The Temporalis Muscle Flap for Intraoral Reconstruction

Archives of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 1987
In this series of seven patients, we used the temporalis muscle flap for reconstruction of tongue and floor-of-mouth defects. For intraoral reconstruction, the temporalis muscle flap has advantages over the standard workhorse flap, the pectoralis major.

Case report: myxoma of the temporalis muscle

Oral Surgery, Oral Medicine, Oral Pathology, Oral Radiology, and Endodontology, 2004
Intramuscular myxomas of the head and neck are rare entities. Primarily found in the myocardium, these lesions also affect the bones and soft tissues. We present a case of an intramuscular myxoma of the temporalis muscle. After reviewing the literature, this case constitutes, to our knowledge, the second reported occurrence of a myxoma in this specific

Pseudomalignant osseous tumor of the temporalis muscle

Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, 1985
A case is presented of a 10-year-old girl who had a benign osseous tumor of the temporalis muscle. The tumor appeared to be a variant of the so-called pseudomalignant osseous tumor of the soft tissues and could readily be distinguished from both osteogenic sarcoma and myositis ossificans.

Hemangioma of the Temporalis Muscle

Annals of Plastic Surgery, 1979
Hemangiomas are the most common benign tumors of infancy and childhood. Most involve skin and subcutaneous tissues and are readily visible. Intramuscular hemangiomas are very uncommon, and rarely appear in the musculature of the head and neck. A 59-year-old woman who had had a lipoma excised from her left temporal region many years earlier underwent ...

Intramuscular Benign Lipoma of the Temporalis Muscle

Scandinavian Journal of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery and Hand Surgery, 2002
An intramuscular lipoma within the musculature of the head and neck is unusual. Most of them are infiltrating lipomas, and we know of no description of a well-circumscribed lipoma of the temporalis muscle. We present a 64-year-old woman who had a non-pulsatile, soft, mobile mass in the right temporal fossa.

Electromyographic Heterogeneity in the Human Temporalis Muscle

Journal of Dental Research, 1990
This study examined the possible existence of regional differences in activation of the temporalis muscle. Since the muscle is fan-shaped, its fibers pull in different directions. This suggests regional specialization for different motor tasks. EMG activity was registered by six bipolar fine-wire electrodes inserted anteroposteriorly across the muscle ...

THE TEMPORALIS MUSCLE FLAP IN INTRAORAL RECONSTRUCTION

Australian and New Zealand Journal of Surgery, 1997
Background:Reconstruction following excision of intraoral tumours presents a challenge to the head and neck surgeon. The purpose of the present study was to review the authors' initial experience with the temporalis muscle flap. Methods: A retrospective review of the use of 21 temporalis muscle flaps in intraoral reconstruction at Christchurch ...

Fatigue in the Masseter and Temporalis Muscles at Constant Load

CRANIO®, 2007
Fatigue is usually defined as the point at which a particular level of force can be no longer maintained. In the present study, surface EMG of the masseter and temporalis anterior muscles was measured in ten healthy young adults performing a unilateral molar (right side) clench. The subjects clenched on a bite force transducer at a fixed force level of

Modified Temporalis Muscle Flap for Eyelid Reanimation

Journal of Craniofacial Surgery, 2018
Abstract The reanimation of both upper and lower paralytic eyelids requires dynamic procedures for longevity of correction. Temporalis muscle ensures the criteria for reanimation and is used widely as a result. Many modifications were described to improve the success of the classical technique.
