On this tutorial, will will briefly look at the arteries of the head and neck. The common carotid arteries split into two main branches – the internal carotid artery and the external carotid artery. The external carotid artery is the only division of the common carotid that gives branches to the neck region and supplies the external structures of the head and face. It has eight branches which can be remembered by the mnemonic Some Anatomists Like Freaking Out Poor Medical Students.
The first branch of the external carotid artery is the superior thyroid artery which supplies the superior portion of the thyroid gland, the infrahyoid muscles, and sternocleidomastoid. The superior thyroid artery branches into the superior laryngeal branch and the sternocleidomastoid branch supplying the larynx and the sternocleidomastoid muscle respectively.
The second branch is the ascending pharyngeal artery which branches off to supply the pharynx, the soft palate, the prevertebral muscles, the middle ear, and the cranial meninges.
