The Origin and Course of the Blood Supply to the Lower Eyelid Orbital Fat : Anatomical Study and Clinical Significance
© 2024. Springer Science+Business Media, LLC, part of Springer Nature and International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery..
PURPOSE: The aim of this study is to investigate the origin and course of the orbital fat arterial supply in the lower eyelid using traditional anatomy and three-dimensional computed tomography (CT).
METHODS: Twenty-seven cadaver heads were infused with mercury sulfide contrast media through the ophthalmic artery, maxillary artery, transverse facial artery, and facial artery. CT images were obtained after contrast agent injection, three-dimensional CT scans were reconstructed, and the cadaver heads were dissected.
RESULTS: Forty-five qualified hemifaces showed that the orbital fat arterial supply in the lower eyelid originates primarily from the inferomedial muscular trunk (IMT) of the ophthalmic artery and the orbital branch of the infraorbital artery. The medial branch of the IMT terminated at the medial fat pad (35.6%) or the orbital floor (64.4%). The lateral branch terminated at the inferior oblique (IO) muscle (28.9%) or the central and lateral fat pads (17.8%). In 53.3%, the lateral branch extended to the anterior part of the lateral fat pad and terminated in the orbital wall or the zygomaticoorbital foramina. The orbital branch of the infraorbital artery coursed between the orbital floor and the orbital fat, providing supply to the IO muscle, inferior rectus (IR) muscle, nasolacrimal duct, and orbital fat.
CONCLUSION: This study elucidated the origin and course of the orbital fat arterial supply in the lower eyelid, which may help to avoid reducing the blood supply of the orbital fat pedicles during surgery.
