lecture 16: CN V and VII Flashcards
what are the 3 divisions of the trigeminal n
opthlamaic
maxillary
madinbular
is trigeminal mixed, sensory or motor
mixed
where does the trigeminal n emerge from the pons
lateral aspect of the pons
what is the only branch of the trigeminal n that carries motor fibers
only C V3 (mandibular)
true or false: only the only C V3 (mandibular) carries sensory fibers
false, motor fibers
in the trigeminal n, most primary sensory neurons cell bodies (pseudounipolar) are located where
in trigeminal ganglion
where is the trigeminal ganglion located
near pons
what is the dermatome distribution of the opthlamaic n
cornea, skin of forehead, scalp, eyelid, anterior nose, anterior nasal cavity mucosa, mucosa of paranasal sinuses
what foramen foes the ophthalmic n exit thru
superior orbital fissure
what foramen foes the maxillary n exit thru
foramen rotundum
what foramen foes the mandibular n exit thru
foramen ovale
what is the dermatome distribution of the maxillary n
skin of the face over maxilla (upper lip, cheek), maxillary teeth, posterior nasal cavity mucosa, maxillary sinus and palate
what is the dermatome distribution of the mandibular n
skin of the face over the mandible and sides of face, mandibular teeth, temporomadinular joint, oral mucusa, anterior 2.3 of tongu
what muscle does the mandibulary n innervate
muscles of mastication
=temporalis, masseter, medial and lateral pterygoids
tensr tympani
true or false: all 3 divisions of the trigeminal n carry all somatosensory modalities
true
what are the two trigeminal n nuclei
sensory trigeminal n (somatic sensory)
motor trigeminal nucleus (brainchian motor)
what are the 3 parts of the sensory trigeminal nucleus
mesencephalic nucleus (midbrain/pons), chief nucleus (pons), spinal nucleus (pons to c3)
the sensory trigeminal nucleus extends from where to where
midbrain to upper cervical spine
where is the mesencephalic nucleus (of sensory trigeminal nucleus) located
midbrain/pons
where is the chief nucleus (of sensory trigeminal nucleus located )
pons
true or false: the chief nucleus carries only branchial motor
false, sensory info
where is the spinal nucleus (of sensory trigeminal nucleus) located
(pons to c3)
spinal trigeminal nucleus receives what type of info
pain and temperature (spinothalamic pathway)
the spinal nucleus of the trigeminal n is continuous with BLANK in the spinal cord
dorsal column (since spinothalamic info is thru dorsal horns)
