Evaluation of temporomandibular disorders before and after orthognathic surgery: therapeutic considerations on a sample of 76 patients [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Temporomandibular disorders may be associated with dental and facial malformations. The aim of this study is to record the prevalence of TMDs in patients scheduled for orthognathic surgery, reporting the development of TMDs and symptoms during the entire

Relation of Mental Nerve With Mandibular Branch of the Facial Nerve

open access: yesJournal of Craniofacial Surgery, 2007
The aim of this study is to elucidate the detailed anatomical relation of mental nerve with marginal mandibular branch of the facial nerve. Twenty-three hemi-faces of adult Korean cadavers (11 Male and 7 female) were dissected. All locations of crossing (C) of marginal mandibular branch of the facial nerve and mental nerve were measured below the ...

The petrotympanic canal (Huguier canal): Evolutionary, anatomical, and medical perspectives

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The petrotympanic canal, traditionally referred to as Civinini's or Huguier's canal, represents an anatomical passage connecting the middle ear and temporomandibular joint (TMJ). Despite its early description, its structural complexity and functional significance have often been underestimated. In this study, we combined historical, anatomical,

Early evolution of the gular musculature and its innervation in ray‐finned fishes

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Gular muscles are an important but often overlooked component of cranial anatomy in bony fishes. They are located on the ventral surface of the head and are derived from the mandibular and hyoid arches. We present a comprehensive review of the gular musculature and its innervation across early diverging actinopterygian lineages. By integrating

Ecology and evolution of pyrazines in insects

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Chemical communication is the oldest and most widespread form of signalling among and within organisms. Among the many compounds involved in such communication, pyrazines – nitrogen‐containing heterocyclic molecules – are especially intriguing due to their widespread occurrence across the tree of life, from bacteria and fungi to insects and ...

An unusual communication between the mylohyoid and lingual nerves in man: Its significance in lingual nerve injury

open access: yesIndian Journal of Dental Research, 2010
The mylohyoid nerve is the branch of the inferior alveolar nerve (IAN) which arises above the mandibular foramen. An abnormal communication between the mylohyoid nerve and lingual nerve (LN) was noted during the routine dissection of a male cadaver ...

Preserving the marginal mandibular branch of the facial nerve during submandibular region surgery: a cadaveric safety study

open access: yesPatient Safety in Surgery, 2018
Background The marginal mandibular branch of the facial nerve is vulnerable to iatrogenic injuries during surgeries involving the submandibular region. This leads to significant post-operative morbidity. Studies assessing accurate anatomical landmarks of
