Nerves of the Orbit Optic Nerve the Optic Nerve Enters the Orbit from the Middle Cranial Fossa by Passing Through the Optic Canal
human anatomy 2016 lecture fourteen Dr meethak ali ahmed neurosurgeon Nerves of the Orbit Optic Nerve The optic nerve enters the orbit from the middle cranial fossa by passing through the optic canal . It is accompanied by the ophthalmic artery, which lies on its lower lateral side. The nerve is surrounded by sheath of pia mater, arachnoid mater, and dura mater. It runs forward and laterally within the cone of the recti muscles and pierces the sclera at a point medial to the posterior pole of the eyeball. Here, the meninges fuse with the sclera so that the subarachnoid space with its contained cerebrospinal fluid extends forward from the middle cranial fossa, around the optic nerve, and through the optic canal, as far as the eyeball. A rise in pressure of the cerebrospinal fluid within the cranial cavity therefore is transmitted to theback of the eyeball. Lacrimal Nerve The lacrimal nerve arises from the ophthalmic division of the trigeminal nerve. It enters the orbit through the upper part of the superior orbital fissure and passes forward along the upper border of the lateral rectus muscle . It is joined by a branch of the zygomaticotemporal nerve, whi(parasympathetic secretomotor fibers). The lacrimal nerve ends by supplying the skin of the lateral part of the upper lid. Frontal Nerve The frontal nerve arises from the ophthalmic division of the trigeminal nerve. It enters the orbit through the upper part of the superior orbital fissure and passes forward on the upper surface of the levator palpebrae superioris beneath the roof of the orbit . -
Regional Anesthesia in Head and Neck Surgery
TITLE: Regional Anesthesia in Head and Neck Surger SOURCE: Grand Rounds Presentation, UTMB, Dept. of Otolaryngology DATE: May 24, 2006 RESIDENT PHYSICIAN: Jacques Peltier, MD FACULTY PHYSICIAN: Francis B. Quinn, MD SERIES EDITORS: Francis B. Quinn, Jr., MD and Matthew W. Ryan, MD "This material was prepared by resident physicians in partial fulfillment of educational requirements established for the Postgraduate Training Program of the UTMB Department of Otolaryngology/Head and Neck Surgery and was not intended for clinical use in its present form.

Introduction Local anesthetic techniques were popularized early in the history of surgery with the advent of injectable nerve blocking agents. Until their discovery, patients were either held down or knocked unconscious to perform procedures. In the early days of general anesthesia, local anesthesia was preferred in all cases that it was applicable due to the significant risks associated with general anesthesia. Many procedures performed today under general anesthesia, such as tonsillectomy, rhinoplasty, and even bronchoscopy, were performed under local anesthesia to avoid the perils of general anesthetics. With the introduction of pulse oximetry, safer inhaled anesthetics, and combined intravenous and inhaled general anesthesia techniques, general anesthesia has become much safer, resulting in many surgeons being unfamiliar with regional nerve blocks to perform surgery. -
Periorbital Sinuses the Periorbital Sinuses Have a Close Anatomical Relationship with the Orbits (Fig 1-8)
12 ● Fundamentals and Principles of Ophthalmology Lacrimal nerve Frontal nerve Trochlear nerve (CN IV) Superior ophthalmic vein Superior division Ophthalmic artery of CN III Nasociliary nerve Abducens nerve (CN VI) Inferior division of CN III Inferior ophthalmic vein A Figure 1-7 A, Anterior view of the right orbital apex showing the distribution of the nerves as they enter through the superior orbital fissure and optic canal. This view also shows the annu- lus of Zinn, the fibrous ring formed by the origin of the 4 rectus muscles. (Continued) The course of the inferior ophthalmic vein is variable, and it can travel within or below the ring as it exits the orbit. The inferior orbital fissure lies just below the superior fissure, between the lateral wall and the floor of the orbit, providing access to the pterygopalatine and inferotemporal fos- sae (see Fig 1-1). Therefore, it is close to the foramen rotundum and the pterygoid canal. The inferior orbital fissure transmits the infraorbital and zygomatic branches of CN V2, an orbital nerve from the pterygopalatine ganglion, and the inferior ophthalmic vein. The inferior ophthalmic vein connects with the pterygoid plexus before draining into the cav- ernous sinus. Periorbital Sinuses The periorbital sinuses have a close anatomical relationship with the orbits (Fig 1-8). The medial walls of the orbits, which border the nasal cavity anteriorly and the ethmoid sinus and sphenoid sinus posteriorly, are almost parallel. In adults, the lateral wall of each orbit forms an angle of approximately 45° with the medial plane. The lateral walls border the middle cranial, temporal, and pterygopalatine fossae. -
Anatomy-Nerve Tracking
INJECTABLES ANATOMY www.aestheticmed.co.uk Nerve tracking Dr Sotirios Foutsizoglou on the anatomy of the facial nerve he anatomy of the human face has received enormous attention during the last few years, as a plethora of anti- ageing procedures, both surgical and non-surgical, are being performed with increasing frequency. The success of each of those procedures is greatly dependent on Tthe sound knowledge of the underlying facial anatomy and the understanding of the age-related changes occurring in the facial skeleton, ligaments, muscles, facial fat compartments, and skin. The facial nerve is the most important motor nerve of the face as it is the sole motor supply to all the muscles of facial expression and other muscles derived from the mesenchyme in the embryonic second pharyngeal arch.1 The danger zone for facial nerve injury has been well described. Confidence when approaching the nerve and its branches comes from an understanding of its three dimensional course relative to the layered facial soft tissue and being aware of surface anatomy landmarks and measurements as will be discussed in this article. Aesthetic medicine is not static, it is ever evolving and new exciting knowledge emerges every day unmasking the relationship of the ageing process and the macroscopic and microscopic (intrinsic) age-related changes. Sound anatomical knowledge, taking into consideration the natural balance between the different facial structures and facial layers, is fundamental to understanding these changes which will subsequently help us develop more effective, natural, long-standing and most importantly, safer rejuvenating treatments and procedures. The soft tissue of the face is arranged in five layers: 1) Skin; 2) Subcutaneous fat layer; 3) Superficial musculoaponeurotic system (SMAS); 4) Areolar tissue or loose connective tissue (most clearly seen in the scalp and forehead); 5) Deep fascia formed by the periosteum of facial bones and the fascial covering of the muscles of mastication (lateral face). -
Anatomical Study of the Zygomaticotemporal Branch Inside the Orbit
Open Access Original Article DOI: 10.7759/cureus.1727 Anatomical Study of the Zygomaticotemporal Branch Inside the Orbit Joe Iwanaga 1 , Charlotte Wilson 1 , Koichi Watanabe 2 , Rod J. Oskouian 3 , R. Shane Tubbs 4 1. Seattle Science Foundation 2. Department of Anatomy, Kurume University School of Medicine 3. Neurosurgery, Complex Spine, Swedish Neuroscience Institute 4. Neurosurgery, Seattle Science Foundation Corresponding author: Charlotte Wilson, [email protected] Abstract The location of the opening of the zygomaticotemporal branch (ZTb) of the zygomatic nerve inside the orbit (ZTFIN) has significant surgical implications. This study was conducted to locate the ZTFIN and investigate the variations of the ZTb inside the orbit. A total of 20 sides from 10 fresh frozen cadaveric Caucasian heads were used in this study. The vertical distance between the inferior margin of the orbit and ZTFIN (V-ZTFIN), the horizontal distance between the lateral margin of the orbit and ZTFIN (H-ZTFIN), and the diameter of the ZTFIN (D-ZTFIN) were measured. The patterns of the ZTb inside the orbit were classified into five different groups: both ZTb and LN innervating the lacrimal gland independently (Group A), both ZTb and LN innervating the lacrimal gland with a communicating branch (Group B), ZTb joining the LN without a branch to the lacrimal gland (Group C), the ZTb going outside the orbit through ZTFIN without a branch to the lacrimal gland nor LN (Group D), and absence of the ZTb (Group E). The D-ZTFIN V-ZTFIN H-ZTFIN ranged from 0.2 to 1.1 mm, 6.6 to 21.5 mm, 2.0 to 11.3 mm, respectively. -
The Mandibular Nerve - Vc Or VIII by Prof
The Mandibular Nerve - Vc or VIII by Prof. Dr. Imran Qureshi The Mandibular nerve is the third and largest division of the trigeminal nerve. It is a mixed nerve. Its sensory root emerges from the posterior region of the semilunar ganglion and is joined by the motor root of the trigeminal nerve. These two nerve bundles leave the cranial cavity through the foramen ovale and unite immediately to form the trunk of the mixed mandibular nerve that passes into the infratemporal fossa. Here, it runs anterior to the middle meningeal artery and is sandwiched between the superior head of the lateral pterygoid and tensor veli palatini muscles. After a short course during which a meningeal branch to the dura mater, and the nerve to part of the medial pterygoid muscle (and the tensor tympani and tensor veli palatini muscles) are given off, the mandibular trunk divides into a smaller anterior and a larger posterior division. The anterior division receives most of the fibres from the motor root and distributes them to the other muscles of mastication i.e. the lateral pterygoid, medial pterygoid, temporalis and masseter muscles. The nerve to masseter and two deep temporal nerves (anterior and posterior) pass laterally above the medial pterygoid. The nerve to the masseter continues outward through the mandibular notch, while the deep temporal nerves turn upward deep to temporalis for its supply. The sensory fibres that it receives are distributed as the buccal nerve. The 1 | P a g e buccal nerve passes between the medial and lateral pterygoids and passes downward and forward to emerge from under cover of the masseter with the buccal artery. -

Abstract: The auriculotemporal nerve (ATN) is a branch of the mandibular nerve and has been implicated for some migraines and its role in Frey’s syndrome is well known. An adult cadaver was found to have a duplicated ATN. The anterior trunk ascended as the superficial temporal artery and gave off the branches to the temporomandibular joint, parotid gland, external acoustic meatus and temporal region and communicated with a posterior trunk of the ATN. The posterior trunk ascended via the subcutaneous tissues 1 mm anterior to the auricle and gave off the branches to the anterior auricular region, temporal region and communicated with the anterior trunk. Such a duplicated ATN might be injured with preauricular skin incisions. Knowledge of such an anatomical variation might assist surgeons in iatrogenic injury of the ATN.
