Q

What is the bovine temporal fossa?

Q

What can occur if horns fracture?

A

osteomyelitis
sinusitis

30
Q

Both these animals were dehorned and became sick with sinusitis. What is a cause of this?

A

the cornual diverticulum of the frontal sinus was exposed which can create infection if prevention not put in place for bacteria to get in

Q

Why are ruminants dehorned?

A

done to prevent accidents

32
Q

What is the difference between disbudding and dehorning?

A

disbudding: refers to the destruction or excision of horn-producing cells before skull attachment

dehorning: involves the excision of the horn after skull attachment

33
Q

What is this?

maxillary sinus

Q

How does the maxillary sinus in ruminants differ than in equines?

What is the lacrimal bulla?

A

caudal expansion of the maxillary sinus

Q

What is this?

A

lacrimal bulla

Q

T/F: The lacrimal bulla is a very thin layer of bone

A

TRUE

38
Q

The maxillary sinus communicates with the ______

A

nasal cavity

39
Q

What must you be careful of in a bovine eye enucleation?

A

lacrimal bulla

if you broke it, you would leave the maxillary sinus open to infection

40
Q

What is this?

A

palatine sinus

41
Q

The palatine sinus is an extension of ______

A

hard palate

42
Q

What is this?

A

palatine sinus

44
Q

What muscle of the face is larger in ruminants than equine? Its function?

A

buccinator m.

to chew cud

45
Q

Identify these muscles

A

purple: depressor labii inferioris m.
pink: buccinator m.
orange: parotidauricularis m.

46
Q

Which muscle goes to the lateral commissure of the lips?

A

What is #1, 1’? #2? #10?

A

1, 1’: levator labii superioris m.
2. levator labii superioris m.

Q

What is the function of the cornual nerve? It is a branch of ______

52
Q

In large ruminants, what nerve(s) must be blocked for dehorning?

A

cornual nerve (branch of V2)
