An Algorithm to Guide Recipient Vessel Selection in Cases of Free Functional Muscle Transfer for Facial Reanimation

Archives of Plastic Surgery, 2014
Background The aim of this study was to review the recipient vessels used in our cases of facial reanimation with free functional muscle transfer and to identify patient variables that may predict when the facial vessels are absent. From this we present

Stab injury to the preauricular region with laceration of the external carotid artery without involvement of the facial nerve: a case report

Journal of Medical Case Reports, 2017
Background Open injuries to the face involving the external carotid artery are uncommon. These injuries are normally associated with laceration of the facial nerve because this nerve is more superficial than the external carotid artery.

The stylomastoid artery as an anatomical landmark to the facial nerve during parotid surgery: a clinico-anatomic study

World Journal of Surgical Oncology, 2009
Background The identification of the facial nerve can be difficult in a bloody operative field or by an incision that limits exposure; hence anatomical landmarks and adequate operative exposure can aid such identification and preservation.
