The anatomical variations encountered in the dissection of 50 facial arteries in 25 adult preserved cadavers are presented. The facial artery was symmetrical in 17 of 25 (68%) of the dissections. The facial artery terminated as an angular facial artery in 34 (68%), a lateral nasal vessel in 13 (26%), and a superior labial vessel in 2 (4%); in 1 (2%) the facial artery terminated at the alar base. A longer course was identified in 5 (10%) facial arteries. The use of nasolabial flap (skin, full-thickness, and oral mucosa) raised as an island flap based on the facial artery or one its branches is discussed.
本文介绍了对25具成年防腐尸体的50条面动脉进行解剖时所遇到的解剖变异情况。在25例解剖中，有17例（68%）面动脉是对称的。面动脉以角动脉终末的有34例（68%），以鼻外侧血管终末的有13例（26%），以上唇血管终末的有2例（4%）；有1例（2%）面动脉在鼻翼基部终末。发现5条（10%）面动脉走行较长。文中还讨论了以面动脉或其分支之一为蒂掀起的鼻唇瓣（皮肤、全层及口腔黏膜）作为岛状瓣的应用。
