  • The Facial Artery of the Dog
    Oka jimas Folia Anat. Jpn., 57(1) : 55-78, May 1980 The Facial Artery of the Dog By MOTOTSUNA IRIFUNE Department of Anatomy, Osaka Dental University, Osaka (Director: Prof. Y. Ohta) (with one textfigure and thirty-one figures in five plates) -Received for Publication, November 10, 1979- Key words: Facial artery, Dog, Plastic injection, Floor of the mouth. Summary. The course, branching and distribution territories of the facial artery of the dog were studied by the acryl plastic injection method. In general, the facial artery was found to arise from the external carotid between the points of origin of the lingual and posterior auricular arteries. It ran anteriorly above the digastric muscle and gave rise to the styloglossal, the submandibular glandular and the ptery- goid branches. The artery continued anterolaterally giving off the digastric, the inferior masseteric and the cutaneous branches. It came to the face after sending off the submental artery, which passed anteromedially, giving off the digastric and mylohyoid branches, on the medial surface of the mandible, and gave rise to the sublingual artery. The gingival, the genioglossal and sublingual plical branches arose from the vessel, while the submental artery gave off the geniohyoid branches. Posterior to the mandibular symphysis, various communications termed the sublingual arterial loop, were formed between the submental and the sublingual of both sides. They could be grouped into ten types. In the face, the facial artery gave rise to the mandibular marginal, the anterior masseteric, the inferior labial and the buccal branches, as well as the branch to the superior, and turned to the superior labial artery.

Morphol., 30(2):504-509, 2012. SUMMARY: The aim of this study was to investigate the course of the facial vessels according to several mandibular landmarks in living individuals using multidetector computed tomography angiography (MDCTA) to determine these related to sex and side. This study was conducted in the Radiology Department, Meram Faculty of Medicine, Necmettin Erbakan University (Konya, Turkey). In total, sixty faces from 30 specimens (15 males and 15 females) with symptoms and signs of vascular disease were evaluated for the facial vessels by MDCTA scan. The facial vessel parameters were measured according to the reference points (mandibular angle, mental protuberance, mental foramen and facial midline). The distance from the point at which the facial artery first appears in the lower margin of the mandible to the mandibular angle for right and left facial artery were observed as 3.53±0.66 cm and 3.31±0.73 cm in males, respectively. These distances were determined as 2.91±0.52 cm and 3.35±0.48 cm in females.

  • Lingual Perimandibular Vessels Associated with Life-Threatening Bleeding: an Anatomic Study
    Mardinger.qxd 1/25/07 2:55 PM Page 127 Lingual Perimandibular Vessels Associated with Life-Threatening Bleeding: An Anatomic Study Ofer Mardinger, DMD1/Yifat Manor, DMD2/Eitan Mijiritsky, DMD3/Abraham Hirshberg, MD, DMD4 Purpose: To describe the anatomy of the lingual perimandibular vessels and emphasize the distance to the bone. Materials and Methods: The hemifacial lower third was dissected in 12 human cadavers. The blood vessels in the floor of the mouth were exposed using sagittal incisions at the canine, mental foramen, and second molar areas. Results: The diameter of the dissected vessels ranged from 0.5 to 3 mm (mean, 1.5 mm). Most vessels were found superior to the mylohyoid muscle in the canine area and beneath the muscle in the mental and second molar areas. The smallest median vertical distance from blood vessel to bone was in the canine area (14.5 mm), followed by the mental foramen area (15.5 mm) and the second premolar area (19 mm). The median horizontal distance of the vessels from the lingual plate was 2 mm at the canine and second molar areas and 4 mm at the mental area. Discussion: Lingual plate perforation, especially anterior to the canine area, can easily injure blood vessels in the floor of the mouth and cause life-threatening hemorrhage following implant placement. Bleeding can occur when the mandibular lingual plate is perforated. Care should be taken to recognize situations where this complication may occur. Conclusions: Based on the study of human cadavers, it appears that vessels in the floor of the mouth are sometimes in close proximity to the site of implant placement.

  • Penetrating Vascular Injuries of the Face and Neck: Clinical and Angiographic Correlation
    855 Penetrating Vascular Injuries of the Face and Neck: Clinical and Angiographic Correlation Charles M. North 1. 2 A retrospective review was made of 139 clinically stable patients who had sustained Jamshid Ahmadi penetrating trauma to the face and neck. The study was done to learn more about the Hervey D. Segall indications for angiography and the impact of angiography upon patient management. Chi-Shing Zee Some relationship between the physical examination and the angiographic findings was found. In the presence of anyone of four physical signs or symptoms (absent pulse, bruit, hematoma, or alteration of neurologic status) there was a 30% incidence of vascular injury. However, it is unlikely that a clinically significant traumatic vascular lesion will be missed if angiography is not obtained when these clinical signs and symptoms are not present. In the group of 78 patients who presented with only a wound penetrating the ' platysma and no other findings or symptoms, just two had vascular injuries on angiograms; one of these lesions was minor and the other did not affect the patient's management. There was a substantially higher rate (50%) of vascular injury in patients with trauma cephalad to the angle of the mandible compared with 11 % of patients who had neck trauma. Gunshot wounds were associated with vascular damage more frequently than were stab wounds. Angiography is often performed in penetrating trauma to the head and neck to evaluate the possibility of vascular injury and to aid in planning appropriate management [1]. Nonetheless, the role of angiography in penetrating head and neck trauma has remained controversial.

Hanai) (With one table, two textfigures and 16 figures in 4 plates) -Received for Publication, November 1, 1978- Key Words : Floor of mouth, Artery, Corrosion cast, Comparative anatomy Summary. The arterial distributions in the region of the floor of the mouth in the rat were studied by means of the acryl plastic injection method. 1. The region and its related tissues were supplied mainly by branches of the sub- lingual artery of the facial, and partly by branches of the tonsillar of the facial and branches of the ascending palatine of the lingual. 2. Branches of the sublingual artery were the submandibular lymph node branch, the muscular branches, the submental branch, the mandibular transversal branches, the mucous branch, the genioglossal branches, the preincisive branch, the retroincisive branch and the alveolar branch. 3. Branches of the tonsillar artery were the mucous branch and the mylohyoid branches. 4. A forward branch and small twigs of the ascending palatine were distributed to the posterior small part of the region. 5. Between the above-mentioned branches and the lingual artery, any marked anastomoses were not observed. Preface structed, and that, therefore, the sufficient observation has been difficult by using It is very important to survey the the common dissection method. arterial distribution in the oral region in This paper was undertaken to reveal the rat since this animal is the most the detailed arterial distribution and commonly used in many kinds of ramification of the distributing arteries medico-dental research.
