- V, VI, VII,
3

A
IV
X
XII
4
Q
- What cranial nerve nuclei are located in the spinal cord?
A
- Spinal Accessory n. (CN XI)
5
Q
- What are the layers of the scalp and what are their contents?
A
- Skin
- Blood vessels
- Glands
- Connective tissue (Dense)
- Rich in vascular supply
- Contains nerve supply
- Aponeurosis
- Pary of occipital frontalis m.
- Loose connective tissue
- Potential space for infection
- Pericranium
- External periosteum
- NV structures for bone
6
Q
- Neurovascular supply runs in what direction
A
- Inferior to superior
7
Q
- What are the contents of the scalp proper?
A
- Skin
- Connective Tissue
- Aponeurosis
8
Q
- What areas are penetrated by a gaping wound?
A
- Thru aponeurosis
- Goes thru loose CT and pericranium
9
Q
- What areas are penetrated by a non-gaping wound?
A
- Penetrates within skin or deep connective tissue layer (but can still bleed a lot)
10
Q
- Parotid gland
A
- Goes all the way up to the temporal bone and all the way down to the mandible
- Covered in fascia (very painful when inflamed-as in cases like mumps)
- Tumors and stones can form here-need to be surgically removed
- Facial N Travels thru here but does not innervate
- GSA from auriculotemporal n and greater temporal n
- GSE: Parasympathetic Innervation via CN IX
11

A
- Buccinator m.
12
Q

A
- Retromandibular vein and external carotid a.
13

- What pharyngeal arch is this cranial nerve a derivative of?
A
- CN VII (Facial nerve)
- 2nd pharyngeal arch
14
Q
- The muscles of mastication are innervated by what cranial nerve? (what division specifically?)
- What pharyngeal arch is this cranial nerve a derivative of?
A
- CN V-Trigeminal n.
- V3-Mandibular
- 1st pharyngeal arch
15
Q
- Besides the muscles of mastication, what other muscles are innervated by the V3-Mandibular division of the Trigeminal N (CN V)?
A
- Mylohyoid m.
- Anterior belly of the digastric m.
- Tensor ms.
