: Anterior Triangle Answers
: 1. The ansa cervicalis is part of a somatic plexus whereas the ansa subclavia is part of an autonomic trunk.
: - true. Correct.
: 2. The dorsal scapular nerve passes through the interscalene triangle.
: - false ⇒ piercing middle scalene so no. Correct.
: 3. The phrenic nerve is anterior to the prevertebral fascia and posterior to the suprascapular artery.
: - false ⇒ post. to prevertebral fascia. Correct.
: 4. The dorsal scapular nerve generally pierces the middle scalene and the long thoracic nerve pierces the posterior scalene.
: - false ⇒ does not pierce. Correct. But... Both pass through the middle scalene.
: 5. The nerve to thyrohyoid travels, in part, with the hypoglossal nerve.
: - true. Correct.
: 6. The nerve to genioglossus travels, in part, with the lingual nerve.
: - false ⇒ no nerve to genioglossus. Correct.
: 7. The nerve to mylohyoid passes along the inferior surface of the mylohyoid between it and anterior belly of the digastric muscle.
: - true. Correct.
: 8. The lingual nerve passes the medial border of the hyoglossus muscle whereas the lingual artery passes lateral to the hyoglossus muscle.
: - false ⇒ nerve is superficial, artery is deep. Correct.
: 9. The glossopharyngeal nerve and the lingual artery each cross the lateral surface or the hyoglossus.
: - false. Correct.
: 10. The internal laryngeal nerve passes through the thyrohyoid membrane with the superior laryngeal artery.
: - true. Correct.
: 11. The internal laryngeal nerve is sensory (SVA GVA) only whereas the external laryngeal nerve is motor (SVE) only.
: - false ⇒ internal is only GVA. Correct.

: - false ⇒ superficial cervical (if it exists??). Correct. Forms the sling for the intertendon to the clavicle.
: 15. The ansa cervicalis innervates the anterior, but not the posterior belly of the omohyoid.
: - false ⇒ innervates both. Correct.
