It acts to transmit sound waves from air in the external auditory canal (EAC) to the ossicles of the middle ear. • Gross anatomy • ------------------------- • The tympanic membrane is shaped like a flat cone pointing into the middle and inner ear. It attaches to an incomplete ring of bone along the wall of the EAC, the tympanic annulus. It consists of three layers (from external to internal): • cutaneum (skin) • radiatum circulare (collagen fibres) • mucosum (epithelium) • There are two distinct portions of the membrane: • pars tensa: the tense portion of the membrane is the larger portion and extends from the anterior and posterior malleolar folds at the level of the lateral process of the malleus to the inferior edge of the membrane • pars flaccida: the flaccid portion of the membrane is much smaller and is the portion of the membrane above the anterior and posterior malleolar folds • Quadrant separation • ---------------------------------- • It is anatomically separated into four quadrants: • anterosuperior • anteroinferior • posteroinferior • posterosuperior • This is important because vessels and nerves (specifically chorda tympani nerve) pass through the superior portion of the membrane. Additionally, the light reflex (cone of light) is specific to the anteroinferior portion of the membrane. Thus, when intervention is performed, the posteroinferior portion of the membrane is chosen. • Innervation • ------------------- • The membrane has two distinct nerve supplies based on the different embryological origins of the internal and external surfaces. • external surface • -------------------------- • predominantly the auriculotemporal nerve (CN V3) • greater auricular nerve (C2, C3) • some authors report some minor contribution from the auricular branch (Arnold's nerve) of the vagus nerve (CN X) • internal surface: tympanic branch of the glossopharyngeal nerve (CN IX) • #tympanicmembrane #anatomyvideos #usmlevideos #anatomyoftympanicmembrane #tympanicmembraneanatomy #animatedmedicalvideos #anatomyanimatedvideos #usmlestep1videos #mbbs#neetpg #fmge #tympanicmembraneanimation #tympanicmembranestructure #tympanicmembrane #anatomy #anatomyvideos #anatomylectures #anatomylecture
