

28
Q

insertion of buccinator

A

upper: into upper lip
lower: into lower lip
middle: decussate so upper fibers into lower lip and upper into upper lip (modiolus)

29
Q

action of buccinator

A

smiling, chewing, speech

  • prevents accum of food into vestibule
  • prevents tilting of teeth in outward direction
  • resists distention (when blowing)
  • speech
30
Q

paralysis of buccinator and orbicularis oris causes

A
  1. protrusive teeth
  2. accum of food
  3. drooling
  4. slurred speech
31
Q

3 parts of orbicularis oculi

A
  1. palpebral: from medial palp ligament (MPL) and extends within eyelids–gently closes eyes
  2. lacrimal part: from lacrimal bone and continues thru eyelid–drainage of tears from lacrimal gland laterally to lacrimal sac medially
  3. orbital part: from MPL overlying orbital margin–tightly closes eyelids to protect eyeballs
32
Q

when all three parts of the orbicularis oculi contract–

A

the eyes are fimly closed

33
Q

corrugator supercilii

A
  • origin: medial end of superciliary arch
  • insertion: skin superior to middle of supra-orbital margin and superciliary arch
  • action: draws eyebrow medially and inferiorly, creating vertical wrinkles above nose
34
Q

procerus

A
  • origin: fascia aponeurosis covering nasal bone and lateral nasal cartilage
  • insertion: skin of inferior forehead, between eyebrows
  • action: depresses medial end of eyebrow; wrinkles skin over dorsum of nose (conveying dislike)
35
Q

risorius

A

smile widely

  • origin: parotid fascia and buccal skin (highly variable)
  • insertion: angle of the mouth
  • action: parts of dilators of mouth; smile widely
36
Q

what makes up the quadratus labii muscle

A

levator labii superioris alaque nasi
levator labii superioris
zygomaticus minor

37
Q

levator labii superioris alaque nasi

A

medial fibers of quadratus labii

  • arise from upper part of frontal process of maxilla and passing obliquely downward and lateralward divides into two slips to upper lip and nasal cartilage
  • action: raises upper lip and widens nostril
38
Q

levator labii superioris

A

intermediate of quadratus

  • arises from lower margin of orbit immediately above the infraorbital foramen and inserted into upper lip
