The Diversity of the Linguofacial Trunk.
Dumitru CC, Vrapciu AD, Rusu MC. Dumitru CC, et al. Medicina (Kaunas). 2024 Feb 8;60(2):291. doi: 10.3390/medicina60020291. Medicina (Kaunas). 2024. PMID: 38399578 Free PMC article.
Background and Objectives: Typically, the external carotid artery (ECA) sends off separate anterior branches: the superior thyroid, lingual, and facial arteries. These could, however, form common trunks: thyrolinguofacial, linguofacial (LFT), or thyrolingual. Althou …

The lingual-facial-ascending pharyngeal trunk.
Triantafyllou G, Papadopoulos-Manolarakis P, Tudose RC, Rusu MC, Tsakotos G, Piagkou M. Triantafyllou G, et al. Surg Radiol Anat. 2025 Oct 8;47(1):225. doi: 10.1007/s00276-025-03721-w. Surg Radiol Anat. 2025. PMID: 41060391 Free PMC article.
On the left side, the APA originated in common with a short linguofacial trunk (LFT) that further gave rise to the lingual and facial arteries (LA and FA), forming a trifurcated LA-FA-APA trunk. ...

A scarce combination of arterial variants: an occipital artery originating from the internal carotid artery associated with a linguofacial trunk.
Triantafyllou G, Vassiou K, Duparc F, Vlychou M, Tsakotos G, Kalamatianos T, Piagkou M. Triantafyllou G, et al. Surg Radiol Anat. 2024 Sep;46(9):1525-1530. doi: 10.1007/s00276-024-03436-4. Epub 2024 Jul 13. Surg Radiol Anat. 2024. PMID: 39002006
In the current case report, an aberrant OA has been found coexisting with a linguofacial trunk (LFT) on the right hemineck of a 51-year-old male patient. The OA was identified originating from the cervical internal carotid artery (ICA) at the level of the second cer …

Thyrolinguofacial trunk arising from the common carotid artery and diagnosed by computed tomography angiography.
Asami S, Uchino A, Natsuyama Y, Usami Y, Arai N, Suda S, Baba Y. Asami S, et al. Surg Radiol Anat. 2024 May;46(5):659-663. doi: 10.1007/s00276-024-03313-0. Epub 2024 Feb 28. Surg Radiol Anat. 2024. PMID: 38418595
RESULTS: The TLFT originated from the anterior wall of the right CCA and was divided into the superior thyroid artery and linguofacial trunk (LFT). The LFT was divided into lingual and facial arteries. In addition, we observed fusiform dilatation of the intracranial …
