True aneurysm of the facial artery

The Journal of Laryngology & Otology, 2007
AbstractWe present a case of true facial artery aneurysm with no associated risk factors, which was non-pulsatile on presentation. This case is unique as the lesion was identified using computed tomography scanning, due to the unusual presentation. The vast majority of aneurysms of the head and neck have a traumatic aetiology, giving rise to false ...

Facial Artery Myomucosal Flap, Pedicled Solely on the Facial Artery

Journal of Craniofacial Surgery, 2016
Facial artery myomucosal flap pedicled solely on skeletonized facial artery has been reported in the literature. Venous drainage of this modified flap is doubtful so an animal study was designed to verify the survival of this flap.Three healthy adult male mongrel dogs with weight between 20 to 30 kg were enrolled in this study.

Vascularization of the Facial Bones by the Facial Artery

Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, 2014
The maxillary artery is recognized as the main vascular supply of the facial bones; nonetheless, clinical evidence supports a codominant role for the facial artery. This study explores the extent of the facial skeleton within a facial allograft that can be harvested based on the facial artery.Twenty-three cadaver heads were used in this study.

Facial Artery Flaps in Facial Oncoplastic Reconstruction

Facial Plastic Surgery, 2013
The face is one of the common sites for cutaneous cancer localization. It is well known that the face is the localization of more than 50% of skin cancers. Nowadays, the principles of modern "oncoplasty" recommend the complete excision of the cancer and the reconstruction with respect to cosmetic features of the face in terms of good color, good ...

Mucosal Perforators From the Facial Artery

British Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, 2014
The cutaneous perforators of the facial artery have been well described, but to our knowledge the oral mucosal perforators have not. We studied 10 facial arteries from 10 hemifaces in 5 cadavers. The arteries were injected with latex, and we studied all perforators that extended from the facial artery and headed directly to the oral mucosa.

An Anatomical Study of the Facial Artery

Annals of Plastic Surgery, 1988
The anatomical variations encountered in the dissection of 50 facial arteries in 25 adult preserved cadavers are presented. The facial artery was symmetrical in 17 of 25 (68%) of the dissections. The facial artery terminated as an angular facial artery in 34 (68%), a lateral nasal vessel in 13 (26%), and a superior labial vessel in 2 (4%); in 1 (2 ...

The Course and Variation of the Facial Artery and Vein

Annals of Plastic Surgery, 2011
The main arterial supply of the facial skin envelope is the facial artery which serves as the main pedicle for a number of facial flaps, including a facial transplant graft. This study explored the course of the facial artery and vein, branching patterns, terminations, and anomalous variants.

Facial artery haemangioma diagnosed by facial pain

International Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, 2013
Background and objectives: Necrotizing fasciitis of the neck is a rare, progressive and lifethreatening bacterial infection, usually polymicrobial, which spreads with frightening speed along the fascial planes and subcutaneous tissue, resulting in extensive tissue necrosis and often death.
