Clinical Anatomy by regions, 9th Edition, Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, [2012 For more detailed instructions, any question, cases need help please post to the telegram group of the session  Mandibular nerve The mandibular nerve (CN V3) is the inferior and largest division of the trigeminal nerve.It is formed by the union of sensory fibers from the sensory ganglion and the motor root of CN V in the foramen ovale in the greater wing of the sphenoid, through which the trunk of CN V3 emerges from the cranium to enter the infratemporal fossa. It then divides into a small anterior and a large posterior division. The mandibular nerve has three major cutaneous branches (auriculotemporal, buccal, and mental nerves); it also supplies motor fibers to the muscles of mastication.It is the only division of CN V that carries motor fibers. Branches of the Mandibular Nerve The Main Trunk ✓ Meningeal branch (recurrent branch, nervus spinosus), it runs back into the middle cranial fossa through the foramen spinosum. It supplies the dura mater and the mucous lining of the mastoid air cells. ✓ Nerve to the medial pterygoid muscle, which supplies not only the medial pterygoid, but also the tensor tympani and tensor veli palatini muscles.  The Anterior Division ✓ Masseteric nerve to the masseter muscle and TMJ. ✓ Deep temporal nerves to the temporalis muscle and TMJ. ✓ Nerve to the lateral pterygoid muscle Buccal nerve to the skin and the mucous membrane of the cheek.The buccal nerve does not supply the buccinator muscle (which is supplied by the facial nerve), and it is the only sensory branch of the anterior division of the mandibular nerve.  The Posterior Division ✓ Auriculotemporal nerve, which supplies the skin of the auricle, the external auditory meatus, the temporomandibular joint, and the scalp.This nerve also conveys postganglionic parasympathetic secretomotor fibers from the otic ganglion to the parotid salivary gland. ✓ Lingual nerve, which descends in front of and medial to the inferior alveolar nerve and enters the mouth. It then runs forward on the side of the tongue and crosses the submandibular duct. In its course, it is joined by the chorda tympani nerve.and it supplies the mucous membrane of the anterior two thirds of the tongue and the floor of the mouth. It also gives off preganglionic parasympathetic secretomotor fibers to the submandibular ganglion. ✓ Inferior alveolar nerve, which enters the mandibular canal to supply the teeth of the lower jaw and emerges through the mental foramen (mental nerve) to supply the skin of the chin. Before entering the canal, it gives off the mylohyoid nerve, which supplies the mylohyoid muscle and the anterior belly of the digastric muscle ✓ Communicating branch, which frequently runs from the inferior alveolar nerve to the lingual nerve. The branches of the posterior division of the mandibular nerve are sensory except the nerve to the mylohyoid muscle. FIGURE 2: Infratemporal and submandibular regions. Otic Ganglion The otic ganglion.is a parasympathetic ganglion that is located medial to the mandibular nerve just below the skull, and it is adherent to the nerve to the medial pterygoid muscle. The preganglionic fibers originate in the glossopharyngeal nerve, and they reach the ganglion via the lesser petrosal nerve. The postganglionic secretomotor fibers reach the parotid salivary gland via the auriculotemporal nerve The Maxillary Nerve second division of the trigeminal nerve arises from the trigeminal ganglion and lies in the dura, lateral to the cavernous sinus. It passes through the foramen rotundum and enters the pterygopalatine fossa. It enters the orbit through the inferior orbital fissure where it is called the infra- orbital nerve. Which ends on the face by dividing into several branches: a-inferior palpebral ( to conjunctiva, and skin of lower eyelid ). b-nasal branch ( to skin of nose). c-superior labial ( to mucous metp.brane of the mouth and skin ofthe lips Clinical problems THANK YOU
