To examine both the distances from the orbital rim to the myoneural junctions (MNJs) and the widths of the MNJs of all extraocular muscles.
Six orbits of 3 post-mortem cadavers were used. The cadavers (1 female and 2 males) were all Japanese with an average age of 76.3 years. The MNJs of the extraocular muscles and their motor nerves were exposed, and then the distance from the orbital rim to each MNJ and the width of each MNJ were examined.
The distance from the orbital rim to each MNJ in the 6 extraocular muscles ranged from 24.4 to 33.6 mm and the width of each MNJ ranged from 5.0 to 8.5 mm.
It is essential for orbital surgeons to understand both the distance from the orbital rim to MNJs and the widths of MNJs. This information not only aids the understanding of MNJ damage, but also prevents iatrogenic nerve impairment during orbital surgery.
研究从眶缘到所有眼外肌肌神经接头(MNJ)的距离以及MNJ的宽度。
使用3具尸体的6个眼眶。这些尸体(1名女性和2名男性)均为日本人,平均年龄76.3岁。暴露眼外肌及其运动神经的MNJ,然后检查从眶缘到每个MNJ的距离以及每个MNJ的宽度。
6条眼外肌中从眶缘到每个MNJ的距离在24.4至33.6毫米之间,每个MNJ的宽度在5.0至8.5毫米之间。
眼眶外科医生必须了解从眶缘到MNJ的距离以及MNJ的宽度。这些信息不仅有助于理解MNJ损伤,还能防止眼眶手术期间的医源性神经损伤。
