Parotid gland
Hmm the parotid gland is curious. I wonder...
the superior border extends from the zygomatic arch to the posterior of the the temporalmandibular joint! the apex of the wedge-shaped gland is situated post to the angle of the mandible.. the base lies in the post part of the mandibular fossa.. the ant border is superficial to the masseter YES!
now the relations? the ant relation of the parotid gland is the masseter?
post there is the facial nerve?
ant medially there are masseter and the ramus of the mandiblee
post medial there is the styloid process of the temp bone and the associated muscle.. the sternocleidomastoid the is the carotid sheath with internal jug vein carotid art vagus nerve.. as well as cranial nerves 9-12.. ok good wad else? a lot more to go! in the deep surface of the gland it is in contact with the pharyngeal wall
secretomotor is by parasympathetic nerve frm the the glossopharyngeal nerve which travels to the inferior salivary ganglion and then to the tympanic branch reaching the tympanic plexus.. then it continues to synapse in the the otic ganglion and then! by the auriculotemporal nerve to innervat the gland
sup cerv ganglion provide symp nerve for vasoconstriction of vessel in the gland
in the gland the relations from medial to lateral... medial to lateral... yes medial to lateral is the facial nerve the retromandibular artery into max and sup temp art and the vein sama sama plus plus plus lymph nodes!
Mistake: ext carotid gives max and sup tem retromandi give max and sup tem.. there is NO retromandi artery!
