The temporal fascia is the dense fibrous layer that covers the temporalis muscle (Fig. 4.26) and its broad surface provides attachments to the superficial fibres of this muscle (Fig. 4.27).
How do you harvest temporalis fascia?
The temporalis fascia can be harvested using an endaural, retroauricular approach or by an additional superior laterally based skin incision. After hav- ing inserted the self-retaining retractors during the endaural approach, it is preferable to harvest the temporalis fascia to avoid readjustment of the retrac- tors.
What is the temporalis attached to?
The temporalis muscle attaches above to the bone and fascia in the temporal fossa, superior to the zygomatic arch, and below to the coronoid process of the mandible and along the mandibular ramus (Figure 6-17).
