|
Facial nerves gives rise to five terminal branches: |
Temporal Zygomatic Buccal Mandibular and Cervical branches |
|
Facial nerve sends which branch to muscles of auricle and occipitalis |
Posterior auricular |
|
Facial nerve innervates |
Facial muscles, Occipitalis and muscles of auricle (via post. auricular nerve), posterior belly of digastric and stylohyoid |
|
Trigeminal nerve provides |
Sensory innervation for skin of face |
|
Division s of trigemimal |
Ophthalmic Maxillary Mandibular |
|
Ophthalmic division supplies face as |
Supraorbital, supratrochlear,infratrochleat,external nasal and lacrimal nerves |
|
Maxillary Division supplies face as |
Zygomaticofacial, zygomaticotemporal, and infraorbital nerves. |
|
Mandibular division supplies face as |
Auricotemporal, buccal and mental nerves |
|
What are the causes and symptoms of trigeminal neuralgia (tic doulourex) |
The cause may be a brain tumor compressing the trigeminal nerve at. The symptom is marked by paroxysmal pain along the course of CN V especially radiating to the maxillary or mandibular area |
|
Main arteries of the face are |
Facial artery and Superficial temporal artery |
|
Facial artery Origin, course |
It arises from the external carotid artery just above the upper border of the hyoid bone It passes deep tho the mandible,winds around lower border of mandible and runs upward and forward on the face |
|
Facial artery gives rise to |
Neck Ascending palatine Tonsillar Glandular Submental Face Inferior labial Superior labial And lateral nasal branches |
|
Facial artery terminates as ___________ artery which ansatamoses with ___________ |
Angular Palpebral and nasal branches of the opthalmic artery to establish communication between ICA and ECA |
|
Superficial temporal artery Origin, course |
Behind the neck of mandible as the smaller terminal branch of ECA
Ascends anterior to external acoustic meatus into the scalp |
|
Which nerve does superficial temporal artery accompany? |
Auriculotemporal nerve |
|
Superficial temporal artery gives rise to |
Transverse facial artery Zygomaticotemporal Middle temporal Anterior auricular Frontal parietal |
|
Course of transverse facial artery |
Passes forward across the massester, with the zygomatic arch above and the parotid duct below |
|
Facial vein begins as ______________ with the confluence of |
Angular vein with the confluence of the supraorbital and supratrochlear veins |
|
Angular vein tributaries |
Corresponding with branches of facial artery Infraorbital and deep facial veins |
|
Facial vein drains in which two ways |
Directly into internal jugular vein Joining anterior branch of retromandibular vein to form common facial vein which then drains into IJV |
|
What is the danger area of the face |
Area of the face near the nose drained by facial veins |
|
Skin infections on the side xof nose or upperlip spread to where and via which veins |
May spread to cavenous venous sinus via facial vein, ptrerygoid venous plexus and opthalmic veins |
|
Retromandibular is formed by the union of |
Superficial temporal and maxillary veins Divides into ant. Branch.... .....Common facial vein Post. Branch.... Joins post. Auricular and forms EJV |
