Trigeminal Nerve Flashcards
T/F. CNV is the largest cranial nerve
T
CNV has afferent and efferent fibers
Afferent = sensory (from semilunar ganglion)
Efferent = motor
Mesencephalic (third root) = proprioception of TMJ
Divisions of CNV (3)
Ophthalmic Nerve
Maxillary Nerve
Mandibular Nerve
Smallest division of CNV
CNV1 (Ophthalmic)
Division of CNV that exits through superior orbital fissure
CNV1 (Ophthalmic)
Purely sensory division of CNV
CNV1 (Ophthalmic) & CNV2 (Maxillary)
Division of CNV that exits through foramen rotundum
CNV2 (Maxillary)
Largest division of CNV
CNV3 (Mandibular)
Mixed nerve division of CNV
CNV3 (Mandibular)
Division of CNV that exits through foramen ovale
CNV3 (Mandibular)
Nerve that branches off before CNV1 exits the superior orbital fissure
Nervous tentorii (innervates dura mater of the brain)
Branches of CN V1 (3)

Frontal
Nasociliary
Innervation of lacrimal nerve
lacrimal gland and conjunctiva
(SKL: smallest nerve)
Branches of Frontal nerve (2)
