چکیده
Anatomical knowledge of variations in the branching pattern of the external carotid artery will be helpful in surgical procedures of the head and neck region and also in angiographic studies. Material And Methods: Present study was conducted in the neck region of 25 embalmed human cadavers to find out the variations in the branching pattern of the external carotid artery. Results: Common origin of linguo facial trunk variations was found in 2 cases unilaterally out of 50 cases. Conclusion: Present study concluded the incidence of common linguo facial trunk was 4%.

متن کاملA hitherto unreported disruption of cervical branches of facial artery
The facial artery (FA) normally arises from the external carotid artery (ECA), just above the lingual artery, at the level of greater horn of hyoid bone in the carotid triangle. It then passes obliquely upwards beneath the posterior belly of digastric and stylohyoid muscles sheltered by the ramus of the mandible lying medial to the bone. Here it passes deep to the superficial part of the subman...
