NERVES AND VESSELS OF PAROTID GLAND
![Page 2: Nerves and vessels of parotid gland](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061613/556b90f6d8b42ada358b477c/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
INTRODUCTION Largest of the salivary
glands Serous type Average weight of 25 gm Extent : lies below the
external acoustic meatus between the mandible and sternocleidomastoid
Location : Retromandibular fossa
![Page 3: Nerves and vessels of parotid gland](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061613/556b90f6d8b42ada358b477c/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Shape : inverted pyramidal
It has 4 surfaces:Superior surfaceSuperficial surfaceAnteriomedial surfacePosteriomedial surface
It tapers inferiorly to a blunt apex
It secretes saliva through Stenson Duct or Parotid Duct in the oral cavity
![Page 4: Nerves and vessels of parotid gland](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061613/556b90f6d8b42ada358b477c/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
FACIAL NERVE It comes out of the cranial
cavity through the stylomastoid foramen at the base of the skull between the styloid and mastoid processes of temporal bone
It immediately gives off the branches : Nerve to Posterior belly
of digastric Nerve to Stylohyoid Posterior auricular nerve
![Page 5: Nerves and vessels of parotid gland](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061613/556b90f6d8b42ada358b477c/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Next the nerve enters the parotid gland from its posteriomedial aspect and passes forwards and downwards behind the mandibular ramus
![Page 6: Nerves and vessels of parotid gland](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061613/556b90f6d8b42ada358b477c/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Within the substance of the gland it branches into: Temporofacial trunk
(superior)- runs upwards and divide intoo Temporal branch -
crosses the zygomatic arch to supply the auricularis anterior and superior, intrinsic muscles on the lateral aspect of the ear, frontal belly of occipitofrontalis muscle, orbicularis oculi and corrugator supercilli
o Zygomatic branch - runs below and parallel to the zygomatic arch to supply the orbicularis oculi
![Page 7: Nerves and vessels of parotid gland](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061613/556b90f6d8b42ada358b477c/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Cervicofacial trunk (inferior) – passes downwards and forwards and divides into:o Buccal branches - 2 in number
1. Upper buccal nerve - runs above the parotid duct -Supply zygomaticus major and levator
labii superioris-Form an infra orbital plexus with superior
labial branches of infraorbital nerve-Also supply levator anguli oris,
zygomaticus minor and levator labii superioris aleque nasi
2. Lower buccal nerve - runs below the parotid duct - Supply buccinator and orbicularis oris- Communicate with buccal branch of
mandibular nerve

oMarginal mandibular branch – Run forwards towards the angle of mandible under platysma- Crosses the body of mandible to supply
risorius and muscles of lower lip and chin- Communicates with the mental nerve
oCervical branch – Emerges from the lower part of parotid gland and runs anterioinferiorly under platysma to the front of the neck- Supplies platysma- Communicates with transverse cutaneous
cervical nerve These 5 terminal branches radiate like a
goose foot through the anterior border of the gland, this branching pattern is termed as pes-anserinus

NERVE SUPPLY The parotid gland is supplied
by: PARASYMPATHETIC(SECRETOMO
TOR)SUPPLY-derived from auriculo temporal nerve Its stimulation produces watery
secretion SYMPATHETIC SUPPLY-derived
from the sympathetic plexus around the external carotid arteryStimulation produces thick sticky
secretion SENSORY SUPPLY- derived from
Auriculo-temporal nerveGreat auricular nerve

POSTGANGLIONIC FIBRES OF PARASYMPATHETIC SUPPLY
Arise from the cells of the ganglion and pass through the auriculo-temporal nerve to supply the parotid gland
![Page 13: Nerves and vessels of parotid gland](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061613/556b90f6d8b42ada358b477c/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)

ARTERIAL SUPPLY From the external carotid artery
and its branches and superficial temporal arteries
It pierces the lower part of posteriomedial surface to enter the gland where it occupies the deep zone of the gland
Within the gland it divides into Maxillary artery- emerges from
the anteriomedial surface Superficial temporal artery- gives
off its transverse facial branch which emerges through the anterior border and it ascends to leave its upper limit
Posterior auricular artery may also branch from it and leave by its posteriomedial surface
![Page 16: Nerves and vessels of parotid gland](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061613/556b90f6d8b42ada358b477c/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)

VENOUS DRAINAGE Into retromandibular vein
and external jugular vein The retromandibular vein
is formed by the union of Maxillary veins Superficial Temporal veins
It lies superficial to external carotid artery
It descends in the parotid gland and emerges behind the apex of the gland
![Page 18: Nerves and vessels of parotid gland](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061613/556b90f6d8b42ada358b477c/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Here it usually divides into :Anterior branch – passes forward to
join the facial vein and form the common facial vein
Posterior branch – joins the posterior auricular vein to form the external jugular vein

PATEY’S FACIOVENOUS PLANE
CONNECTED BY ISTHMUS
PAROTID GLAND
SUPERFICIAL
LOBE(LARGE)
DEEP LOBE(SMALL
)
The branches of facial nerve passes forward through the isthmus . The plane in between the superficial and deep lobes in which
nerves and veins lie has been designated as ‘Patey’s Faciovenous Plane’.
SIGNIFICANCE: This plane helps the surgeons to remove the parotid tumor without damaging the nerve.

CLINICAL
Also known as gustatory sweating or auriculo-temporal nerve syndrome
Commonly occurs after parotid surgery or trauma
It reflects the aberrant innervation of sweat glands on the face by regrowing parasympathetic secretomotor axons that would have previously innervated the parotid gland
It is characterized by o Sweating o Warmth o Redness of the face as a result of salivary stimulation by the
smell or taste of food
