posteriorly = cervical vertebrae

what can happenw hen a person is stabbed in the neck?

big chance of piercing the lung, lung collapses because no gas exchange. lung projects over the superior borderof the 1st rib. if knife wound is deep enough will penetrate pleural cavity

where is the brachial plexus located in relation to scalenus muscles?

between anterior and middle scalene muscles. muscle attaches to the first rib and anteriorly forces subclavian vein and posterior has subclavian artery. scalenus anterior m subdivides muscle into anterior/proximal, middle and lateral

what is berry aneurism?

once ossification is complete, how do you determine which type of ossification took place with each structure?

once process is complete, cannot tell which type of ossification took place

explain the development of the human skull from the primitive cranial skeleton.

the pharyngeal arches of humans are modified from the gill apparatus (brachial arches) of primitive vertebrates. the skeletal elements of the gill bars formed the foundation for the human jaw and neck skeleton. the expanding brain in the line of fish lead

cavernous sinus
contents CN III, IV, VI, V1, V2

what happens with aneurism and injury to internal carotid artery

lose movements of the eyeball; anesthesia of eyeball V1, anesthesia of mastication

what is cushings syndrome?

tumor of pituitary gland. caused by overactivity of adrenal cortex

what is the only bone in basicranium that forms by only endochondral ossification?

ethmoid bone

what happens if you compress CN II?

blurred vision or even blindness

37 year old woman with severe head ach stiff neck and fever is admitted to the hospital with a likely diagnosis of meningitis. infection may spread from the nasal cavity to the meninges along the olfactory nerves. olfactory fivers pass fromt he olfactory

cribiform plate --will have spread of infection because through holes CN 1 passes through

if cut bone at location of foramen rotundum and injure the nerve that passes through it, what happens?

anesthesia of all maxillary teeth and palate (injury of CN V2)

what happens with injury to CN V3?

MOTOR AND SENSORY
-paralysis of masticatory muscles -> no chewing
-anesthesia of chin and temporal area

connect vasculature of scalp with vasculature of interior of cranium

identify those areas of the skull that develop as capsules that hold organs of special sensation

olfactory capsule
optic capsule
otic capsule

describe where fontanelles are found and thier developmental fate

-in new born see parietal temporal occipital separate by open sutures and wide gaps
-must allow for growth of the skull after birth
-if fused at birth no further possibility of further brain growth
-this happens to provide a lot of flexibility of the skul

what happens if the neural tube does not close or fails to close completely?

the CNS is basically hollow so if it doesnt close over, the skin doesnt close over and the vertebral arches dont form all hte way to the part of the brain --> the higher parts of the brain does NOT form

what happens if one or more sutures of the skull close prematurely?

if saggital suture closes prematurely but brain keeps growing, get expansion --> scaphocephaly "wedged in

primitively do muscles of the 2nd branchial arch extend to the facial region?

no, most do not have superficial muscles attached to face which change facial expressions

the superficial facial muscles are primitively derived from what 3 muscles sheaths?

most superficial was the sphincter colli superficialis, which has been lost in humans. next is the platysma which forms a longitudinal sheet on the side of the neck and also gives rise to the auricularis posterior, occipitalis and depressor labii inferior

supraorbital foramen, infraorbital foramen, mental foramen

T/F the buccinators muscle does NOT close the jaw

true

what is ptosis

palsy of CN III = closed eyelid
1st sign of CN III injury is complete ptossi

what is bell's palsy?

compression of the facial nerve, partial of complete paralysis on one side, when face is relaxed cannot close eyelids because orbicularis oculi paralyzed, whole face drops to 1 side.

name the 2 areas of major differences in the arterial and venous connections?

there is a connection in the veins that is not present in the arteries. also posteriorly the retromandibular vein which goes dwon tothe facial vein and then drains into the external/internal jugular vein.

if you have a cut of a scalp that goes longitudinally versus transverse, which will produce more bleeding?

transverse cute because muscles will pull the edges of the incision apart, the connective tissue will keep the lumina of vessels open, and exacerbated because muscles will make the wound gape more than if longitudinal cut.

what is the precursor to the mandible?

Meckels Cartilage

would ossification take place in meckels cartilage

no, takes place in the membrane SURROUNDING the bone --> membranous ossification, ossification in membrane not cartilage

most of the mandible forms in membrane that invests and surrounds meckels cartilage EXCEPT where?

endochondral centers, where mandibular condyle forms is a joining that forms by endochonral ossification the rest is by membranous ossification

what happens to Meckels cartilage as the bone develops?

gets reabsorbed and disappears, early vertebrates do not have teeth, higher vertebrates have teeth because reabsorbed into canal into which nerves and blood vessels can migrate --> stimulate development of teeth

there are ____cleftes, ___ pouches and ___arches before proliferation of the second arch

4, 5, 5

2 ,3, 4

what is the only cleft that develops into a normal structure? what structure does it develop into? what happens to the other clefts?

1st cleft: external auditory meatus
#1 dorsal part penetrates the underlying mesoderm in the direction of the 1st pharyngeal pouch and gives rise to the external auditory meatus
#2 active proliferaton of this one (2nd arch) causes it to grow caudal overla

posteriror 1/3 of the tongue = CN 9,10

describe innervation to the tongue

taste sensation from chorda tympani (CN VII)--> grows into undersurface of anterior 2/3 of tongue, contacts in several places and induces taste buds of anterior 2/3 of tongue to taste
-posterior 1/2 of tongue--taste bud---also CN IX
-motor innervation --h

what is significant about the foramen cecum?

where thyroid gland develops initially in endodermal tissue -->migrates down tot he thyroglossalduct -->stops for short time tin front of hyoid bone then goes down to upper tracheal rings where it resides

form T-cells

why do we call the parathyroid of 3rd pouch inferior and the one below it superior?

parathyroid of 4th pouch detaches before the the 3rd one

unilateral cleft lip and primary palate
