We reported the innervation pattern of the extratemporal ramification of the facial nerve in man at the VI International Symposium in the Facial Nerve. By further investigation, we obtained additional information on the innervation pattern.doi:10.1007/978-3-642-85090-5_84M. Asai...
Thetemporalis muscleflap (TMF) is a robust, pliable, myofascial flap, well vascularized by the anterior and posterior branches of the deep temporal artery, a branch of the second portion of the internal maxillary artery. The TMF can be harvested using an openapproach. It provides an available...
The neurotrophin Nerve Growth factor (NGF) is known to influence the phenotype of mature nociceptors, for example by altering synthesis of neuropeptides, and changes in NGF levels have been implicated in the pathophysiology of chronic pain conditions suc
Judging from the number of labeled nerve cell bodies the majority of fibers contibuting to the perivascular innervation originate from the superior cervical, sphenopalatine and trigeminal ganglia. A moderate labeling was seen in the otic ganglion, whereas only few perikarya were labeled in the ...

The tiny inferior tympanic canaliculus lies between the jugular fossa and vertical segment of the carotid canal; it contains the Jacobson nerve, which is a branch of the glossopharyngeal nerve. The internal carotid artery traverses the petrous bone within the carotid canal. This canal has a ...
And so that might be a branch of that coming here. They described in some cadaveric studies how that can come off, above where the chorda tympani never is, but ultimately course over the chorda tympani before going more inferiorly. So that may be a branch of that there. A little bit...
In this study we evaluate the feasibility of using the deep temporal nerves as donors for innervation of free muscle grafts in the periorbital region. Preserved and fresh cadaver facial halves are dissected, and the course of the deep temporal nerves delineated. We find the middle branch of ...
