Anatomy of the Genian Region Explained

The document provides a detailed anatomical description of the genian region, including its boundaries, external form, and structural layers. It discusses the skin, subcutaneous tissue, muscular layers, and the vascular and nervous supply of the area. Additionally, it outlines the zygomatic region's anatomy and its associated blood vessels and nerves.

Genian Region

The genian region of the Latin name


cheek, occupies the
side parts of the face
Limits
Upward the lower edge of the orbit, which separates
of the eyelid region

Downwards the lower border of the mandible, that the


separate from the suprahyoid region

Outward the anterior edge of the masseter muscle


extended to the external orbital process

Inside going from top to bottom, the nasogenian groove.

It extends in depth to the upper jaw and the lower jaw and in
the interval between the two jaws, up to the oral mucosa
External form and exploration

It has the shape of an elongated quadrilateral.


Its appearance varies according to age and subjects.

In the child and in the adult with a certain degree of fatness, it is


regularly bulging, in thin subjects it
it is depressed and excavated in its middle part

On its part, the middle of the cheek forms the


external wall of the oral cavity, making it easier
to explore it.

Skin

The skin of the cheek is thin, very movable and


very vascular.

It is very rich in sweat glands and


sebaceous.

It is made up of, from above

Vessels and nerves
The vessels and nerves of the region
most of the geniana wander through the
subcutaneous cell tissue and in the thickness
from the superficial muscle layer.

The facial artery has

Veins
The veins of the buccal region
form under the skin
a rich network, whose branches end up
to three main trunks:

Inside, to the vein


On the outside, to the temporal vein
superficial, one of the branches of
origin of the external jugular.
Deeply, to the plexus
pterygoid.
Lymphatic The lymphatic ones also form rich
networks beneath the coverings.

Except for those of the cheekbone, which go to the


parotid lymph nodes, all the lymphatics of the
genian region descend, in company of the
facial artery and vein, towards the lymph nodes
submandibulars.
Nerves
Destined for the muscles
RAMOS MOTORS They emanate from the temporofacial branches and

cervicofacial of the facial nerve

Intended for the integuments


they come from the branch of the ophthalmic,

Blood vessels
The blood vessels of the zygomatic fossa are represented by the
internal maxillary artery and the veins

Internal maxillary artery


Terminal branch of the external carotid
It extends from the parotid region.
VEINS
They give rise to the alveolar plexus: it drains into the facial vein.
Pterygoid plexus: occupies the space between the spine of the sphenoid and the base
of the pterygoid.
Internal maxillary vein: It joins with the temporal vein to form the vein
external jugular.
VEINS
Inferior maxillary nerve: mixed nerve, consists of 2 roots, sensory and motor.
His facial neuralgias are accompanied by contractions of the muscles of the
face.

The extracranial segment is short, it


subdivide below the oval hole in
a bouquet of terminal branches.
External branches
The inferior maxillary nerve provides 7 branches

1. Middle deep temporal nerve


[Link] nerve
3. Buccal nerve
4. Nerve of the internal pterygoid
5. Auriculotemporal nerve
6. Lingual nerve
