Objectives: We provide a detailed exploration of the ultrasound anatomy of the facial artery, which is essential for safe injection procedures. We will explain the arterial path from the neck (common carotid artery) to the face (external and internal carotid artery) and show the dynamic relationship between the facial artery and surrounding structures of the ophthalic artery using ultrasound images.
Introduction: The facial artery is a vital component of the circulatory system, responsible for delivering blood to the face and its adjacent structures. This article delves into the detailed sono-anatomy of the facial artery, tracing its path from the neck to the face while specifically highlighting the temple region concerning injectable procedures. The facial artery's journey begins within the carotid triangle, where it originates from the external carotid artery, slightly above the lingual artery. Its course is marked by complex interactions with various surrounding structures.
Materials / method: The presentation discusses the facial artery's origin and journey, beginning from its emergence within the carotid triangle and proceeding through the neck, mandible, and face. It elaborates on the artery's dynamic relationship with muscles, fascia, nerves, and integument at various anatomical points. Additionally, the presentation emphasizes the potential significance of this knowledge in injectable procedures, where inadvertent damage to the facial artery can have severe consequences.
Results: The facial artery, a vital component of the circulatory system, plays a crucial role in supplying blood to the face and surrounding structures. Understanding its intricate anatomical course is essential for various medical and surgical procedures. In this presentation, I delve into the detailed sono-anatomy of the facial artery, elucidating its path from the neck to the face, while also exploring temple region for injectables.
Conclusion: The sono-anatomy of the facial artery is a crucial knowledge area for medical professionals engaged in facial injectable procedures. By comprehending the facial artery's intricate path and its ever-changing relationships with adjacent structures, practitioners can enhance patient safety and minimize the risk of adverse events during injectable treatments. This knowledge serves as a foundation for precise and safe practices
