corresponds to the internal end of the superior orbital fissure

21
Q

Where the optic canal is located?

A
  • the small wing
22
Q

The optic canal gives away to?

A
  • the optic nerve and ophthalmic artery
23
Q

Where the ZINN tendon is inserted?

A
  • the suboptic tubercle: Between the optic hole and the wide part of the superior fissure
24
Q

Where The superior orbital fissure is located?

A
  • Between the Greater and lesser wing
25
Q

What is the relation between ZINN ring and SOF

A

SOF is divided by the common tendinous ring

26
Q

What passes by the SOF

A
  • Inside the ZINN ring:
    • nasal nerve
    • occulumotor nerve
    • Abducens nerve
  • Outside the ZINN:
    • trochlear nerve
    • Frontal nerve
    • Lacrimal nerve
27
Q

What is the role of Inferior orbital fissure?

A
  • connects the orbit with the pterygo-palatine fossa.
28
Q

What is the role of Anterior and posterior ethmoidal holes?

A

Ethmoidal arteries and nerves ( Anterior and posterior)

29
Q

The vascularization of the Orbit

A
  • Ophtalmic artery +++: ICA
  • Infra-Orbital artery: ECA
30
Q

The venous return of the orbit?

A

Ophtalmic veins

31
Q

What are the three segments of Ophthalmic artery?

A
  • Intracranial
  • Intracanalicular
  • Intraorbital
32
Q

The origin of ophthalmic artery?

A
  • Anteromedial part of the internal carotid artery.
  • Above the anterior clinoid process
33
Q

The relation between the ophthalmic artery and the ophthalmic nerve?

A
  • Intracranial: the artery connects with the underside of the optic nerve (separated by the dura mater).
  • Intraductal: the artery travels below the optic nerve
  • Intraorbital:
    • Lateral optic : The artery at the lower part of the nerve
    • Optic part: the artery crosses the optic nerve
    • Medio-Optic: the artery is medial to the nerve.
34
Q

What is the length of Intracranial segment?

A

3-15 mm

35
Q

Where the orbital artery terminates?

A

the superior-internal angle of the orbit

36
Q

What are the two groupes of Collateral branches of ophthalmic artery?

A
  • Optic arteries
  • Destinated to the appendages
37
Q

What are the optic arteries?

A
  • Central retinal arteries
  • Short and long ciliary arteries
  • Optic nerve arteries
38
Q

What are the branches Destinated to the appendages?

A
  • Supraorbital arteries
  • Ethmoidal
  • Lacrimal
  • palpebral
  • muscular
39
Q

What are the two groups of the otic nerve arteries?

A
  • From intracanal segment
  • From Intraorbital segment
40
Q

What is supplied by the Supraorbital artery?

A
