Fig. 1: Cadaveric dissection demonstrating two orbital branches of the infraorbital artery.

From: Anatomy of the infraorbital artery and its orbital branch

Fig. 1

The infraorbital nerve (ION, solid arrow), infraorbital artery (IOA, asterisk) and orbital branches of the IOA (dashed arrows) are demonstrated. A anterior, L lateral, M medial, P posterior. A Orbital floor dissection in the subperiosteal plane demonstrates the ION within its canal, with the IOA running medially. B Once the roof of the infraorbital canal was removed, the IOA and its two orbital branches could be clearly identified travelling medial to the ION.
