A

vertebral, ascending pharyngeal and occipital

28

what crosses the internal thoracic a anteirorly

A

phrenic n

29
Q

A

costocervical trunk

30
Q

what are the branches off costcervical trunk

deep cervical a and highest(posterior) intercostal a

31
Q

where does deep cervical a run

A

dorsal to brachial plexus between semispinalis cervicis and capitis mm
anastomoses with descending branch of occipital a

32

A

C1-C4

40
Q

where is the superior cervical ganglion located

A

anterior surface longus capitis

41
Q

why are there no preganglioni sympathetic fibers in head

A

because the superior cervical ganglion provides ALL post-ganglionic SAN fibers to head

deep petrosal n
cavernous plexus

44
Q

What does deep petrosal inn

A

mucosa of nasal cavities and palate and upper pharynx via V2

A

IX X

48
