Foramen lacerum *** The foramen lacerum is on the base of the skull. The pterygopalatine fossa is a small triangular space behind and below the orbital cavity. It communicates laterally with the infratemporal fossa through the pterygomaxillary fissure, medially with the nasal cavity through the sphenopalatine foramen, superiorly with the skull through the foramen rotundum, and anteriorly with the orbit through the inferior orbital fissure. The pterygopalatine ganglion lies in the pterygopalatine fossa just below the maxillary nerve (V-2). The pterygopalatine ganglion receives preganglionic parasympathetic fibers from the facial nerve by way of the greater petrosal nerve. The pterygopalatine ganglion sends postganglionic parasympathetic fibers to the lacrimal gland and glands in the palate and the nose. Note: The maxillary nerve (V-2) and the pterygopalatine portion of the maxillary artery pass through the pterygopalatine fossa.

Palatal Injection Does Not Block the Superior Alveolar Nerve Trunks: Correcting an Error Regarding the Innervation of the Maxillary Teeth
Open Access Review Article DOI: 10.7759/cureus.2120 Palatal Injection does not Block the Superior Alveolar Nerve Trunks: Correcting an Error Regarding the Innervation of the Maxillary Teeth Joe Iwanaga 1 , R. Shane Tubbs 2 1. Seattle Science Foundation 2. Neurosurgery, Seattle Science Foundation Corresponding author: Joe Iwanaga, [email protected] Abstract The superior alveolar nerves course lateral to the maxillary sinus and the greater palatine nerve travels through the hard palate. This difficult three-dimensional anatomy has led some dentists and oral surgeons to a critical misunderstanding in developing the anterior and middle superior alveolar (AMSA) nerve block and the palatal approach anterior superior alveolar (P-ASA) nerve block. In this review, the anatomy of the posterior, middle and anterior superior alveolar nerves, greater palatine nerve, and nasopalatine nerve are revisited in order to clarify the anatomy of these blocks so that the perpetuated anatomical misunderstanding is rectified. We conclude that the AMSA and P-ASA nerve blockades, as currently described, are not based on accurate anatomy. Categories: Anesthesiology, Medical Education, Other Keywords: anatomy, innervation, local anesthesia, maxillary nerve, nerve block, tooth Introduction And Background Anesthetic blockade of the posterior superior alveolar (PSA) branch of the maxillary nerve has played an important role in the endodontic treatment of irreversible acute pulpitis of the upper molar teeth except for the mesiobuccal root of the first molar tooth [1, 2]. This procedure requires precise anatomical knowledge of the pterygopalatine fossa and related structures in order to avoid unnecessary complications and to make the blockade most effective. The infraorbital nerve gives rise to middle superior alveolar (MSA) and anterior superior alveolar (ASA) branches.

Maxillary Nerve-Mediated Postseptoplasty Nasal Allodynia: a Case Report
E CASE REPORT Maxillary Nerve-Mediated Postseptoplasty Nasal Allodynia: A Case Report Shikha Sharma, MD, PhD,* Wilson Ly, MD, PharmD,* and Xiaobing Yu, MD*† Endoscopic nasal septoplasty is a commonly performed otolaryngology procedure, not known to cause persistent postsurgical pain or hypersensitivity. Here, we discuss a unique case of persis- tent nasal pain that developed after a primary endoscopic septoplasty, which then progressed to marked mechanical and thermal allodynia following a revision septoplasty. Pain symptoms were found to be mediated by the maxillary division of the trigeminal nerve and resolved after percuta- neous radiofrequency ablation (RFA) of bilateral maxillary nerves. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of maxillary nerve–mediated nasal allodynia after septoplasty. (A&A Practice. 2020;14:e01356.)

Local Anaesthesia for Descriptive Purposes It Is Convenient to Sub-Divide Local Anaesthesia on an Anatomical Basis Into Topical, Infiltration, and Regional Techniques
Fundamentals of technique The importance of a quiet, confident, and friendly manner towards all patients so physical comfort is also essential for the co-operation of the patient and the ease of operation of the dental surgeon. The patient should be seated in a semi-reclining position with the back and legs supported and with head rest in the nape of the neck. Most adult patients will respond to the dental surgeon's endeavors to gain the patient his or her confidence and so premedication will not be required for the administration of a local anaesthetic for a relatively simple procedure. Types of local anaesthesia For descriptive purposes it is convenient to sub-divide local anaesthesia on an anatomical basis into topical, infiltration, and regional techniques. Topical or surface anaesthesia: is obtained by the application of a suitable anaesthetic agents to an area of either skin or mucous membrane which it penetrates to anaesthetize superficial nerve-ending. It is most commonly used to obtain anaesthesia of mucosa prior to injection. Spray: containing an appropriate local anaesthetic agent are particularly suitable for this purpose because of their rapidity of action. The active ingredient is 10% lignocaine hydrochloride. When used as a spray it is very easy to spread the solution, and its effect, much more extensively than is desired. The onset time of anaesthesia is about 1 minute and the duration round about 10 minute. Ethyl chloride: when sprayed on skin or mucosa volatilizes to rapidly produces anaesthesia by refrigeration. This phenomenon is of clinical value only when spray directed at a limited area until snow appears.\This technique is of limited value is occasionally used to produce surface anaesthesia prior to incision of a fluctuant abscesses.

Morphometry and Morphology of Foramen Petrosum in Indian Population
Basic Sciences of Medicine 2020, 9(1): 8-9 DOI: 10.5923/j.medicine.20200901.02 Morphometry and Morphology of Foramen Petrosum in Indian Population Rajani Singh1,*, Nand Kishore Gupta1, Raj Kumar2 1Department of Anatomy, Uttar Pradesh University of Medical Sciences Saifai 206130 Etawah UP India 2Department of Neurosugery Uttar Pradesh University of Medical Sciences Saifai 206130 Etawah UP India Abstract Greater wing of sphenoid contains three constant foramina, Foramen ovale, foramen rotundum and foramen spinosum. The presence of foramen Vesalius and foramen petrosum are inconsistent. Normally foramen ovale transmits mandibular nerve, accessory meningeal artery, lesser petrosal nerve and emissary vein. When foramen petrosum is present, lesser petrosal nerve passes through petrosal foramen instead of foramen ovale. Lesser petrosal nerve distribute postganglionic fibers from otic ganglion to parotid gland. In absence of knowledge of petrosal foramen transmitting lesser petrosal nerve, the clinician may damage the nerve during skull base surgery creating complications like hyperemia of face and profuse salivation from the parotid gland (following atropine administration), lacrimation (crocodile tears syndrome) and mucus nasal secretion. Considering clinical implications associated with petrosal foramen, the study was carried out. The aim of the study is to determine the prevalence of petrosal foramen in Indian Population and to bring out associated clinical significance. The study was conducted in the department of Anatomy UPUMS Saifai Etawah Indian. 30 half skulls were observed for the presence of petrosal foramina and morphometry was also done. Literature search was carried out, our findings were compared with previous work and associated clinical implications were bought out. Keywords Petrosal foramen, Lesser petrosal nerve, Foramen ovale patients.

1A. Internal Auditory Meatus
1a. Internal Auditory Meatus 1. The facial nerve leaves the posterior cranial fossa to enter the facial canal by way of the internal auditory meatus (black wire). The facial canal is within the petrous part of the temporal bone. 1b. Internal Auditory Meatus The facial nerve leaves the posterior cranial fossa to enter the facial canal by way of the internal auditory meatus (black wire). 2. Hiatus of the Canal and Groove for the Greater Superficial Petrosal Nerve The greater superficial petrosal nerve leaves the facial canal to enter the middle cranial fossa by way of the hiatus of the canal for the greater superficial petrosal nerve (black wire). 3. Pterygoid Canal at Anterior Lip of the Lacerate Foramen The greater superficial petrosal nerve is joined by the deep petrosal nerve to form the nerve of the pterygoid canal (black and red wire). This nerve leaves the middle cranial fossa to enter the pterygopalatine fossa by way of the pterygoid canal. The posterior opening of the pterygoid canal is at the anterior lip of the lacerate foramen. The greater superficial nerve and the deep petrosal nerve travel within the cavernous sinus. 4. Pterygopalatine Fossa Seen Through the Pterygomaxillary Fissure The anterior opening of the pterygoid canal is into the pterygopalatine fossa (black wire). The pterygopalatine fossa is located medial to the pterygomaxillary fissure and contains the pterygopalatine ganglion. 5. External Auditory Meatus The chorda tympani nerve leaves the facial canal and crosses the middle ear (black wire). It then leaves the middle ear to arrive in the infratemporal fossa by way of the petrotympanic fissure.

Brain Structure and Function Related to Headache
Review Cephalalgia 0(0) 1–26 ! International Headache Society 2018 Brain structure and function related Reprints and permissions: sagepub.co.uk/journalsPermissions.nav to headache: Brainstem structure and DOI: 10.1177/0333102418784698 function in headache journals.sagepub.com/home/cep Marta Vila-Pueyo1 , Jan Hoffmann2 , Marcela Romero-Reyes3 and Simon Akerman3 Abstract Objective: To review and discuss the literature relevant to the role of brainstem structure and function in headache. Background: Primary headache disorders, such as migraine and cluster headache, are considered disorders of the brain. As well as head-related pain, these headache disorders are also associated with other neurological symptoms, such as those related to sensory, homeostatic, autonomic, cognitive and affective processing that can all occur before, during or even after headache has ceased. Many imaging studies demonstrate activation in brainstem areas that appear specifically associated with headache disorders, especially migraine, which may be related to the mechanisms of many of these symptoms. This is further supported by preclinical studies, which demonstrate that modulation of specific brainstem nuclei alters sensory processing relevant to these symptoms, including headache, cranial autonomic responses and homeostatic mechanisms. Review focus: This review will specifically focus on the role of brainstem structures relevant to primary headaches, including medullary, pontine, and midbrain, and describe their functional role and how they relate to mechanisms

This is an open access article distributed under the Creative Commons Attribution License, which permits unrestricted use, distribution, and reproduction in any medium, provided the original work is properly cited. The whole course of the chorda tympani nerve, nerve of pterygoid canal, and facial nerves and their relationships with surrounding structures are complex. After reviewing the literature, it was found that details of the whole course of these deep nerves are rarely reported and specimens displaying these nerves are rarely seen in the dissecting room, anatomical museum, or atlases. Dissections were performed on 16 decalcified human head specimens, exposing the chorda tympani and the nerve connection between the geniculate and pterygopalatine ganglia. Measurements of nerve lengths, branching distances, and ganglia size were taken. The chorda tympani is a very fine nerve (0.44 mm in diameter within the tympanic cavity) and approximately 54 mm in length. The mean length of the facial nerve from opening of internal acoustic meatus to stylomastoid foramen was 52.5 mm.
