Abstract :
Objective:–To document Posterior belly of Di–gastric Muscle – The landmark to identify Facial Nerve in Parotidectomy. Methods:– In this study, relationship between posterior belly of digastrics and facial nerve trunk recorded in 21 patients who undergone Parotidectomy in our Institute. Results:–In all patients, Facial Nerve trunk was identified above the posterior belly of Di–gastric muscle with range of 5 to 10 mm.
