What does the petrous portion of the temporal bone hold?

Middle and inner ear.

Explain how a CN6 Palsy with papilledema can occur?

CN 6 runs over the ridge of the petrous portion and is more susceptible to increased ICP.

What are the signs and symptoms of CN6 Palsy?

Horizontal diplopia and papilledema.

The optic foramen/optic canal/optic nerve runs through this bone?

Lesser wing of sphenoid

What passes through the Foramen Rotundum?

Maxillary (V2 of CN5)

What passes through the Foramen Ovale?

Mandibular (V3 of CN5)

What passes through the foramen spinosum?

Middle meningeal artery.

What passes through the Superior Orbital Fissure?

CN3, 4 and 6. V1 of CN5 (ophthalmic)

What can happen with the ethmoid air cells?

Infection in sinus can get through here to eye.

What nerve can get affected in a blow out fracture?

Infraorbital nerve in cheek.

What is the thinnest bone in the medial wall of the orbit?

Ethmoid bone (lamina papyracea)

What is the horizontal dimension of the orbital margin?

4cm

What is the vertical dimension for the orbital margin?

3.5cm

How deep is the orbital margin?

4.5cm

What goes through the optic canal AND A.O.Z.

Optic nerve and ophthalmic nerve

What goes through the superior orbital fissure ABOVE the AOZ

Lacrimal, frontal and trochlear nerves.


Superior ophthalmic vein.

What goes through the superior orbital fissure AND AOZ

CN3, nasocicilary (V1) and CN6 (abducens)

What goes through inferior orbital fissure BELOW AOZ

infraorbital nerve (V2), infraorbital artery and inferior ophthalmic vein.

What is the function of sinuses?

Lighten the skull and add resonance to the voice.

What are the signs of orbital cellulitis?

Double vision, infects EOMS, proptosis.


Looks like swollen red eyelid.


Infection gets in orbit, has easy access to brain.

What is the periorbita?

Outermost tissue that covers bones. Thickens to form AOZ. Carries blood supply to bones.

What is the orbital septum continuous with?

Rim of orbit and goes to tarsal plate. It's circular.

What are two functions of the orbital septum?

Holds fat in place and barrier against infection.

What is the function of the muscle pulleys and check ligaments?

Stabilizes muscles and prevent overreaction (especially MR)

What is found inferiorly that supports the globe?

Suspensory ligaments of Lockwood.

What is a barrier to infection of the globe?

Tenon's capsule.

What is the sarcolemma?

Plasma membrane that surrounds each of the muscle fibres and passes action potentials along the cell to stimulate muscles.

Is myosin thicc or thin?

dum thiccccc

Actin is thicc or thin?

thin

Where do troponin and tropomyosin lie?

within grooves of actin

What is the A band?

Myosin fibre with some actin

What is the H zone?

Central zone, only contains myosin

What is the I band?

Light, made of actin only

What is the Z line?

bisects I band attachment for actin

What are two characteristics of EOMs?

Denser blood supply and densely innervated. This allows for finer motor control, high velocity of movement accuracy.

What is the global layer of EOM responsible for?

Movement

What is the orbital layer of EOM responsible for?

Stabilizes and acts as a muscle pulley.

Which two muscles also attach to the dural sheath of the optic nerve?

MR and SR

What is the order of the muscles from inner to outer on the spiral of tillaux?

MILS

What is the origin, insertion, pathway and innervation for MR

O: OAZ/optic nerve sheath


I: 5.5mm from limbus


Path: Parallel medial wall-->CT pulley then follows globe.


Nerve: CN 3 (inferior division)

O, I, Path, Nerve for LR

O: AOZ/greater wing of sphenoid.


I: 6.9mm from limbus


Path: Lateral wall then CT pulley, then follows globe.


Nerve: CN 6 (Abducens)

O, I, Path, Nerve for SR:

O: AOZ/optic nerve sheath


I: 7.7mm from limbus


Path: Beneath levator, they share a sheath. Parallels roof then CT Pulley then follows globe.


Nerve: CN3 (superior)

O, I, Path, Nerve for IR:

O: AOZ


I: 6.5mm from limbus


Path: IR sheath-->Inferior tarsal plate.


Nerve: CN3 (inferior)

O, I, Path, Nerve for SO:

O: Anatomical: Lesser wing of sphenoid Effective: trochlea


I: Super posterior lateral position on globe.


Path: Passes anterior to trochlea, poster to insertion. **Lies inferior to SR**


Nerve: CN 4



O, I, Path, Neve for IO:

O: Medial orbital floor (maxillary)


I: Posterior lateral inferior globe


Path: Medial inferior orbit to lateral globe.


Nerve: CN 3 (inferior)

What is the function of the CT pulleys?

Act as functional origin of the muscles.

What are three functions of CT pulleys?

May changes the function of the rectus muscles in tertiary gaze.


Refine coordination of muscle movements


Prevents sideslip of the rectus muscles when the eye moves to secondary gaze.
