Subperiosteal floor of mouth release (FMR) is based on the assertion that airway obstruction occurs due to a posterior rotation of the tongue secondary to abnormally tight attachments of lingual musculature onto the lingual mandible. From:Clinics in Plastic Surgery,2019 ...

The anatomy of the tongue and floor of the mouth is readily discernible by computed tomography (CT) because of low-density fascial planes that outline the extrinsic musculature, lingual arteries, and hypoglossal nerves. Although the tongue is accessible to the examining finger, few patients can tol...
One lesion was classified as T4 on MR because of infiltration of the alveolar ridge but was classified as T2 at surgery. In 46 patients who underwent surgery, the accuracy of MR was excellent for predicting the relationship of tumor to midline and oral floor musculature. The results obtained ...
Locally advanced oral cavity malignancies involving the tongue or floor of mouth often require detachment from the mandible and en bloc resection of the floor of mouth musculature. In subtotal glossectomy and floor of mouth defects, the reconstructive surgeon must balance the volume of soft-tissue ...
Most tumours of the tongue occur in the middle third, usually on the lateral aspect. Occasionally, these may appear on the ventral surface and rarely on dorsal surface [1–3]. These lesions may spread by infiltrating the tongue musculature, floor of the mouth or even the base.Bahadur, ...
Reconstruction of the surgical defect is of utmost importance to prevent fibrosis and contracture-impairing function, particularly when deep portions of the FOM (reaching the underlying musculature) are included in the surgical specimen. High rates of regional metastases, even in early stages, and the...
surface formed from the free edge of said portion, sized to rest on the suprahyoid musculature, inside the bone contour of the lower jaw, driving haca up to said muscle, the means of fastening made on each side, by two buttons, located at different heights and an intermediate movable hook...
The invention concerns a device for stimulating the suprahyoid musculature (9) on the mouth floor (8), comprising: a body (1) to be placed via a surface (2) onto the mouth floor (8); a conductive electrode surface on the surface (2) of the body (1) to be placed onto the mouth ...
A device for the electrical stimulation of the suprahyoid musculature on the mouth floor with a mouth to be arranged on the base body (1), whereby, at a surface facing the mouth (2) of the base body, a plurality of locally limited stimulation points (4) is formed, which for the ...
