Mastoid process of temporal bone.
Floor muscles of digastric triangle.
The digastric muscle divides the anterior triangle of the neck into three smaller divisions.
Submandibular triangle is bordered by the mandible and bellies of the digastric muscle.
Digastric triangle also known as submandibular triangle is named due to it is position in the middle of the two bellies of the digastric muscle and inferior towards the base of the mandible.
It is covered by the integument superficial fascia platysma and deep fascia ramifying in which are branches of the facial nerve and.
Infrahyoid muscles omohyoid sternohyoid sternothyroid and thyrohyoid.
2 bellies of digastric anterior.
The two bellies of the muscle have different embryonic origins and hence are supplied by different cranial nerves.
This salivary gland can be described as having two lobes which are divided by the posterior border of the mylohyoid muscle.
Superior posterior belly of the digastric muscle.
Investing fascia covers the roof of the triangle while visceral fascia covers the floor.
The carotid triangle of the neck has the following boundaries.
Below by the posterior belly of the digastricus.
Muscles nerves blood vessels glands.
However other muscles that have two separate muscle bellies include the ligament of treitz omohyoid occipitofrontalis.
The digastric muscle is composed of two bellies anterior and posterior connected by an intermediate round tendon.
The digastric muscle also digastricus named digastric as it has two bellies is a small muscle located under the jaw the term digastric muscle refers to this specific muscle.
Digastric or submandibular triangle.
On floor of mouth between mandible and genioglossus.
The triangles of the neck are surgically focused first described from early dissection based anatomical studies which predated cross sectional anatomical description based on imaging see deep spaces of the neck.
The carotid triangle the submental triangle and the submandibular triangle.
This paired triangle contains some very important structures such as the common carotid artery internal carotid.
Lateral medial border of the sternocleidomastoid muscle.
In front by the anterior belly of the digastricus.
Suprahyoid muscles digastric ant and post belly mylohyoid geniohyoid and stylohyoid.
Digastric fossa on the deep surface of symphysis menti of the mandible.
It lies below the body of the mandible and extends in a curved form from the mastoid.
Above by the lower border of the body of the mandible and a line drawn from its angle to the mastoid process.
The anterior triangle is subdivided by the hyoid bone suprahyoid and infrahyoid muscles into four triangles.
Muscles digastric muscle stylohyoid geniohyoid mylohyoid hyoglossus middle pharyngeal constrictor nerves mylohyoid nerve cn v.
A major landmark of the submandibular triangle is the submandibular gland innervated by the facial nerve.
