Q

What is trigeminal neuralgia (tic doloureaux)?

A

Q

What supples the later surface of the neck and what is its subdivision?

A

Supraclavicular Nerve (C3, C4)

-medial, intermediate, and lateral supraclavicular nerve

20
Q

Cervical Plexus carries motor fibers to what muscles? What do these motor fibers arise from?

A
  • infrahyoid (strap) muscles

- ansa cervicalis

21
Q

What are the parts of the Ansa Cervicalis

A

superior root and inferior root

22
Q

Ansa Cervicalis supplies what?

A

three of the four infrahyoid muslces: sternohyoid, sternothyroid, and omohyoid

23
Q

The fourth infrahyoid muscl, thyrohyoid, is innervated by what?

A

C1 fibers through the hypoglossal nerve

24
Q

Where does the phrenic nerve originate from?

A

C3, C4, and C5

25
Q

Where does the phrenic nerve innervate? (motor and sensory)

A
motor= diaphragm
sensory= some of the membranes of the thorax and abdomen
26
Q

Where could the phrenic nerve be found?

A

in the neck lying on the anterior surface of the anterior scalene muscle. It runs vertically down the muscle and into the thorax

27
Q

Platysma’s orgin

A

superficial fascia over the pectoralis major and deltoid muscles

28
Q

Platysma’s Insertion

A

lower border of the mandible and the angle of the mouth

29
Q

Platysma’s Nerve

A

Cerivical branch of facial nerve (CN VII)

30
Q

Playtsma’s function

A

depresses the mandible and draws down the corner of the mouth

31
Q

Sternocleidomastoid Origin

A

sternal head from the front of the manubrium, clavicular head from the medial third of the clavicle

32
Q

Sternocleidomastoid Insertion

A

lateral surface of mastoid process, lateral half of the superior nuchal line

33
Q

Sternocleidomastoid nerve

A

accessory nerve (CN XI)

34
Q

Sternocleidomastoid function

A

cheif flexor of the head

35
Q

What is Torticollis (wryneck)

A
  • pathological contraction of SCM

- The head is tilted toward, and the face turned away from the affect side

36
Q

What are the types of torticollis and describe them.

A
  • congenital torticollis: results from a fibrous tissue tumor which develops at or shortly before birth
  • muscular torticollis= due to birth injury
  • spasmodic torticollis= occurs in adults and is due to abnormal tonicity.
37
Q

Trapezius origin

A

external occipital protuberance, ligamentumnuchae, and the spinous processes of the 7th cervical and all thoracic vertebrae

38
Q

Trapezius insertion

A

the lateral third of the clavicle, spine of the scapula, and the acromion process

39
Q

trapezius nerve

A

accessory nerve (CN XI) and C3 and C4 from the cervical plexus

40
Q

trapezius function

A

the upper portion elevates, the middle portion retracts, and the lower portion depresses the scapula

41
Q

What does the external jugular vein drain?

A

face and scalp (contains large amount of cerebral blood)

42
Q

Where does the external jugular vein empty in to?

A

subclavian vein

43
Q

What are the tiributaries of the external jugular vein?

A
retromandibular vein
posterior auricular 
posterior external jugular
anterior jugular
transverse cervical
suprascapular
44
Q

What is the clinical note of the prominent external jugular vein

A

when venous plexus is normal, the external jugular vein is invisible, or nearly

  • in congestive heart failure, or obstruction of the superior vena cava, it becomes very prominent throughout its length
  • opera singers and bagpipe players develop prominent external jugular veins due to increase intrathoracic pressure during singing or practice
45
Q

What are the boundaries of the posterior triangle?

A
