temporal fascia การใช้
- In humans, it arises from the temporal fossa and the deep part of temporal fascia.
- The temporal muscle is covered by the temporal fascia, also known as the temporal aponeurosis.
- The upper border of the arch gives attachment to the temporal fascia; the lower border and medial surface give origin to the Masseter.
- It occasionally gives off a zygomatico-orbital branch, which runs along the upper border of the zygomatic arch, between the two layers of the temporal fascia, to the lateral angle of the orbit.
- On either side it gives origin to the anterior and the superior auricular muscles; in this situation it loses its aponeurotic character, and is continued over the temporal fascia to the zygomatic arch as a layer of laminated areolar tissue.
- Crossing the middle of the bone in an arched direction are two curved lines, the superior and inferior temporal lines; the former gives attachment to the temporal fascia, and the latter indicates the upper limit of the muscular origin of the temporalis.
- The " postero-superior " or " temporal " border, curved like an italic letter " f, " is continuous above with the commencement of the temporal line, and below with the upper border of the zygomatic arch; the temporal fascia is attached to it.
- It ascends between the bone and the substance of the temporalis muscle, pierces the temporal fascia about 2.5 cm . above the zygomatic arch, and is distributed to the skin of the side of the forehead, and communicates with the facial nerve and with the auriculotemporal branch of the mandibular nerve.
- The fascia itself is made of two layers : A superficial layer ( lat . " Lamina superficalis " ) that passes cranial into the temporal fascia and lateral into the masseteric fascia, and a deeper layer ( lat . " Lamina profunda " ) that covers the Stylohyoid muscle, the styloglossus and the Musculus stylopharyngeus.
