Abstract:
Objective:To explore the relationship among the supratrochlear and supraorbital neurovascular bundles and the corrugator muscle, in order to provide anatomical basis for eyebrow operations.Methods:From July to October 2019, the upper eyelids and forehead of 10 adult skull specimens (20 sides) were dissected layer by layer in the anatomy laboratory of Weifang Medical College. The line of bilateral inner canthus was taken as the X-axis and the facial midline as the Y-axis to establish the coordinate system. The coordinate parameters of supratrochlear nerve, supratrochlear artery, medial branch of supraorbital nerve, lateral branch of supraorbital nerve and supraorbital artery were measured to obtain the range of its trajectory, and their level and their adjacent relationship with the corrugator muscle were observed.Results:The corrugator muscle started from the upper part of the nasal process of the frontal bone near the medial margin of the orbit and was (4.32±0.98) mm from the midline. The base of the corrugator muscle start was (9.91±1.41) mm wide. The corrugator muscle run obliquely upward, through orbicularis oculi muscle and frontal muscle, and stopped at subcutaneous of the outer 1/3 of eyebrow. The trapezoid area was composed of the line of 15 mm above the inner canthus line, (16.58±1.70) mm and (16.17±1.42) mm from the facial midline as the lower base and the line of 30 mm above the inner canthus line, (13.74±1.54) mm and (14.21±2.42) mm from the facial midline, which was the dangerous area for the supratrochlear neurovascular bundles walking in corrugator muscle. The trapezoid area was composed of the line of 22.5 mm above the inner canthus line, (26.03±1.55) mm and (28.11±2.46) mm from the facial midline as the lower base and the line of 40 mm above the inner canthus line, (31.23±3.19) mm and (38.20±2.94) mm from the facial midline, which was the dangerous area for the supraorbital neurovascular bundles.Conclusions:Familiar with the relationship among the supratrochlear and supraorbital neurovascular bundle and the corrugator muscle can avoid dangerous areas and reduce superficial and deep neurovascular injury during operation.
