    It passes anteriorly [citation needed] to exit the orbit between the trochlea (superiorly [citation needed]), the medial palpebral ligament (inferiorly [citation needed]). [1] It gives a branch to the lacrimal sac before bifurcating into two branches: one branch anastomoses with the terminal (angular) part of the facial artery [1] and is important for the blood supply of the face; [citation ...

    The ophthalmic artery (OA) is an artery of the head.It is the first branch of the internal carotid artery distal to the cavernous sinus.Branches of the ophthalmic artery supply all the structures in the orbit around the eye, as well as some structures in the nose, face, and meninges.

    It supplies the ala and dorsum of the nose, anastomosing with its fellow, with the septal and alar branches, with the dorsal nasal branch of the ophthalmic artery, and with the infraorbital branch of the internal maxillary. If the posterior lateral nasal artery is superficial in the nasal wall, a laceration may occur during an aggressive curettage.

    In severe nose bleed cases which do not stop after intense packing of anti-clotting agents, the sphenopalatine artery can be ligated (clipped and then cut) during open surgery or embolized (blocked with surgical glue or tiny microparticles). [4]

  7. Kiesselbach's plexus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kiesselbach's_plexus

    Kiesselbach's plexus is an anastomotic arterial network (plexus) of four or five arteries in the nose supplying the nasal septum. It lies in the anterior inferior part of the septum known as Little's area, Kiesselbach's area, or Kiesselbach's triangle. It is a common site for anterior nosebleeds.

    The sphenopalatine artery passes through the sphenopalatine foramen into the cavity of the nose, at the back part of the superior meatus.Here it gives off its posterior lateral nasal branches which spread forward over the conchæ and meatuses, anastomose with the ethmoidal arteries and the nasal branches of the descending palatine, and assist in supplying the frontal, maxillary, ethmoidal, and ...

  9. Facial artery - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Facial_artery

    The facial artery arises in the carotid triangle from the external carotid artery, [1] [2] a little above the lingual artery, and sheltered by the ramus of the mandible.It passes obliquely up beneath the digastric and stylohyoid muscles, over which it arches to enter a groove on the posterior surface of the submandibular gland.
