Angle of mandible and mastoid process PAROTID BED PAROTID GLAND INTRODUCTION ➢ Largest of the three major salivary glands. ➢ Occupies the retromandibular space- between the ramus of the mandible in front and the mastoid process and the sternocleido-mastoid muscle behind. ➢ Type of serous salivary gland. ➢ Varies in weight from 14 to 28 gm. ➢ It lies upon the side of the face, immediately below and in front of the external ear. ➢ The main portion of the gland is superficial, somewhat flattened and quadrilateral in form. ➢ The remainder of the gland is irregularly wedge- shaped, and extends deeply inward toward the pharyngeal wall CAPSULE ➢ The gland is enclosed within a capsule continuous with the deep cervical fascia ➢ The layer covering the superficial surface is dense and closely adherent to the gland ➢ Deep portion of the fascia, is thickened to form the stylomandibular ligament which intervenes between the parotid and submaxillary glands THE PAROTID GLAND EXTERNAL FEATURES Three sided pyramid Apex – directed downward SURFACES Base or superior surface Superficial Anteromedial Posteromedial BORDERS Posterior, anterior & medial PROCESSES Facial process Post glenoid process Pterygoid process RELATIONS ➢ Apex – overlaps the post. Belly of digastric and carotid triangle ➢ Cervical branch of facial nerve and two divisions of retro-mandibular vein emerges. RELATIONS SUPERFICIAL SURFACE ➢ Slightly lobulated, ➢ Covered by the superficial fascia containing the facial branches of the great auricular nerve and some small lymph glands. ➢ The fascia which forms the capsule of the gland. ➢ Post. Fibres of platysma ➢ Few lymph nodes ANTERO-MEDIAL SURFACE ➢ The gland is moulded on the posterior border of the ramus of the mandible, ➢ Medial pterygoid and Masseter. ➢ The inner lip of the groove dips,between the two Pterygoid muscles, while the outer lip extends for some distance over the superficial surface of the Masseter; a small portion of this lip immediately below the zygomatic arch is usually detached, and is named the accessory part of the gland. POSTEROMEDIAL SURFACE ➢ Grooved longitudinally against the EAM, the mastoid process,& the anterior border Sternocleidomastoideus. ➢ Posterior belly of digastric ➢ Styloid process & its structures ➢ ECA enter and ICA lies deep to styloid process. SUPERIOR SURFACE ➢ It is concave ➢ Cartilaginous part of external acoustic meatus ➢ Posterior surface of the temporomandibular joint ➢ Superficial temporal vessels and auriculotemporal nerve. BORDERS ANTERIOR BORDER ➢ Parotid duct ➢ Transverse facial vessels ➢ Most of the terminal branches of facial nerve ➢ Accessory parotid gland POSTERIOR BORDER ➢ Overlop the sternocleiodmastoid ➢ Medial border – lateral wall of pharynx STRUCTURES WITHIN THE GLAND FROM DEEP TO SUPERFICIAL ➢ ECA lies at first on the deep surface, and then in the substance of the gland. ➢ It gives its posterior auricular branch from the gland behind- divides into its terminal branches, maxillary and superficial temporal ➢ Maxillary artery runs forward deep to the neck of the mandible ➢ Superficial temporal artery- upward across the zygomatic arch and gives off its transverse facial artery. RETROMANDIBULAR VEIN ➢ Superficial temporal and Maxillary veins- posterior facial vein - this vein splits into anterior and posterior divisions. ➢ The AD unite with the anterior facial to form the common facial vein ➢ The PD unites in the gland with the posterior auricular to form the EJV. PATEY’S FACIOVENOUS PLANE FACIAL NERVE ➢ The facial nerve enters to the gland through upper part of posteromedial surface and divides into its terminal branches within the gland. ➢ Branches leave the gland through antero-medial surface and then anterior border. ➢ Branches of the great auricular nerve pierce the gland to join the facial. STRCTURE OF PAROTID GLAND ➢ Has capsule ➢ Compound tubulo-alveolar gland ➢ The glandular tissue made up of mainly serous acini less mucous acini ➢ Connective tissue containing adipose tissue, blood vessels and inter lobular and intralobular ducts are seen THE PAROTID DUCT ➢ Also known as “STENSON’S DUCT” ➢ About 5 cm in length ➢ Runs forwards, downwards and peirces the following structures Buccal pad of fat Buccopharyngeal fascia Buccinator Oral mucosa – vestibule of mouth opposite the crown of the upper second molar tooth. STRUCTURE OF PAROTID DUCT ➢ It is dense, wall being of considerable thickness ➢ Its canal is about the size of crow-quill, but at its orifice on the oral surface of the cheek its lumen is greatly reduced in size. ➢ It consists of a thick external fibrous coat which contains contractile fibers and ➢ An internal or mucous coat lined with short columnar epithelium. BLOOD SUPPLY ECA- branches given off by that vessel in or near its substance VENOUS DRAINAGE The veins empty themselves into the EJV, through some of its tributaries. LYMPHATIC DRAINAGE The lymphatics -superficial and deep cervical lymph nodes, passing in their course through two or three nodes, placed on the surface and in the substance of the parotid Upper deep cervical lymph nodes NERVE SUPPLY The nerves are derived from the plexus of the sympathetic on the ECA, the facial, the auriculotemporal, and the great auricular nerves.

  • Computed Tomography of the Buccomasseteric Region: 1
    605 Computed Tomography of the Buccomasseteric Region: 1. Anatomy Ira F. Braun 1 The differential diagnosis to consider in a patient presenting with a buccomasseteric James C. Hoffman, Jr. 1 region mass is rather lengthy. Precise preoperative localization of the mass and a determination of its extent and, it is hoped, histology will provide a most useful guide to the head and neck surgeon operating in this anatomically complex region. Part 1 of this article describes the computed tomographic anatomy of this region, while part 2 discusses pathologic changes. The clinical value of computed tomography as an imaging method for this region is emphasized. The differential diagnosis to consider in a patient with a mass in the buccomas­ seteric region, which may either be developmental, inflammatory, or neoplastic, comprises a rather lengthy list. The anatomic complexity of this region, defined arbitrarily by the soft tissue and bony structures including and surrounding the masseter muscle, excluding the parotid gland, makes the accurate anatomic diagnosis of masses in this region imperative if severe functional and cosmetic defects or even death are to be avoided during treatment. An initial crucial clinical pathoanatomic distinction is to classify the mass as extra- or intraparotid. Batsakis [1] recommends that every mass localized to the cheek region be considered a parotid tumor until proven otherwise. Precise clinical localization, however, is often exceedingly difficult. Obviously, further diagnosis and subsequent therapy is greatly facilitated once this differentiation is made. Computed tomography (CT), with its superior spatial and contrast resolution, has been shown to be an effective imaging method for the evaluation of disorders of the head and neck.

  • Atlas of the Facial Nerve and Related Structures
    Rhoton Yoshioka Atlas of the Facial Nerve Unique Atlas Opens Window and Related Structures Into Facial Nerve Anatomy… Atlas of the Facial Nerve and Related Structures and Related Nerve Facial of the Atlas “His meticulous methods of anatomical dissection and microsurgical techniques helped transform the primitive specialty of neurosurgery into the magnificent surgical discipline that it is today.”— Nobutaka Yoshioka American Association of Neurological Surgeons. Albert L. Rhoton, Jr. Nobutaka Yoshioka, MD, PhD and Albert L. Rhoton, Jr., MD have created an anatomical atlas of astounding precision. An unparalleled teaching tool, this atlas opens a unique window into the anatomical intricacies of complex facial nerves and related structures. An internationally renowned author, educator, brain anatomist, and neurosurgeon, Dr. Rhoton is regarded by colleagues as one of the fathers of modern microscopic neurosurgery. Dr. Yoshioka, an esteemed craniofacial reconstructive surgeon in Japan, mastered this precise dissection technique while undertaking a fellowship at Dr. Rhoton’s microanatomy lab, writing in the preface that within such precision images lies potential for surgical innovation. Special Features • Exquisite color photographs, prepared from carefully dissected latex injected cadavers, reveal anatomy layer by layer with remarkable detail and clarity • An added highlight, 3-D versions of these extraordinary images, are available online in the Thieme MediaCenter • Major sections include intracranial region and skull, upper facial and midfacial region, and lower facial and posterolateral neck region Organized by region, each layered dissection elucidates specific nerves and structures with pinpoint accuracy, providing the clinician with in-depth anatomical insights. Precise clinical explanations accompany each photograph. In tandem, the images and text provide an excellent foundation for understanding the nerves and structures impacted by neurosurgical-related pathologies as well as other conditions and injuries.

  • The Five Diaphragms in Osteopathic Manipulative Medicine: Myofascial Relationships, Part 1
    Open Access Review Article DOI: 10.7759/cureus.7794 The Five Diaphragms in Osteopathic Manipulative Medicine: Myofascial Relationships, Part 1 Bruno Bordoni 1 1. Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, Foundation Don Carlo Gnocchi, Milan, ITA Corresponding author: Bruno Bordoni, [email protected] Abstract Working on the diaphragm muscle and the connected diaphragms is part of the respiratory-circulatory osteopathic model. The breath allows the free movement of body fluids and according to the concept of this model, the patient's health is preserved thanks to the cleaning of the tissues by means of the movement of the fluids (blood, lymph). The respiratory muscle has several systemic connections and multiple functions. The founder of osteopathic medicine emphasized the importance of the thoracic diaphragm and body health. The five diaphragms (tentorium cerebelli, tongue, thoracic outlet, thoracic diaphragm and pelvic floor) represent an important tool for the osteopath to evaluate and find a treatment strategy with the ultimate goal of patient well-being. The two articles highlight the most up-to-date scientific information on the myofascial continuum for the first time. Knowledge of myofascial connections is the basis for understanding the importance of the five diaphragms in osteopathic medicine. In this first part, the article reviews the systemic myofascial posterolateral relationships of the respiratory diaphragm; in the second I will deal with the myofascial anterolateral myofascial connections. Categories: Medical Education, Anatomy, Osteopathic Medicine Keywords: diaphragm, osteopathic, fascia, myofascial, fascintegrity, physiotherapy Introduction And Background Osteopathic manual medicine (OMM) was founded by Dr AT Still in the late nineteenth century in America [1]. OMM provides five models for the clinical approach to the patient, which act as an anatomy physiological framework and, at the same time, can be a starting point for the best healing strategy [1].

Popa” University of Medicine and Pharmacy, Iaşi, Romania Abstract The masseteric region is considered by the most researchers as a subdivision of the parotideomasseteric region. Because of its surgical significance, we emphasize it has distinctive morphofunctional features. The aim of this manuscript is to highlight particular characteristics of the masseteric region and practical applications of this concept. The material used was represented by 12 embalmed cephalic extremities dissected in “Ion Iancu” Institute of Anatomy, “Grigore T. Popa” University of Medicine and Pharmacy, Iaşi, 10 operating specimens from the Clinics of Maxillofacial Surgery and Plastic Surgery of the “St. Spiridon” University Hospital, Iaşi, Romania, and computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance (MR) images from the same patients. Our results underline the importance and individual arrangement of the superficial muscular aponeurotic system (SMAS) of the face, at the level of masseteric region. The superficial fascia facilitates adhesion to the dermis of the mimic muscles of the region. This reveals that the masseteric superficial fascia will follow the masticatory movements of the mandible and masseter, but also those of the minor and major zygomaticus muscles. These muscles are the infra-SMAS layer and thus take part in the formation of a unitary complex together with the superficial fascia.
