contents of Condylar canal emissary vein that passes from sigmoid sinus to vertebral veins in neck
contents of Mastoid Foramen Mastoid emissary vein from sigmoid sinus and meningeal branch of occipital artery
mimetic muscles radiate into? the skin of the face and the head, and their contraction causes displacement of the skin.
4 groups of mimetic muscles: A- Muscles of the Scalp B- Muscles in the region of eyelid C- Muscles in the Nasal region D- Muscle of the Mouth region
Muscles of the Scalp: Epicranius Muscle: (Occipitofrontalis) produces wrinkles in forehead and gives facial expression of Astonishment. Innervation: All mimetic muscles by Facial nerve (cranial nerve CNVII)

Forehead's blood is supplied by ? supratrochlear A. (8) and supraorbital (9) A., both from ophthalmic A supratrochlear A. (8) and supraorbital (9) A., both from ophthalmic A
Facial vein anastomoses via ? Angular vein (11) With dorsal nasal vein
***WHY IS THIS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT: Facial vein (10) anastomoses via Angular vein (11) With dorsal nasal vein ***This anastomoses is extremely important since this allows a direct connection to Cavernous sinus, through which, infections eg: from a furuncle on the lip, may get into skull.
Sensory innervation to the face: Is derived from branches of Trigeminal (V) nerve
Trigeminal (V) nerve Ophthalmic (V/1), Maxillary (V/2) and mandibular (V/3) nerves. Ophthalmic nerve: supplies the forehead: Supratrochlear N (17) and supraorbital
Maxillary nerve supplies lower eyelid, Cheek, lateral nasal, upper lip and anterior Temporal regions by Infraorbital N.
Mandibular N lower lip over mandible (not angle) and chin by mental N (23). Auriculotemporal N (24) supplies skin on Mandible ramus, concha of auricle and Most part of ext. layer of tympanic memb
Sensitivity of the 3 branches of trigeminal N can be tested by? pressing nerves 18, 22 and 23. This is a vertical line, 2-3 cm lateral to midline
****Trigeminal Neuralgia NERVE disorder that causes a stabbing or electric shock like pain in parts of face may be caused by MS or pressure on trigeminal nerve from a swollen blood vessel or tumor
****Trigeminal Neuralgia SLIDES INFO (Tic Douloureux) disorder of unknown etiology (cause) associated with intractable pain along the 3 branches of trigeminal nerve but especially along maxillary and mandibular nerves. A simple trigger such as touch, cold or hot can start the pain
****Trigeminal Neuralgia THERAPY Carbamazepine, radiofrequency destruction of the branches involved. Alcohol or Glycerin injection around the trigeminal ganglion. Transection of the sensory root. Vascular decompression of the trigeminal ganglion

Muscles of the neck: ****Platysma: *Action: brings down corners of the mouth, expressing sadness. *Innervation: Facial N. (VII) (cervical branch)
***Injury to this nerve leads to paralysis of platysma (skin falls away from the neck by folds Facial N. (VII) (cervical branch)
wHAT Is the only cutaneous muscle in human body (under the skin) ? Platysma:
*Careful sutures of the skin should be made in surgery of the neck region BECAUSE OF? Platysma AND FACIAL NERVE 7

***Accessory nerve 11 Examination Sternomastoid: ask patient to rotate head against resistance to compare power and muscle bulk on each side. Then compare each side with the patient pulling head forward against resistance. The left sternomastoid turns the head right and vice versa
***Accessory nerve 11 Examination Trapezius Ask patient to "shrug" shoulders and to hold them in this position against resistance. Compare power on each side. Patient should manage to resist any effort to depress shoulders.
***Congenital and Spasmodic Torticollis (Wry neck) Congenital Torticollis: Most common type of Torticollis. Fibromatosis (fibrous tissue tumor) of Sternocleidomastoid M. Therapy: division of the muscle below XI nerve or from its distal attachment.
**Congenital and Spasmodic Torticollis (Wry neck) symptoms Head turns to the side and face away from the affected side. Leads to stifness of the neck due to fibrosis and shortening of the sternocleidomastoid. Injury during delivery may also result in Torticollis. (muscle tear and hematoma leads to fibrosis)
***Spasmodic Torticollis (Wry neck) Cranial dystonia (abnormal tonicity) Between 20-60 years of age. Unknown cause. May involve bilateral neck muscles especially the Sternocleidomastoid M. Unilateral deviation of the head. (turning, tilting, flexion or extension of the neck)
Spasmodic Torticollis: THERAPY myotomy or also section of the spinal Accessory N. and upper cervical ant. roots
***Infrahyoid muscles: Omohyoid, Sternohyoid, Sternothyroid and Thyrohyoid
**Omohyoid muscle *Action: fascia tensor and dilates internal Jugular vein lying beneath it. (this aids to return of blood to the heart) Opens the mouth and helps in lateral flexion of the head. *Innervation: Most Infrahyoid muscles are innervated by cervical Ansa
Thyrohyoid M. Innervation: C1, before giving the branch to cervical ansa. *Action: All infrathyroid muscles work together to approximate thyroid cartilage to hyoid bone. When mouth is open, they stabilize laryngeal cartilages and the hyoid bone

Thyroid Gland Body's largest endocrine gland Is deep to sternothyroid and sternohyoid M
****Function OF THYROID Produces Thyroxin which controls the rate of metabolism of the body, and Calcitonin controlling Ca++ metabolism.
Goiter: Enlargement of Thyroid gland (nonneoplastic and noninflammatory). Usually not upward shift. Endemic in areas deficient in Iodine in food. Swelling in the neck which may disturb trachea, esophagus and/or laryngeal nerves. Exophthalmic goiter is due to excessive production of th
Thyroidectomy: Removal of thyroid due to cancer. Subtotal due to preservation of Parathyroid glands and recurrent as well as superior laryngeal nerves. Inadvertent removal of parathyroid glands lead to tetany, severe convulsion and muscle spasm due to decrease in serum Ca++ and may lead to resp f
