| Abstract | ||||
| Twenty-eight heads of clinically normal adult goats of both sexes were used to identify the different arteries supplying the principal salivary glands as well as the distribution of those arteries within each of theses glands. A latex injection, corrosion casting and radiographic preparations and tissue clearing procedures were employed. The obtained results had revealed that the parotid salivary gland received its arterial blood supply from from the external carotid, lingual, caudal auricular, superficial temporal, transverse facial and rostral auricular arteries.. The mandibular salivary gland received its main arterial supply through branches from the common carotid, external carotid and lingual arteries. The monsotomatic sublingual salivary gland received its arterial supply through the sublingual artery while The polystomatic one received glandular branches originated either from the lingual artery , the sublingual artery or from the arch between the two lingual arteries. | ||||
