Hamular Bursitis and its possible craniofacial referred symptomatology : two case reports
2006
The diagnosis of craniofacial pain is conditioned by the interdisciplinary management of its presentation especially in the absence of unique and objective signs. Bursitis is a pathological entity recently found in the hamular area and should be included in the diagnosis for exclusion of temporomandibular disorders (TMD), ear-nose-throat pathologies, due to the similar symptomatology to other head and neck conditions. The hamular process bursitis is a painful condition that can easily be confused with glosopharinge or trigeminal neuralgia that generates an uncomfortable feeling in the oropharinge with ipsilateral referred ? heteretopic - symptomatology to the head. This pathology, in chroni…
The digastric muscle?s anterior accessory belly : case report
2007
Digastric muscle is characterized by presenting occasional variations. The suprahyoid region of an 83 year-old male cadaver was dissected and an anatomic variation of the digastric muscle was observed in its anterior belly. It consisted of an accessory bilateral anterior belly originating in the intermediate tendon and inserted into the mylohyoid raphe. The implications of this variation are discussed from a diagnostic and functional perspective.
Tensor tympani muscle: strange chewing muscle
2007
This work seeks to alert medical and odontological staff to understanding and using interdisciplinary handling for detecting different pathologies’ common otic symptoms. It offers better tools for this shared symptomatology during therapy’s conservative phase. Tensor tympani muscle physiology and function in the middle ear have been veiled, even when their dysfunction and anatomical relationships may explain a group of confused otic symptoms during conventional clinical evaluation. Middle ear muscles share a common embryological and functional origin with chewing and facial muscles. This article emphasizes that these muscles share a functional neurological and anatomical dimension with the …
Bursitis Hamular y su posible sintomatología craneofacial referida: reporte de dos casos
2006
El diagnostico del dolor craneofacial esta condicionado al manejo interdisciplinario por lo confuso de su presentación especialmente en la ausencia de signos únicos y objetivos. La bursitis es una entidad patológica recientemente notificada en la zona hamular y que debe ser vinculada al diagnostico por exclusión en desordenes temporomandibulares (DTM) y patologías de oído, nariz y garganta, debido a la sintomatología similar a la de otras condiciones que afectan la región de cabeza y cuello. La bursitis del proceso hamular es un patología dolorosa que puede fácilmente ser confundida con neuralgia del glosofaríngeo o del trigémino que genera gran incomodidad en la orofaringe con sintomatolog…
