Study Notes
Innervation and Blood Vessels
- The nerve innervating the Carotid Sinus is the glossopharyngeal nerve (IX).
- The common carotid artery and internal carotid artery are covered by the carotid sheath.
- The superior sagittal sinus drains the skull and cranial cavity.
Veins and Arteries
- The internal jugular vein initially lies posterior to the internal carotid artery and then moves laterally and anterior to the common carotid artery.
Potential Spaces in the Neck
- One true fact about the potential spaces in the neck is that the retropharyngeal space can be distended by air from the nasal cavity during inspiration.
Clinical Relevance
- A clinical relevance of the retropharyngeal space is that it can be involved in the spread of infection from the nasal cavity.
Anatomy of the Neck
- The anterior scalene muscle is a border of the posterior triangle of the neck.
Learning Outcomes
- A learning outcome NOT included in the lecture on Surface Anatomy of the Neck is knowledge of thoracic viscera.
Recommended Reading
- Information about the fascia of the neck can be found in Section 8 of the recommended reading book 'Clinically Oriented Anatomy'.
Lecture Topics
