16
www.nayyarENT.com
22-07-2012
Pharyngeal muscles
 Superior constrictor
- Quadrilateral muscle
- Arises from the lower part of the posterior margin of the
medial pterygoid plate
-Sphincter that prevents reflux into the nasopharynx and
has a peristaltic function during swallowing
17
www.nayyarENT.com
22-07-2012
 Pharyngobasilar fascia
-lies in the gap between the superior constrictor and the skull
base, the sinus of Morgagni, fuses with the buccopharyngeal
fascia to form a single layer of fascia
-the auditory tube passes through this gap
18
www.nayyarENT.com
22-07-2012
 Palatopharyngeal (velopharyngeal) sphincter
- a band of mainly superior constrictor muscle fibers
- arises from the upper surface of the palatine aponeurosis
-the band ridges the pharyngeal wall as Passavant’s ridge , seen
when the soft palate is elevated
19
www.nayyarENT.com
22-07-2012
 Salpingopharyngeus
-arises from the posterior region of the pharyngeal
projection of the auditory tube
- elevates the upper lateral wall of the pharynx
 Prevertebral muscles
- the longus capitis arises from the transverse processes of
the cervical vertebrae and inserts into the inferior surface of the
basilar part of the occipital bone
– separates the nasopharynx from the lower clivus and
vertebrae
20

Palatal muscles
 The levator palati muscle
 The tensor palati muscle
 The uvular muscle
 The palatoglossus
 The palatopharyngeus
21
www.nayyarENT.com
22-07-2012
 Levator palati muscle
-situated lateral to the choana
-arises within the pharynx from the inferior surface of the
petrous part of the temporal bone
- inserts into the palatine aponeurosis
- opens the pharyngeal opening of the auditory tube and
elevates the soft palate during swallowing
22
www.nayyarENT.com
22-07-2012
 Tensor palati muscle
-situated lateral to the auditory tube and the levator palati
–arises from the scaphoid fossa at the base of the medial
pterygoid plate
– inserts into the palatine aponeurosis
-actively opens the auditory tube and tenses the soft palate
during swallowing
23
www.nayyarENT.com
22-07-2012
 The uvular muscle: -arises from the posterior nasal spine
of the palatine bones and the palatine aponeurosis, and insert
in the uvula
-stiffen the soft palate
 The palatoglossus: -arises from the soft palate
aponeurosis and passes in front of the palatine tonsil to
insert into the lateral side of the tongue
-acts as a
constrictor of the fauces
 The palatopharyngeus: -arises from the soft palate
aponeurosis and the posterior border of hard palate
-elevates the pharynx during swallowing
24

Masticator muscles
 The lateral pterygoid:
-arises as two heads, one from the greater wing of the sphenoid
and the other from the lateral surface of the lateral pterygoid
plate
– inserts into the neck of the mandibular condyle
– opens the mouth and protrudes the mandible
25
www.nayyarENT.com
22-07-2012
 The medial pterygoid:
-arises in the pterygoid fossa from the medial surface of the
lateral pterygoid plate and maxillary tuberosity
-insert into the medial surface of the ramus and the angle of
the mandible
-closes the mouth
26

BLOOD VESSELS OF THE
NASOPHARYNX- ARTERIES
 The ascending palatine artery
-branch of the facial artery
-ascends towards the skull base on the external surface of
the pharynx and then winds medially over the upper border
of the superior constrictor muscle
-supplies the levator palati, the soft palate, the superior
constrictor and the auditory tube
27
www.nayyarENT.com
22-07-2012
BLOOD VESSELS OF THE NASOPHARYNXARTERIES
 The ascending pharyngeal artery
-branch of the external carotid
-ascends vertically between the carotid sheath and the pharynx to
the skull base
-supplies the lateral and posterior pharyngeal wall above the level
of the palate
28
www.nayyarENT.com
22-07-2012
BLOOD VESSELS OF THE NASOPHARYNXARTERIES
 The ascending cervical artery
–arises from the thyrocervical trunk or from the inferior thyroid
artery
–winds upwards behind the carotid sheath
-anastomoses with the ascending pharyngeal artery
29
www.nayyarENT.com
22-07-2012
BLOOD VESSELS OF THE NASOPHARYNXARTERIES
 The maxillary artery
–larger terminal branch of the external carotid
-travels through the parotid gland, passes between the ramus of
the mandible and the sphenomandibular ligament, passes either
deep or superficial to the lateral pterygoid muscle and enters the
pterygopalatine fossa
30
www.nayyarENT.com
22-07-2012
BLOOD VESSELS OF THE NASOPHARYNXARTERIES
 The maxillary artery – divided into three
parts:
-mandibular
- pterygoid
-pterygopalatine
31
www.nayyarENT.com
22-07-2012
BLOOD VESSELS OF THE NASOPHARYNX - VEINS
 submucosal plexus of veins communicates with an external
pharyngeal plexus of veins
 veins corresponding to all branches of the maxillary artery then
drain into the pterygoid plexus
 main drainage of the pterygoid plexus is into the internal jugular
vein via the maxillary, retromandibular and common facial veins
32

22-07-2012
LYMPHATICS OF THE NASOPHARYNX
 The retropharyngeal lymph nodes
Medial retropharyngeal lymph nodes
Lateral retropharyngeal lymph nodes
( nodes of Rouviere )
 Upper jugular lymph node ( level IIb )
33
www.nayyarENT.com
22-07-2012
NERVES OF THE NASOPHARYNX
 motor, sensory and autonomic nerve supply - pharyngeal
plexus
 lies medial to the buccopharyngeal fascia on the external
surface of the constrictor muscle
 supplies motor innervation to all muscles of the pharynx,
except stylopharyngeus
34
www.nayyarENT.com
22-07-2012
NERVES OF THE NASOPHARYNX
 Stylopharyngeus- supplied by the muscular branch of the
glossopharyngeal
 sensory supply is from the nasopharyngeal branches of the
pharyngeal plexus, pharyngeal branches of the maxillary
nerve and the glossopharyngeal nerve
