Abstract:

BACKGROUND

The classic idea of the blood supply to the masticatory muscle is based on the topography of the masticatory branch (a. masseterica), known in anatomical terminology as arteria masseterica. Modern studies of the second half of the 20th and beginning of the 21st centuries only emphasize the isolation of deep portions of the masticatory muscle. According to the literature, it is not obvious whether the above segmentation of the masticatory muscle is a separation of parts through the fascial covering, just as there is no evidence that each part receives an independent blood supply. The purpose of this review is to systematize information about the blood supply to the masseter muscle and to offer terminological options for solving missing names.

MATERIALS AND METHODS

We conducted a literature search Methodology for selecting works for review, the original version was taken from Prisma: identification ->screening->included.

CONCLUSION

It is now important to systematize the available information and propose a variable range for the terminology of the arterial blood supply to the masseter muscle. In terms borrowed from TA2, the original number is preserved.

Keywords:
