Q

What are the attachments for the stylohyoid muscle? Describe this.

A

the hyoid bone and the styloid process

The stylohyoid muscle gives way to a tendon at the bottom which forks around the central tendon of digastric muslces and attaches to the hyoid bone

Q

How do stoned/ calculi in the submandibular duct tend to present?

A

As pain and swelling of the submandibular gland particullary around the time of a meal (beacuse salivating and saliva cant get out - raises pressure in the gland)

Q

How are submandibular calculi normally treated? What is the risk of this procedure and how can you tell that there was no damage post procedure?

A

Using LA and a scalpel to remove stone fron duct

Risk of damaging the lingual nerve as it hooks underneath the submandibular duct.

If the patient isnt numb on one side of tongue then no damage

Q

How can you assess if the hypoglossal nerve has been damaged during surgery?

A

Ask the patient ot stick their tongue out and if it deviates to one side then that side has been damaged

Q

What is the diff between the internal and external carotid artery in terms of the branches it gives off?

A

Internal doesnt give off any branches until in the cranial cavity whereas the external carotid gives off branches to superficial tissues as it ascends through the neck

16
Q

Does the faial artery and lingual artery run superficial or deep to the submandibular gland?

A

Facial artery = superficial

Lingual = deep

17
Q

Describe the sublingual salivary gland in terms of where it opens, ducts and types of secretion.

A

Has lots of little ducts instead of one big one

Some ducts open up into the end of the submandibular salivary gland and some onto the mucosal fold over the sublingual gland called the sublingual fold

Mucous secretions

18
Q

What part of the nervous system supplies the salvary glands (for secretion)?

A

Parasympathetic nervous system

19
Q

What does the submandibular ganglion supply?

A

The submandibular and sublingual salivary glands

20
Q
  1. What is supplied by the pterygopalatine ganglion?
A

minor salivary glands and the lacrimal glands

Note: this ganglion is on the facial nerve

21
Q

What is the chordae tympani/what does it supply?

A

Nerve that carries afferent special sensation from the anterior two-thirds of the tongue via the lingual nerve, as well as efferent parasympathetic secretomotor innervation to the submandibular and sublingual glands.

22
Q

What are the extrinsic muscles of the tongue?

A

Styloglossus

Geniohyoid

Hyoglossus

Genioglossus

23
Q

What is the origin ans insertion of the hyoglossus muscle?

A

origin = hypid bon e

insertion = side of tongue

24
Q

What is the function of the hyoglossus muscle ?

A

Lowers/depresses the tongue

25
Q

What is the nerve supply and vascular supply to the hyoglossus muscle?

A

Nerve = hypoglossal nerve

Blood supply = sublingual branch of the lingual artery and submental branch of facial artery (lingual and facial artery)

26
Q

What is the origin and insertions of the genioglossus muscles?

A

Origin = mental spine on the medial surface of the body of the mandible

Insertion - tip of tongue and hyoid bone

27
Q

What is the function of the genioglossus muscle?

A

protrudes and depresses the tongue

28
Q

What is the nerve and blood supply to the genioglossus muscle?

A

nerve = hypoglossal

blood = facial artery (submental branch) and lingual artery (sublingual branch)

29
Q

What is the origin and insertion of the geniohyoid muscles?

A

origin = Inferior mental spine

insertion = hyoid bone

30
Q

What is the function of the geniohyoid muscle?

A

pulls the hyoid bone forward when swalloing which creates space in teh pharynx for the bolus to go down

31
Q

What is the nerve supply and blood supply to the geniohyoid muscles?

A

nerve = hypoglossal

blood = sublingual branch of lingual artery

32
Q

What is the origin and insertion for the styloglossus muscle?

A

origin = styloid process

Insertion = tongue

33
Q

What is the function of the styloglossus? Why is this important

A

Retracts and elevated the tongue

This is important in early stages of swallowing - need to move bolus back

34
Q

What is the nerve supply and the action of the palatoglossus muscle?

A

nerve = vagus nerve

Action = pulls the soft palate down towards tongue

35
Q

What are the intrinsic muscles of the tongue and what are their nerve supply?

A

superior longitudinal

inferior longitudinal

vertical fibres

transverse fibres

Hypoglossal nerve

36
Q

What is the function of the intrinsic muscles of the tongue?

A

Alter the shape of the tongue

37
Q

What can a smooth tongue indicate?

A

Iron deficiency (anaemia)

38
Q

If ther is a blue tongue, what can this be a sign of?

A

prob with respiratory system

39
Q

What ganglion supplies parotid gland?

A

Otic (from glossopharyngeal nerve)
