Communication between Mylohyoid and Lingual Nerve: An Anatomical Variation.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Variation in the branching pattern of mandibular division of trigeminal nerve has remain one of the commonest cause among the surgeons for not obtaining adequate local anesthesia in routine oral or dental procedure. In this article, we discuss about a case of an unusual communication between mylohyoid and lingual nerve in a 50-year-old female cadaver seen in a routine dissection in medical college. The details of this anatomical variation and its clinical aspects are discussed.

Communication Between the Mylohyoid and Lingual Nerves: Clinical Implications
The mylohyoid muscle plays an important role in chewing, swallowing, respiration and phonation, being the mylohyoid nerve also closely related to these important functions. It has been postulated that the mylohyoid nerve might have a role in the sensory innervation of the chin and the lower incisor teeth while the role of the mylohyoid nerve in the mandibular posterior tooth sensation is still ...
متن کاملUnusual communication between the lingual nerve and mylohyoid nerves in a South Indian male cadaver: its clinical significance.
It is well known that variations in the branching pattern of the mandibular nerve frequently account for the failure to obtain adequate local anesthesia in routine oral and dental procedures, and also for the unexpected injury to branches of the nerves during surgery. During our routine dissection, we found the presence of a communicating branch between the mylohyoid and lingual nerves in a mid...
متن کاملThe anatomy of bifid mandibular foramina: a comprehensive review
Introduction Understanding the anatomy of pterygomandibular fossa is crucial for dentists since it is one of the target spaces for inferior alveolar nerve blocks prior to dental treatment. Failure of achieving adequate anesthesia was reported in 20% of inferior alveolar blocks [1]. The sphenomandibular ligament and the interpterygoid fascia are integral structures that define this area [2]. The...
متن کاملAn unnamed branch of the lingual nerve: gingival branch.
Our main aim was to study the mylohyoid nerve, but during cadaveric dissections an unnamed branch of the lingual nerve was encountered incidentally. Dissections of sublingual and pterygomandibular spaces on 13 cadavers preserved in formalin showed an unnamed branch present bilaterally in 11 specimens, which had not been identified before in any of the anatomical textbooks. The branch extended h...
متن کاملDissection and Detailed Anatomy of an Impacted Mandibular Third Molar
Neurosensory disturbances of the inferior alveolar nerve (IAN), or the lingual nerve (LN), are commonly reported in cases of third mandibular molar impaction. Cases are usually documented by use of imagistic methods. Dissection proofs of the detailed anatomy in such cases are rare, if not absent. It is reported here a dissection study in a case of an impacted (buccoangular) third mandibular mol...
