Q

Damage to the LMN of CN XII results in the paralysis of what uncle of the tongue and what is the result of this

Genioglossus paralyzed and the tongue deviates towards the side of the lesion

Q

Longitudinal muscle fibers function

Fibers and posterior

A

Shorten tongue

17
Q

Transverse muscle fibers of the tongue fibers

A

Narrow the tongue

18
Q

Sensory innervation of the tongue

A

Ant to epiglottis=X-visceral sensory touch and taste
Post 1/3=IX
Ant1/3=VII-taste
V3-somatic sensory touch

19
Q

What is located at the palatoglossal arch

A

Site of the oropharyngeal membrane and is the boundary between the oral cavity and pharynx

20
Q

What is something unique about the lymphatic of the tongue

And what is the pattern of drainage

A

Lymph vessels of the tongue cross the midline: lesion may spread to the opposite side

Submental, submandibular, deep cervical

21
Q

Lingual nerve pathway

A

Arises from v3 and joined by the chords tympani (VII)

22
Q

Branches of VII in the facial canal (3 of them and what they do)

A
  1. Greater petrosal nerve-visceral motor parasympathetic to the lacrimal gland, mucous glands of the nose, and palate. Also visceral sensory to the nasopharynx
  2. Stapedial nerve- branchiomotor to the stapedius
  3. Chorda tympani- taste to the anterior 2/3 of the tongue, visceral motor parasympathetic to the submandibular, sublingual salivary glands
23
Q

Where does the chorda tympani cross in the ear

A

The middle ear through the tympanic cavity over the handle of the malleus

24
Q

What is the petrotympanic fissure

A

A place for the chorda tympani and anterior tympanic artery to run

25
Q

Where do the parasympathetics from the chorda tympani synapse

A

The submandibular ganglion and then send fibers ot the salivary glands

26
Q

Clinical correlate: severing the lingual nerve in the floor of the mouth

And what can cause it

A

Loss of taste and touch

1) V general sensation tot he anterior tongue
2) hitchhiking VII- taste fibers to the anterior tongue

Can be caused by an impacted molar tooth

27
Q

Where does CN IX leave the skull

A

Via the jugular foramen

28
Q

What muscle does CN IX course close to in the pharynx

A

The stylopharyngeus muscle between the superior and middle constrictor

29
Q

Clinical correlate of removal of the palatine tonsils

A

Can damage the glossopharyngeal nerve and cause loss of visceral sensation and chemical taste to the post 1/3 of the tongue

30
Q

2 branches of the lingual artery

A

Dorsal lingual artery and the sublingual artery

31
Q

Facial artery branches

A

1: ascending palatine artery
2: tonsil are branch (palatine tonsil)-can result in a extensive bleeding in a tonsillectomy

32
Q

What muscle does the submandibular salivary gland wrap around

A

The mylohyoid
