Peripheral nervous system

Cranial nerve 5- Trigeminal nerve.

Branches include:V. Copthalmic) -

sensory before
foramen ovale
mixed after foramen ovale

joined by a motor roof near foramen ovale for skeletal muscle.

Distribution of
Trigeminal nerve:

sensory from:
Somatic
alanterior 45 scalp
by face
c) external acoustic meatus
obanterior 23 tongue
e) teeth
A mucous membranes of nasal and oral cavities, paranasal sinuses.

Motor to skeletal muscle:

1) muscles of mastication, masseter, pterygoids, temporalis (MAST)
a) mylohyoid, anterior
oligastric, tensor tympani, tensor veli palatini(MATT)
Visceral motor:
1) Carries Parasympathetic postganglionic fibres.

Organisation of Nerves
Somatic Plexus:o of of spinal
a network nerves derived totally from ventral rami nerves.

-
innervates skeletal (stricted; voluntary muscle - motor fibres
-
innervate joints (sensory fibres)
-
innervate skin (sensory)
Visceral Plexus: ·
carries autonomic (involuntary) nerve fibres to smooth, cardiac muscle, glands). Also carry
sensory fibres back to this area

Cervical Plexus
