DETERMINATION OF THE LENGTH AND PENETRATION POINT OF THE MASSETERIC NERVE IN THE MASSETER MUSCLE
With the aim of helping in the diagnosis and treatment of the lesions that affect the muscles enervate for masseteric nerve, as well as to offer anatomical information of great importance for the accomplishment of surgeries in the infratemporal area we have done this study.
