ABSTRACT

SUMMARY:

This study aimed to determine the anatomical connections between the inferior fibers of M. orbicularis oculi (OOc inf.) and the M. levator labii superioris alaeque nasi (LLSAN), providing anatomical variations of the connecting fibers. This study examined the OOc and LLSAN of 44 specimens from 22 embalmed adult Korean cadavers. Connecting fibers between the OOc inf. and LLSAN were observed in 29.5 % of the specimens. Connecting patterns of the OOc inf. to the LLSAN were classified into three categories according to the directions of the connecting fibers; Type I (13.6 %), in which some of the OOc inf. coursed medially to blend with the lateral originating fibers of the LLSAN. Type II (11.4 %), in which some of the OOc inf. descended vertically to blend with the LLSAN. Type III (4.5 %), in which both types I and II were found simultaneously. Some of the OOc inf. coursed medially to blend with the lateral originating fibers of the LLSAN, and some of the OOc inf. descended vertically to blend with the LLSAN. These findings provide greater knowledge of the connecting fibers between the OOc inf. and LLSAN, thereby helping us understand complicated expressions, inject BoNT-A into related wrinkles, and analyze EMG activities.
RESUMEN
RESUMEN Este estudio tuvo como objetivo determinar las conexiones anatómicas entre las fibras inferiores del músculo orbicular del ojo (MOO inf.) y el levantador nasolabial (Musculus levator nasiolabialis; M. levator labii superioris alaeque nasi) (LNL), proporcionando variaciones anatómicas de las fibras conectoras. Se examinó el orbicularis oculi (MOO) y LNL de 44 especímenes de 22 cadáveres coreanos adultos embalsamados. Se observaron fibras conectoras entre los MOO inf. y LNL en el 29,5 % de los especímenes. Patrones de conexión del OOc inf. a LNL se clasificaron en tres categorías según las direcciones de las fibras conectoras; Tipo I (13,6 %), en el que algunos de los MOO inf. cursaban medialmente para mezclarse con las fibras de origen lateral del LNL. Tipo II (11,4 %), en el que algunos de los MOO inf. descendían verticalmente para mezclarse con el LNL. Tipo III (4,5 %), en el que se encontraron simultáneamente los tipos I y II. Algunos de los MOO inf. cursaron medialmente para mezclarse con las fibras de origen lateral de la LNL y algunas de las MOO inf. descendían verticalmente para mezclarse con el LNL. Estos hallazgos aportan un mayor conocimiento de las fibras conectoras entre los MOO inf. y LNL, lo que nos ayuda a comprender expresiones complicadas, inyectar BoNT-A en las arrugas relacionadas y analizar las actividades de EMG.
