  • Features
    large salivary gland
    situated in anterior part of digastric triangle
    size of walnut
    weighs about 15-20gms
    roughly J - shaped
    posterior border of mylohyoid divides the gland into
    large superficial part
    small deep part
    Coverings
    partially enclosed b/n two layers of investing layer of deep cervical fascia
    superficial layer
    covers the inferior surface of gland - is attached to base of mandible
    deep layer
    covers the medial surface of gland - attached to mylohyoid line
    Superficial Part
    fills the digastric triangle
    Extent
    superiorly - deep to mandible upto mylohyoid line
    inferiorly - overlaps stylohyoid & posterior belly of digastric
    Surfaces
    inferior
    lateral
    medial
    Relations
    Inferior surface
    skin
    platysma
    cervical branch of facial N deep fascia
    facial V
    submandibular lymph node
    Relations
    Lateral surface
    submandibular fossa insertion of medial pterygoid facial A
    Medial Surface
    mylohyoid
    hyoglossus
    styloglossus
    Deep Part
    small in size
    Location
    deep to mylohyoid
    superficial to hyoglossus Extent
    posteriorly - continuous with superficial part round the posterior border of mylohyoid
    anteriorly - it extents upto posterior end of sublingual gland
    Relations
    laterally - mylohyoid
    medially - hyoglossus
    above - lingual N with submandibular ganglion
    below - hypoglossal N
    Submandibular Duct / Wharton’s duct
    Thin walled
    about 5cms long
    emerges at the anterior end of deep part
    runs forward on hyoglossus
    b/n lingual & hypoglossus Ns
    At the anterior border of hyoglossus, the duct is crossed by lingual N
    opens on the floor of mouth on the summit of sublingual papilla, at the side of frenulum of the tongue.
    Blood supply & Lymphatic Drainage
    Arterial Supply - Facial A
    Venous Drainage - Common facial V or Lingual V
    Lymphatic drainage - submandibular Lymph nodes
    Nerve Supply
    Supplied by branches from
    submandibular ganglion.
    Branches convey
    secretomotor fibres sensory fibres
    vasomotor sympathetic fibres from the plexus on facial A
    Nerve Supply
    Superior Salivatory Nucleus
    Nervous Intermedius
    Facial N Chorda tympani N
    Joins Lingual N
    Submandibular Ganglion (Relay)
    Submandibular Gland
