Accessory nerve
The accessory nerve is a spinal nerve that supplies the sternocleidomastoid and trapezius muscles.

Auriculotemporal nerve
The auriculotemporal nerve is a branch of the mandibular nerve (V3) that runs with the superficial temporal artery and vein, and provides sensory innervation to various regions on the side of the head.

Carotid canal
The carotid canal is the passageway in the temporal bone through which the internal carotid artery enters the middle cranial fossa from the neck.
New!!: Tympanic nerve and Carotid canal · See more »
Deep petrosal nerve
The deep petrosal nerve (large deep petrosal nerve) is given off from the internal carotid plexus, and runs through the carotid canal lateral to the internal carotid artery.
New!!: Tympanic nerve and Deep petrosal nerve · See more »
Glossopharyngeal nerve
The glossopharyngeal nerve, known as the ninth cranial nerve (CN IX), is a mixed nerve that carries afferent sensory and efferent motor information.
New!!: Tympanic nerve and Glossopharyngeal nerve · See more »
Inferior ganglion of glossopharyngeal nerve
The inferior ganglion of the glossopharyngeal nerve (petrous ganglion) is larger than the superior ganglion and is situated in a depression in the lower border of the petrous portion of the temporal bone which is named fossula petrosa.

Inferior tympanic canaliculus
The inferior tympanic canaliculus is a small passage of the tympanic branch of the glossopharyngeal nerve and inferior tympanic artery.
New!!: Tympanic nerve and Inferior tympanic canaliculus · See more »
Internal carotid plexus
The internal carotid plexus (internal carotid plexus) is situated on the lateral side of the internal carotid artery, and in the plexus there occasionally exists a small gangliform swelling, the carotid ganglion, on the under surface of the artery.
New!!: Tympanic nerve and Internal carotid plexus · See more »
Jugular fossa
The jugular fossa is a deep depression in the inferior part of the base of the skull.
New!!: Tympanic nerve and Jugular fossa · See more »
Lesser petrosal nerve
The lesser petrosal nerve (also known as the small superficial petrosal nerve) is the General visceral efferent (GVE) component of the glossopharyngeal nerve (CN IX), carrying parasympathetic pre-ganglionic fibers from the tympanic plexus to the parotid gland.
New!!: Tympanic nerve and Lesser petrosal nerve · See more »
Otic ganglion
The otic ganglion is a small parasympathetic ganglion located immediately below the foramen ovale in the infratemporal fossa and on the medial surface of the mandibular nerve.
New!!: Tympanic nerve and Otic ganglion · See more »
Paraganglioma
A paraganglioma is a rare neuroendocrine neoplasm that may develop at various body sites (including the head, neck, thorax and abdomen).
New!!: Tympanic nerve and Paraganglioma · See more »
Parasympathetic nervous system
The parasympathetic nervous system (PSNS) is one of the two divisions of the autonomic nervous system (a division of the peripheral nervous system (PNS)), the other being the sympathetic nervous system.

Parotid gland
The parotid gland is a major salivary gland in many animals.
New!!: Tympanic nerve and Parotid gland · See more »
Postganglionic nerve fibers
In the autonomic nervous system, fibers from the ganglion to the effector organ are called postganglionic fibers.
New!!: Tympanic nerve and Postganglionic nerve fibers · See more »
Superior cervical ganglion
The superior cervical ganglion (SCG) is part of the autonomic nervous system (ANS) responsible for maintaining homeostasis of the body.
New!!: Tympanic nerve and Superior cervical ganglion · See more »
Sympathetic nervous system
The sympathetic nervous system (SNS) is one of the two main divisions of the autonomic nervous system, the other being the parasympathetic nervous system.
New!!: Tympanic nerve and Sympathetic nervous system · See more »
Temporal bone
The temporal bones are situated at the sides and base of the skull, and lateral to the temporal lobes of the cerebral cortex.
New!!: Tympanic nerve and Temporal bone · See more »
Trigeminal nerve
The trigeminal nerve (the fifth cranial nerve, or simply CN V) is a nerve responsible for sensation in the face and motor functions such as biting and chewing; it is the largest of the cranial nerves.
New!!: Tympanic nerve and Trigeminal nerve · See more »
Tympanic cavity
The tympanic cavity is a small cavity surrounding the bones of the middle ear.
New!!: Tympanic nerve and Tympanic cavity · See more »
Tympanic plexus
In the tympanic cavity, the tympanic nerve (a branch of CN IX) divides into branches which, along with sympathetic fibres from the carotid plexus, form the tympanic plexus. This plexus is located on the surface of the promontory.
New!!: Tympanic nerve and Tympanic plexus · See more »
Vagus nerve
The vagus nerve, historically cited as the pneumogastric nerve, is the tenth cranial nerve or CN X, and interfaces with parasympathetic control of the heart, lungs, and digestive tract.
