ABSTRACT

SUMMARY:

Accessory meningeal artery is a branch of the first part of the maxillary artery. It supplies the structures in the infratemporal fossa and the dura mater in the middle cranial fossa. Accessory meningeal artery arose from the middle meningeal artery, 25 mm below the base of the skull and entered the middle cranial fossa through the foramen ovale. The two roots of the auriculotemporal nerve looped around it. The knowledge of the variant origin and relations may be useful during the surgeries of the infratemporal fossa. It might also be useful to the radiologists.
RESUMEN
RESUMEN La arteria meníngea media es una rama accesoria que emerge al inicio de la arteria maxilar. Suministra la vascularización a nivel de la fosa infratemporal y la duramadre en la fosa craneal media. En este trabajo, surgió una arteria meníngea accesoria de la arteria meníngea media, a una 25 mm por debajo de la base del cráneo, accediendo en la fosa craneal media a través del foramen oval. Las dos raíces del nervio auriculotemporal la rodeaban. El conocimiento de esta variación y sus relaciones pueden ser útiles durante las cirugías de la fosa infratemporal, como así también puede ser útil para los radiólogos.
