Question
Answer
This is a mixed sensory and motor nerve   Vagus Nerve  
🗑
Blood is supplied to the brain by two pairs of arteries, what are they?   carotids and vertebrals  
🗑
These arteries supply blood to the frontal, temporal and parietal lobes   carotids  
🗑
These arteries supply blood to the posterior circulation of the brain   vertebrals  
🗑
supply blood to the frontal lobe/medial aspect of parietal lobe   anterior cerebrals  
🗑
connects the anterior cerebral arteries   anterior communicating artery  
🗑
This artery is the direct continuation of the internal carotids, supplies blood to temporal and parietal lobes   middle cerebral artery  
🗑
This forms a connections between the internal carotids and the posterior cerebral arteries   posterior communicating artery  
🗑
Composed of the internal carotids, anterior and posterior communicating arteries and the anterior, medial and posterior cerebral arteries   Circle of Willis  
🗑
Venous channels that drain the blood from the brain and meninges   dural venous sinuses  
🗑
Lies along the medial plane, drains blood from the upper cerebral hemispheres   superior sagittal sinus  
🗑
found just superior to the corpus callosum, converges with vein of galen to form straight sinus, receives blood from the deep and medial aspects of the cerebral hemispheres   inferior sagittal sinus  
🗑
great cerebral vein   Vein of Galen  
🗑
receives blood from inferior sagittal sinus and vein of galen and empties into confluence   Straight sinus  
🗑
point of convergence of the superior, sagittal, straight, occipital and transverse sinuses   confluence of sinuses  
🗑
extend laterally on each side of cerebrum, right generally larger, drains blood from confluence and petrous portions of the temporal bone   transverse sinus  
🗑
follows an S shaped pattern, drains into jugular vein   Sigmoid sinus  
🗑
Rounded, berrylike outpouchings that arise from arterial bifurcation points, most common in the circle of Willis   sacular aneurysm  
🗑
when a blood clot forms in the brains venous sinuses, prevents blood from draining out of the brain   venous sinus occlusion  
🗑
form of short limbed dwarfism   achrondoplasia  
🗑
Chronic and progressive condition of the arteries in the brain, causes narrowing of blood vessels that leads to blockages and eventually ischemic stroke, hemorrhagic stroke, and seizures   moyamoya disease  
🗑
a tear of the inside layer of a blood vessel wall that allows blood to flow between the layers that make up the vessel wall   dissecting aneurysm of the head  
🗑
a rare congenital blood vessel malformation in the brain that develops prenatally, a tangled mass of abnormal connection of the arteries and the median prosencephalic vein of Markowski   vein of galen malformation  
🗑
