Debate on the Morphological Variability of the Lateral Pterygoid Muscle—Discrepancies, Speculations and New Original Anatomical Samples
The lateral pterygoid muscle (LPM), a critical component of the masticatory muscles, typically comprises upper (SLPM) and lower (ILPM) heads. However, it is essential to note that the LPM’s structure is not a constant feature, as the number of bundles and their topography can vary. Moreover, additio...
