چکیده
Facial Nerve.The trunk of the facial nerve emerges from the stylomastoid foramen and lies deeply beneath the surface in the angle between the bony external auditory meatus and the mastoid process. It passes forwards around the neck of the condyle of the mandible and rapidly becomes superficial. As it does so, it divides; first into an upper temporofacial division and a lower cervicofacial division and then subsequently into a varying number of branches, some of which may be interconnected (Pes Anserinus = Like the foot of a goose.).
