  25. LAST 4 CRANIAL NERVES

  26. Glossopharyngeal Nerve • Origin :Medulla Oblongata of Brain. • It has motor,sensory & parasymp.Fs. • Course & relations :-It has 2 sensory ganglia (sup.& inf.) in thejugular foramen-It leaves skull through jugular foramen to descend in the upper neck within carotid sheath. -It leaves carotid sheath to pass between internal & external C. Ar. -It winds around stylopharyngeus Ms. between Sup. & middleconstrictors of pharynx into the back of tongue deep tohyoglossus.-it terminates by dividing into terminalbranches supplying m.m.of pharynx, tonsils, soft palate & post.1/3 of tongue

  27. Branches of Glossopharyngeal N. • Tympanic branch : arises from inf.ganglion, it hasparasymp.secreto-motor to parotid gland via auriculotemporal nerve. • Carotid branch : sensory to carotid sinus & carotid body . • Muscular :motor to Stylopharyngeus. • Pharyngeal branches (sensory) : toform the sensory part of pharyngealplexus tosupply m.m. ofpharynx, tonsils, & soft palate. • Lingual terminal branches : for general & taste sensation of post.1/3 of tongue. • Applied anatomy:pain of tonsilitis may be referred to middle ear through glossopharyngeal nerve because the nerve supplies both structures

  28. VAGUS NERVE

  29. Vagus Nerve • Origin : It emerges from Medulla.O. to leave the skull with 9th & 11th Ns. through jugular F. • It has motor, sensory & parasympathetic Fs. • Course : • It has 2sensory ganglia , superiorwithin j.F. & inferior just below j.F. • At inf. ganglion, cranial root ofaccessory N. joins vagus N. and distributed in its pharyngeal &recurrent laryngeal branches.

  30. Vagus nerve : • It descends in the upper part ofneckwithin carotid sheath, firstly between int.j.v.& int.c.Ar., then between Int. j.v. & C.C.Ar. • At the root of neck, it lies in front ofto 1st part of subclavian Ar. It passes through thorax and pierces diaphragm at esophageal opening to end in abdomen. • It innervates heart,/ respiratory passages, / G.I.T.( pharynx- left colic flexure), liver & pancreas.

  31. Branches of Vagus nerve : From superior ganglion : 1-meningeal branch. to dura of posterior cranial fossa 2-auricular br. for ext. acoustic meatus. From inferior ganglion :3-Pharyngeal br. : to form Motor part of pharyngeal plexus, to supply all Ms.of pharynxexcept Stylopharyngeus (by glossopharyngeal N.), + all Ms.of soft palateexcept tensor veli palatini (by mandibular division of trigeminal).4-Superior laryngeal N. ,it divides into : a-Internal laryngeal N., pierces thyrohyoid membrane with sup. laryngeal artery, to supply sensory F. to m.m. of upper part of larynx above vocal fold.b-External laryngeal N., to supply Cricothyroid ms.

  32. Branches of Vagus nerve : 5- cardiac branches :parasymp.,to end in cardiac plexus in the thorax. 6- Right recurrent laryngeal N. : it hooks behind 1st Subclavian artery to ascend in groove bet. trachea & esoph. to supply all Ms.of larynx (motor) except Cricothyroid , + m.m. of larynx (sensory), below vocal folds.7- left R.L.N. : it hooks around arch of aorta ,behind ligamentum arteriosum, then ascends into neck in groove bet. trachea & esoph….as Rt.R.L.N.

  33. Testing the Integrity of Vagus nerve : • Depends on testing the function of branches to pharynx, soft palate,& larynx. • Pharyngeal reflex or gag-reflex may be tested by touching lateral wall of pharynx with spatula causing the patient to gag dueto contraction of pharyngeal Ms. • Innervation of soft palate can be tested by saying ‘ah’, normally soft palate rises anduvula moves backward in the middle. • Lesion of innervation of larynx may reveal in horseness or absence of voice, and laryngoscopic examination may reveal paralysis of abductor muscles of larynx.

  34. ACCESSORY NERVE

  35. Accessory nerve • It is purely motor N., formed by union of cranial & spinal roots. • Cranial root arises from Medulla.O. • Spinal root arises from upper 5 or 6 cervical segments of spinal cord, It enters skull through the foramen magnum to join the cranial root within the cranial cavity. • Both roots form the united trunk that emerges from jugular F. Distribution of Accessory N.

  36. Branches of Accessory nerve : • Cranial root separates from spinal root to join vagus at its inferior ganglion to distribute through its pharyngeal & laryngeal branches to supply Ms. of soft palate & pharynx (via pharyngeal plexus) and to Ms. of larynx (via R.L.N, except cricothyroid). • Spinal root pierces deep surface of Sternomastoid to supply it , then emerges from posterior border of sternomastoid and crosses post. triangle, lying on the levator scapulae, finally passes deep to trapezius to supply it. Distribution of Accessory N.

  37. Testing the Integrity of Accessory nerve : • Accessory N. supplies sternomastoid & trapezius Ms. by its spinal root. • Aske the patient to rotate head to one side against resistance causing contraction of sternomastoid of opposite side. • Aske the patient to shrug the shoulders causing action of trapezius, to compare the power on the 2 sides. Distribution of Accessory N.

  38. Pharyngeal plexus of nerves • It lies on the outer wall of pharynx, mostly on the midlle constrictor. • It is formed ofpharyngeal branches of glossopharyngeal N.

Distribution of Hypoglossal N.

  40. Hypoglossal Nerve • It descends with the vagus N. between int.j.v. & int.C.artey, then crosses in frontofinternal & external carotid arteries. • Then it crosses in front oflingual artery to enter submandibular region.

  41. Branches of Hypoglossal Nerve : • Meningeal branch. • N.to Thyrohyoid & Geniohyoid (via C1). • Descending branchof hypoglossal C1 leaves hypoglossal N. in front ofcarotid sheath to join the descendingcervical N.(C2,3) of cervical plexus to form a loop ofAnsacervicalis. • Ansa cervicalis loop supplies omohyoid, sternohyoid & sternothyroid Ms. • Muscular branches : to all Ms.of tongue, Except palatoglossus, (supplied by pharyngeal plexus) Distribution of Hypoglossal N.

  42. Hypoglossal N. lesion • Ask the patient to protrude his tongue : • A, Rt.&Lt. genioglossus muscle contract together. • B, tip of tongue is protuded anteriorly in the middle line. • C, lesion of hypoglossal N. on Rt. Side leads to atrophy & wrinklingof the tongue on the same side of lesion. • D, when asking patient to protrude the tongue, the tip deviates to side of the lesion.

  43. Cervical Plexus : Formation : • It is formed by union of anteriorrami of upper 4 cervicalnerves, which form loops that lie in front of levator scapulae & scalenus medius. • It lies behindprevertebral layer of deep cervical fascia , int. J.V.,carotid sheath & Sternomastoid.
