title: [Arterial vascularization of the temporomandibular joint].
abstract: Anatomical and radiological study of the arteries of the temporo-mandibular joint in 18 foetuses and 4 adults. Branches arising from the superficial temporal artery, from the anterior tympanic artery as well as from the deep posterior temporal artery are found in all cases. Branches arising from four other arteries did not occur regularly: those coming from the deep auricular artery, from the transverse facial artery, from the middle meningeal artery, or sometimes directly from the maxillary artery.
