The temporal area may be tender. [21] Decreased pulses may be found throughout the body [21] Evidence of ischemia may be noted on fundal exam. [21] Bruits may be heard over the subclavian and axillary arteries [21] Intermediate magnification micrograph showing giant cell arteritis in a temporal artery biopsy. The arterial lumen is seen on the left.
Segmental Arterial Mediolysis must be differentiated from fibromuscular dysplasia, atherosclerosis, and other systemic vasculidites including polyarteritis nodosa, Takayasu's arteritis, Behcet's disease, cystic medial necrosis, and cystic adventitial artery disease.
Pediatric intensive care has been established as a sub-specialty of medicine over the past two decades. It grew out of a need for increasingly complex pediatric care, long-term management of disease, and advancements in medical and surgical sub-specialties, as well as, life-sustaining therapies. [9]
The auriculotemporal nerve is a sensory branch of the mandibular nerve (CN V 3) that runs with the superficial temporal artery and vein, and provides sensory innervation to parts of the external ear, scalp, and temporomandibular joint. The nerve also conveys post-ganglionic parasympathetic fibres from the otic ganglion to the parotid gland. [1]
The parietal branch of the superficial temporal artery (posterior temporal) is a small artery in the head.It is larger than the frontal branch and curves upward and backward on the side of the head, lying superficial to the temporal fascia; it joins with its fellow of the opposite side, and with the posterior auricular and occipital arteries.
Temporal artery may refer to: Deep temporal arteries, two in number, anterior and posterior, ascend between the temporalis and the pericranium; Middle temporal artery, arises immediately above the zygomatic arch; Superficial temporal artery, a major artery of the head
No evidence-based clinical practice guidelines for arterial tortuosity syndrome (ATS) have been published. [7] The treatment of arterial tortuosity syndrome entails possible surgery for aortic aneurysms, as well as regular clinical surveillance including regular follow-up echocardiograms. [7] The prognosis and lifespan of this condition are ...
Damage to the inferior left temporal lobe, which is shown in green, is associated with TSA. Transcortical sensory aphasia is caused by lesions in the inferior left temporal lobe of the brain located near Wernicke's area, and is usually due to minor hemorrhage or contusion in the temporal lobe, or infarcts of the left posterior cerebral artery (PCA).
