Anatomic relationship of the sternocleidomastoid branch of the occipital artery with the spinal accessory nerve
Purpose
This study was designed to determine if the sternocleidomastoid branch of the occipital artery (SBOA) may be used to reliably predict the location of the spinal accessory nerve (SAN) during neck dissections.
Materials and methods
A retrospective cohort study was performed on patients undergoing neck dissections involving level II. The primary outcome was the frequency in which the SBOA inserted into the sternocleidomastoid muscle (SCM) within 5mm from the SAN along axial and vertical planes. Baseline characteristics were tested for association with these outcomes.
Results
87 neck dissections on 54 patients were evaluated. The SBOA inserted into the SCM within 5mm of the SAN in 86/87 cases (98.9%) axially and 85/86 cases (98.8%) vertically. The SBOA inserted into the SCM and average of 0.6mm (+/- 1.4) superficial and 0.6mm (+/- 2.5) caudal. The SBOA inserted superficial to the nerve in 66/87 cases (75.9%) compared to deep, and caudal to the nerve in 50/86 cases (58.1%) compared to cephalad. There was no association with age, sex, body mass index, laterality, head and neck radiation, or level II nodal disease.
Conclusions
The SBOA is closely associated with the SAN and may serve as a reliable landmark to help preserve the nerve during neck dissections.
期刊介绍:
This large-size, atlas-format journal presents detailed illustrations of new surgical procedures and techniques in otology, rhinology, laryngology, reconstructive head and neck surgery, and facial plastic surgery. Feature articles in each issue are related to a central theme by anatomic area or disease process. The journal will also often contain articles on complications, diagnosis, treatment or rehabilitation. New techniques that are non-operative are also featured.
