Aorta, Heart - Coggle Diagram
Aorta
Brachiocephalic
R. Common Carotid
External Carotid
Medial Artery
Ascending pharyngeal artery - supplies blood to the pharyngeal walls, soft palate, and meninges of the brain
-
-
Posterior Artery
-
Occipital Artery - supplies blood to the suprahyoid muscles, SCM muscle, scalp, and meningeal tissues in the occipital region
Anterior Artery
Facial Artery - supplies blood to the face, zygomatic area, nasal area, infraorbital rim, and the orbital region
-
Ascending Palatine Artery - supplies blood to the soft palate, palatine muscles, and palatine tonsils. - It's a major source of blood hemorrhaging if nicked during a tonsillectomy and it's not caught
-
-
-
Lingual Artery
Lingual - superior to the hyoid bone: suprahyoid muscles, floor of the mouth and tongue
-
Sublingual - supplies blood to the mylohyoid muscle, sublingual salivary glands, and mucous membrane of the floor of the mouth
-
Superior Thyroid Artery - Supplies blood to the tissues inferior to the hyoid bones: infrahyoid muscles, SCM muscle, thyroid gland, and muscles of the larynx
-
Maxillary Artery
Inferior Alveolar Artery - supplies blood to the floor of the mouth, mental region, muscles of the tongue - enters mandibular foramen, goes through the mandibular canal and exits through the mental foramen
Mylohyoid Artery - supplies blood to the mylohyoid muscles and muscles of the tongue - doesn't go through mandibular canal, it branches off before inferior alveolar artery enter canal and follows along the inside of the ramus
-
-
Middle meningeal Artery - supplies blood to the meninges of the brain - passes through the Foramen Spinosum on the sphenoid bone
-
-
-
-
Posterior Superior Alveolar Artery - supplies blood to the posterior maxillary teeth and their periodontium (tissue and bone), maxillary sinus - enters posterior superior alveolar foramen
Infraorbital Artery - supplies blood to the cheek area and face - exits through the infraorbital foramen
-
Anterior Superior Alveolar Artery - supplies blood to the anterior maxillary teeth and their periodontium (bone and tissue)
-
Sphenopalatine Artery - supplies blood to the anterior portion of the hard palate and nasal cavity - goes through the infraorbital sulcus
-
-
Internal Carotid - goes through the carotid canal into the skull - supplies blood to the brain, orbits of the eye, and some of the forehead
