An anatomicosurgical study of the temporal branch of the facial nerve.

Neurosurgery - 1 Dec 1993

Ammirati M, Spallone A, Ma J, Cheatham M, Becker D

Abstract excerpt

The surgical anatomy of the temporal branch of the facial nerve was studied bilaterally in 10 embalmed cadaveric heads. Particular attention was paid to the relationships between the temporal branch, the galeal-fascial layers, and the fat pads of the temporal-zygomatic region. The temporal branch of the facial nerve pierces the parotidomasseteric fascia below the zygomatic arch. This branch travels first in the...
