Pseudomalignant myositis ossificans involving multiple masticatory muscles: Imaging evaluation
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

Functional anatomy of the human temporal muscle [PDF]
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

Myocardial Architecture and Patient Variability in Clinical Patterns of Atrial Fibrillation [PDF]
Atrial fibrillation (AF) increases the risk of stroke by a factor of four to five and is the most common abnormal heart rhythm. The progression of AF with age, from short self-terminating episodes to persistence, varies between individuals and is poorly ...

Deciphering the functional role of spatial and temporal muscle synergies in whole-body movements [PDF]
International audienceVoluntary movement is hypothesized to rely on a limited number of muscle synergies, the recruitment of which translates task goals into effective muscle activity.

ATP-sensitive muscle afferents activate spinal trigeminal neurons with meningeal afferent input in rat:pathophysiological implications for tension-type headache [PDF]
Background: Tension-type headache and other primary headaches may be triggered or aggravated by disorders of pericranial muscles, which is possibly due to convergent or collateral afferent input from meningeal and muscular receptive areas.

Orthodromic Transfer of the Temporalis Muscle in Incomplete Facial Nerve Palsy
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.

Sphenomandibular Muscle or Deep Bundle of Temporal Muscle? [PDF]
El musculo denominado como esfenomandibular por un grupo de autores o de acuerdo con estudios recientes, de fasciculo profundo del musculo temporal, presenta importantes relaciones anatomicas, especialmente en un contexto medico-odontologico. En vista de esta discusion, el objetivo fue observar la morfologia mediante la diseccion de cabezas conservadas

Effect of delayed acquisition times on Gadolinium-enhanced MRI of the presumably normal canine brain [PDF]
A delay in imaging following intravenous contrast medium administration has been recommended to reduce misdiagnoses. However, the normal variation of contrast enhancement in dogs following a delay has not been characterized.
