Anatomy/Histology Flashcards
(75 cards)
Due to the failure of neural crest cell migration secondary to a RET mutation, the distal colon does not have Auerbach and Meissner plexuses
Hirschsprung Disease
loss of coordination of voluntary movements); rate, range and force of movements are abnormal resulting to intention tremor
Ataxia
overshoots or undershoots when attempting to touch a target
Dysmetria
inability to perform rapid alternating movements
Dysdiadochokinesia
Ataxia, Dysmetria and dysdiadokinesia are lesions found in which lobe of the cerebellum

Larynx lies at which level/s of the cervical vertebrae
4,5,6
narrowest part of the laryngeal cavity; space between the vocal folds and arytenoid cartilages
Rima Glottidis

The cervical plexus is formed by the
Anterior rrami of the first four cervical nerves
Branches of the cervical plexus
Cutaneous
Muscular branches to neck muscles
Nerve supply to the diaphragm: Phrenic
Cutaneous branch of the cervical plexus supplying the lateral part of occipital region and medial surface of the auricle
Lesser occipital (C2)
Cutaneous branch of the cervical plexus supplying the angle of the mandible, parotid gland and auricle
Greater auricle (C2 and C3)
Cutaneous branch of the cervical plexus supplying the anterior and lateral surfaces of the neck
Transverse cutaneous (C2 and C3)
