Communication Between the Mylohyoid and Lingual Nerves: Clinical Implications
Int. J. Morphol., Case Report 25(3):561-564, 2007. Communication Between the Mylohyoid and Lingual Nerves: Clinical Implications Comunicación entre los Nervios Milohioideo y Lingual: Implicancias Clínicas *Valéria Paula Sassoli Fazan; **Omar Andrade Rodrigues Filho & ***Fernando Matamala FAZAN, V. P. S.; RODRIGUES FILHO, O. A. & MATAMALA, F. Communication between the mylohyoid and lingual nerves: Clinical implications. Int. J. Morphol., 25(3):561-564, 2007. SUMMARY: The mylohyoid muscle plays an important role in chewing, swallowing, respiration and phonation, being the mylohyoid nerve also closely related to these important functions. It has been postulated that the mylohyoid nerve might have a role in the sensory innervation of the chin and the lower incisor teeth while the role of the mylohyoid nerve in the mandibular posterior tooth sensation is still a controversial issue. Although variations in the course of the mylohyoid nerve in relation to the mandible are frequently found on the dissecting room, they have not been satisfactorily described in the anatomical or surgical literature. It is well known that variations on the branching pattern of the mandibular nerve frequently account for the failure to obtain adequate local anesthesia in routine oral and dental procedures and also for the unexpected injury to branches of the nerves during surgery. Also, anatomical variations might be responsible for unexpected and unexplained symptoms after a certain surgical procedure. We describe the presence of a communicating branch between the mylohyoid and lingual nerves in an adult male cadaver, and discuss its clinical/surgical implications as well as its possible role on the sensory innervation of the tongue. -

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. -

The Mandibular Nerve: the Anatomy of Nerve Injury and Entrapment
5 The Mandibular Nerve: The Anatomy of Nerve Injury and Entrapment M. Piagkou1, T. Demesticha2, G. Piagkos3, Chrysanthou Ioannis4, P. Skandalakis5 and E.O. Johnson6 1,3,4,5,6Department of Anatomy, 2Department of Anesthesiology, Metropolitan Hospital Medical School, University of Athens Greece 1. Introduction The trigeminal nerve (TN) is a mixed cranial nerve that consists primarily of sensory neurons. It exists the brain on the lateral surface of the pons, entering the trigeminal ganglion (TGG) after a few millimeters, followed by an extensive series of divisions. Of the three major branches that emerge from the TGG, the mandibular nerve (MN) comprises the 3rd and largest of the three divisions. The MN also has an additional motor component, which may run in a separate facial compartment. Thus, unlike the other two TN divisions, which convey afferent fibers, the MN also contains motor or efferent fibers to innervate the muscles that are attached to mandible (muscles of mastication, the mylohyoid, the anterior belly of the digastric muscle, the tensor veli palatini, and tensor tympani muscle). Most of these fibers travel directly to their target tissues. Sensory axons innervate skin on the lateral side of the head, tongue, and mucosal wall of the oral cavity. Some sensory axons enter the mandible to innervate the teeth and emerge from the mental foramen to innervate the skin of the lower jaw. An entrapment neuropathy is a nerve lesion caused by pressure or mechanical irritation from some anatomic structures next to the nerve. This occurs frequently where the nerve passes through a fibro-osseous canal, or because of impingement by an anatomic structure (bone, muscle or a fibrous band), or because of the combined influences on the nerve entrapment between soft and hard tissues. -

Intracranial Stimulation of the Trigeminal Nerve in Man II
Journal of Neurology, Neurosurgery, and Psychiatry 1986;49:419-427 Intracranial stimulation of the trigeminal nerve in man II. Reflex responses GIORGIO CRUCCU, DAVID BOWSHER From the Pain ReliefFoundation and Department ofNeurosciences, Walton Hospital, Liverpool, UK SUMMARY The reflex responses evoked by direct electrical stimulation of the intracranial portion of the trigeminal nerve have been studied in 16 subjects undergoing percutaneous retrogasserian ther- mocoagulation for the treatment of trigeminal neuralgia affecting the second or third division. In the obicularis oculi muscle, early and late responses similar to the RI and R2 components of the blink reflex were recorded. The former could be evoked only by stimulation of the second division and its latency was consistent with intermediately fast afferents. A late reflex (50-70 ms) was occa- sionally recorded from the anterior belly of the digastric muscle. The response was sometimes followed by a later activity and showed the features of a polysynaptic reflex. No response was obtained in the jaw elevators when fully relaxed. With the subject voluntarily clenching his teeth, both an early "H-like" response and two silent periods in the background EMG were obtained. The second silent period was similar in the muscles ipsi- and contralateral to intracranial stimulation, while the first silent period was longer in the ipsilateral muscles. Possible mechanisms contributing to the inhibition following stimulation of the mixed portion of the nerve are discussed. Owing to difficulties
