 PAGE \* MERGEFORMAT 11 Marginal mandibular branch of the facial nerve to go line-level and sub-localization Of: Jiangji Liang, Wu Bin, Liu Dongqiang, Cao Yan Kwan [Abstract] Objective marginal mandibular branch of the facial nerve to go line-level and sub-location, face side of the area to prevent the Department of Maxillofacial Surgery in men caused by marginal mandibular branch of facial nerve injury provide anatomical basis. Methods According to the set of coordinates, observing 28 adult body (ie, marginal mandibular branch of facial nerve 56, the walk level and location of the line. The results of the facial nerve marginal mandibular branch of the main walk through the parotid fascia and biting, the length can be divided into descending segment, the bow section and paragraph 3 liters, and the mandibular vein and facial artery at the intersection of the coordinates are (-6.4 +-1.5mm, and (9.8 +-1.3mm, (28.8 +-4.1mm, and (11.6 +-1.6mm. Conclusion section more accurate method of positioning shows the marginal mandibular branch of facial nerve position to meet the needs of maxillofacial surgery. [Keywords:] facial nerve marginal mandibular branch, coordinate system, sub-location, and Maxillofacial Surgery Abstract: Objective To provide the anatomical basis for preventing the marginal mandibular branch of facial nerve being injured in lower maxillofacial region surgery. Methods The distribution in different strata and location of the marginal mandibular branch of facial nerve was observed and measured on 28 adults (56 sides) cadaver with reference to the stated frame of axes. Results The marginal mandibular branch of the facial nerve mainly travelled through the parotid and the masseteric fascia.The branch could be segmented into three sections: descendent segment, arcuate segment and ascending segment. The location of the branch across the retromandibular vein and the facial artery was (-6.4 +-1.5mm, (9.8 +-1.3mm, (28.8 +-4.1mm and (11.6 +-1.6mm re
