Microanatomy of the Temporal Division of the Facial Nerve in the Periorbital Region Applied to Minimally Invasive Keyhole Approaches
Identifying a safe zone for preserving TD branches is crucial for surgical incisions planned in the superolateral region of the orbit. This study provides a clinically applicable and reproducible landmark for planning incisions commonly used during minimally invasive keyhole approaches.
