Q

Zonule Fibers

Study These Flashcards
A

Suspsensory fibers of the lens, tension due to introcular eye pressure

25
Ciliary Muscle. Distal sigh passive or activ?
contraction decreases the circumference of the muslce creating SLACK int eh zonule fibers allowing the lens to thicken by elastic rebound Distal site- flattened lens --> PASSIVE Near site- curved lens --> active
26
Describe pathway of Preganglionic Parasympathetic neuron
Edinger-Westphal nuclues --> Oculomotor nerve --> through superior orbital fissure --> synapse at ciliary ganglion --> postganglionic Parasympathetic fibers = short ciliary nerves --> 1) sphincter pupillae, 2) Ciliary muslce, 3) Ciliary processes (aqueous humor)
27
Describe pathway of Lower motor neurons for extraocular eye muscles
``` Lower motor nuerons --> pass oculomotor nerve --> pass Superior orbital fissure --> Motor fibers to 1.Levator Palebraie superiorir muslce Superior rectus m. Medial Rectus m. Inferior Rectus m Inferior Oblique m. ```
28
pathway for Sympathetic
Preganglionic Sympathetic from T1-T3 --> synapse at Superior cerical ganglion --> postganglionic sympahtetic fibers course in teh adventittia of the carotid artery and its branches --> short ciliary nerves --> dilator pupillae muslce and vessels / Superior and inferior tarsal mm and vessels
29
What other cranial nerves are tested with CN III?
CN III, IV, VI requires hed to be fixed to prevent head movment Patietn is confornted and aksed to follow finger movments which tets mucuslar funciton of the extraocular eye muscles and thus somatic motor fibers contained in CN III as well as CN IV and CN VI
30
Where does CN VII enter frove?
petrous bone via internal acoustic meatus
31
What is the Geniculate Ganglion?
Psuedounipoloar neurons = primary sensory neurons of the facial nerve
32
Greater PEtrosal Nerve
preganglionic parasympathric neurons- preganglionic fibers will synapse in pterygopalatine ganglion
33
Deep Petrosal Nerve
Postganglionic sympathetic fibers from superior cervical ganglion being conveyed by internal carotid artery
34
Nerve of pterygoid Canal
combined greater and deep petrosial neves- deep poterosal fibers will pass thorugh ptergypalatine ganglion but not synapse
35
What is the nervus intermedius?
Sensory root of Fa ial Nerve CN VII
36
How do you test Motor fucntino of CN VII (Facial)
have patient wrinke forehead, smile, show teeth and whistle
37
what will happen witha persion who has a pERIPHERAL lesion of the PRIMARY root
result in an ENTIRE paralysis of PARESIS of one-half of IPSILATERAL face-
38
What will happen if there is a CENTRAL LESION of CN VII
centrallesion will spare upper half of face
39
Hyperacusis
sensitivity to loud sounds- paralysis of paresis of ipsilateral STAPEDIUS MUSCLE
40
Bell's Palsy
When total paralysis on 1/2 of face; PERIPHERAL PARALYSIS- total invovlement of ipsilateral half of face Droopy mouth, paralyzes muscles in eyelid Eyeball moistened, lacrimal gland fine, but tears will come out of eye, not distributed over eye evenetly
41
Central Paralysis
upper half of face spared If lesion on central paralysis, still hve other upper motor neurons in motor cortex tht across over Neurons that cross oer only innervate top half of the contralateral side
42
How do you test SENSORY portion of CN VII
CORNEAL REFLEX- wisp of cotton touched to ipsilateral cornea should elicit a corneal reflex and both eyes should shut- damage to CN VII is a loss of efferent limb of reflex TASTE- is tested using salt, sugar and bitter solutions applied to sides of tongue protruded from mouth--taste to be before tongue
43
How to test parasympathetic fibers of CN VII
PS fibers are secretomotor to sublingual, submandibular, and lacrimal glands- pateints wil have symtom of dry mouth if chorda tympani neve submandibular ganglion or postganglionic fibers have been damaged and/or dry eye if greater petrosal nerve nerve of pterygoid cancal pterygopalatine ganglion or postgalgnlionic fibers in lacrimal nerve ahve been damaged
44
What can be damaged in CN VII if dry mouth?
chorda tyani nerve submandiublar ganglion postganglionic fibers
45
What can be dmaged if dry eye is a symptom
greater petrosal nerve nerve of pterygoid cnal pterygopalatine ganglion postganglionic fivers in lacrimaln eve have ebeen damaged
46
What symptoms would result from damage to facila nerve PROXIMAL TO GENICULATE GANGLION and origin of GREATER PETROSAL N.
Flaccid paralysis of ipsilateral half of face (Bells palsy( Decreased mucous produciton in ipsilateral nasal and oral cavities Decreased lacrimation by ipsilateral lacrimal gland decreased salivaion from ipsilateral submandibular and sublingual glands some loss of cutanesou innervation from ipsialteral pinna nad exernal auditory canal (tough to etst) Decreased taste sensation from ipsilateral anterior 2/3 of tongue loss of corneal reflex
47
Summary of symptoms if dmage is DISTAL to geniculate ganglion but proximal to exit of nerve to STAPEDIUS muscle and and chorda tympani
decreased salivation and taste Flaccid paralysis of half of face hyperacusis loss of corneal reflex all ipsilateral but sparing of lacrimation mucous produciton as greater petrosal nerve is spared
48
What are sympsoms if dmaange to facial nerve is AT or DISTAL to stylomastoid foramen
flaccid paralysis of half of face (Bell's Palsy) loss of corneal reflex but to parasympathetic sympoms or loss of taste
49
What will happen if there is a CENTRAL LESION of CN VII
centrallesion will spare upper half of face
50
Hyperacusis
sensitivity to loud sounds- paralysis of paresis of ipsilateral STAPEDIUS MUSCLE
51
Bell's Palsy
When total paralysis on 1/2 of face; PERIPHERAL PARALYSIS- total invovlement of ipsilateral half of face Droopy mouth, paralyzes muscles in eyelid Eyeball moistened, lacrimal gland fine, but tears will come out of eye, not distributed over eye evenetly
52
Central Paralysis

53

55
What can be damaged in CN VII if dry mouth?
chorda tyani nerve submandiublar ganglion postganglionic fibers
56
What can be dmaged if dry eye is a symptom
greater petrosal nerve nerve of pterygoid cnal pterygopalatine ganglion postganglionic fivers in lacrimaln eve have ebeen damaged
57
