Muscle Fatigue in the Temporal and Masseter Muscles in Patients with Temporomandibular Dysfunction [PDF]

open access: yesBioMed Research International, 2015
The aim of this study is to evaluate muscle fatigue in the temporal and masseter muscles in patients with temporomandibular dysfunction (TMD). Two hundred volunteers aged 19.3 to 27.8 years (mean 21.50, SD 0.97) participated in this study. Electromyographical (EMG) recordings were performed using a DAB-Bluetooth Instrument (Zebris Medical GmbH, Germany)

Bloody fluids located between the temporal muscle and targeted cerebral cortex affect the establishment of indirect collaterals in Moyamoya disease with surgical bypass: A case-control study

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2022
ObjectiveBypass yields favorable outcomes in the treatment of Moyamoya disease (MMD). Bloody fluids accumulate between the targeted cortex and the temporal muscle after surgical bypass.

Pseudomalignant myositis ossificans involving multiple masticatory muscles: Imaging evaluation

open access: yesIndian 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

open access: yesFrontiers 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

open access: yesApplied 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.

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

open access: yesFrontiers 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

open access: yesArchives 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.
