detects changes in CO2 (and O2)

innervated by herings nerve (branch of CN9)
Facial vein anastomoses via Angular vein with dorsal nasal vein.
This anastomoses is extremely important because?
This anastomoses is extremely important since this allows a direct connection to Cavernous sinus, through which, infections eg: from a furuncle on the lip, may get into skull
Facial vein anastomoses via ________ With _______. Allows direction connection with ______
Facial vein anastomoses via Angular vein With dorsal nasal vein. allows a direct connection to Cavernous sinus
Tic Douloureux

Trigeminal neuralgia
disorder of unknown etiology (cause) associated with intractable pain along the 3 branches of trigeminal nerve but especially along maxillary and mandibular
nerves. A simple trigger such as touch, cold or hot can start the pain.
Injury to ______ nerve leads to
paralysis of ________ (skin falls
away from the neck by folds)
facial nerve
platysma
Bell's Palsy?
Facial n paralysis
unilatral loss of muscle tone to the face (facial droop)
effect of botulinum toxin?
paralysis - used to treat wrinkles

aka cricothyrotomy - used in emergencies
puncture thyroid cartiledge to ventilate patient
tracheotomy?
upper tracheotomy?
lower tracheotomy?
done lower on the neck than coniotomy - above the sternal notch

Phrenic nerve origin and location relative to scalene gap?
C3-C5 - injury here results in loss of ability to breathe

Trapezius M innervation?
Innervation:
spinal root of Accessory nerve (CNXI) = motor
and C3-C4 (propioception) = sensory
Fnx & Innervation:
Sternocleidomastoid M
Function: unilateral contraction turns the head
to opposite side and bends it ipsilaterally.
Bilateral contraction: lifts the head.
Also functions in respiration.

Innervation: CN-XI, C2-C3
Congenital Torticollis
Fibromatosis (fibrous tissue tumor) of Sternocleidomastoid M.
Head turns to the side and face away from the affected side.
Leads to stifness of the neck due to fibrosis and shortening of the sternocleidomastoid.
