Pseudomalignant myositis ossificans involving multiple masticatory muscles: Imaging evaluation

Indian Journal of Radiology and Imaging, 2014
Myositis ossificans is a rare cause of trismus. We present a case of pseudomalignant myositis ossificans involving medial pterygoid, lateral pterygoid, and temporalis muscles. Patient presented with gross limitation in mouth opening. There was no history

Surgical technique of temporal muscle resuspension during cranioplasty for minimizing temporal hollowing: A case series

Frontiers in Surgery, 2022
BackgroundTemporal hollowing is a common but often overlooked complication following cranioplasty. To minimize temporal hollowing caused by temporal muscle contraction, we present the novel technique for temporal muscle resuspension during cranioplasty ...

Acute Effect of the Compression Technique on the Electromyographic Activity of the Masticatory Muscles and Mouth Opening in Subjects with Active Myofascial Trigger Points

Applied Sciences, 2020
Active myofascial trigger points (MTrPs) in masticatory muscles are associated with a reduced range of motion and muscle weakness within the stomatognathic system.

Chronological Volume Changes of the Temporal Muscle Pedicle Used for Encephalo-myo-synangiosis in Combined Revascularization for Moyamoya Disease: A Prospective Observational Study

Neurologia Medico-Chirurgica, 2023
Although postoperative neurological events due to brain compression by the swollen temporal muscle are a rare complication, the chronological volume changes of the temporal muscle pedicle and their clinical impact have not yet been documented.

The Temporal Muscle of the Head Can Cause Artifacts in Optical Imaging Studies with Functional Near-Infrared Spectroscopy

Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2017
Background: Extracranial signals are the main source of noise in functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) as light is penetrating the cortex but also skin and muscles of the head.Aim: Here we performed three experiments to investigate the ...

Orthodromic Transfer of the Temporalis Muscle in Incomplete Facial Nerve Palsy

Archives of Plastic Surgery, 2013
Background Temporalis muscle transfer produces prompt surgical results with a one-stage operation in facial palsy patients. The orthodromic method is surgically simple, and the vector of muscle action is similar to the temporalis muscle action direction.

A change in temporal muscle thickness is correlated with past energy adequacy in bedridden older adults: a prospective cohort study

BMC Geriatrics, 2021
Background Energy inadequacy has a great impact on health outcomes in older adult patients; however, it is difficult to evaluate energy adequacy in these patients, especially in home-care settings.

Myoepithelial carcinoma of the temporal muscle: a rare entity presenting in an unusual location

Medicina Universitaria, 2023
We present the first-ever description of a myoepithelial carcinoma arising in the temporal muscle. A 54-year-old fireman presented with a 3-month history of a lump in the right temporal region.

Modulation of Muscle Synergies in Lower-Limb Muscles Associated With Split-Belt Locomotor Adaptation

Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2022
Humans have great locomotor adaptability to environmental demands, which has been investigated using a split-belt treadmill with belts on both the left and right sides. Thus far, neuromuscular control in split-belt locomotor adaptation has been evaluated

Functional anatomy of the human temporal muscle [PDF]

Surgical and Radiologic Anatomy, 2002
The authors carried out an anatomical and magnetic resonance imaging study on the architecture of the mandibular elevator muscles of 169 cadavers. The aim of the study was to define the organisational architecture of the human masseter, temporal and pterygoid muscles. Layer by layer dissection and anatomical cuts in different spatial planes showed that
