Study Notes

Facial Nerve Components and Functions

  • The facial nerve consists of taste sensory fibers, somatic sensory fibers, and parasympathetic pre-ganglionic fibers.
  • The nerve of the 2nd bronchial arch is responsible for facial expression muscles.

Facial Nerve Locations

  • The geniculate ganglion is located in the geniculate fossa of the petrous part of the temporal bone.

Veins and Drainage Areas

  • The anterior facial vein is a part of the facial vein before connecting to the anterior branch of the retromandibular.
  • The commune facial vein is a part of the facial vein after connecting to the anterior branch of the retromandibular.
  • The superficial temporal vein drains the venous blood of the forehead and orbit and connects to the cavernous sinus.
  • The maxillary vein receives drainage from the infratemporal and pterygopalatine fossae.

Arteries and Branches for Facial Nutrition

  • The facial artery is a branch of the external carotid artery and has a tortuous path with several branches for the face.
  • The angular artery is connected to the dorsal nasal branch, establishing a connection between the external and internal carotid arteries.
  • The infraorbital artery is one of the terminal branches of the maxillary artery.
  • The facial artery has branches including upper labial branches, a branch for the nasal septum, and lower labial & muscular branches for the face.
  • The dorsal nasal artery nourishes the skin of the nose.
  • The transverse facial artery is involved in facial nutrition and has a tortuous path passing through the lower border of the mandible to the corner of the eye.

Arteries and Blood Supply to the Face

  • The superficial temporal artery runs horizontally above the parotid canal & below the zygomatic arch in the cheek.
  • The facial artery is involved in facial blood supply.

Intermediate Nerve Components and Functions

  • The intermediate nerve includes filaments with functions including taste sensory fibers, somatic sensory fibers, and parasympathetic pre-ganglionic fibers.
