Abstract
PURPOSE: To establish a model to quantitative histological analysis of the mandibular branch of the facial nerve in rats. METHODS: Eleven Wistar rats had their right and left mandibular branches of the facial nerve surgically removed and were sacrificed afterwards. Quantitative histological analysis was performed with: a) partial number of axons; b) partial area of the transversal cut of the nerve (9000μm²); c) partial density. The averages of partial density were obtained. The statistical study was established by Wilcoxon test (p=0.05). RESULTS: In relation to density of axons, comparison between sides shows no statistically significant difference (p=0.248; p=0.533). Mean partial density of distal and proximal samples was, respectively, 0.18 ± 0.02 and 0.19 ± 0.02 axons/μm². Comparison between proximal and distal samples shows no statistically significant difference (p=0.859; p=0.182). CONCLUSION: This study has successfully established a model to histological quantitative analysis of the mandibular branch of the facial nerve in rats.
OBJETIVO: Estabelecer um modelo para análise histológica quantitativa do ramo mandibular do nervo facial de ratos. MÉTODOS: Onze ratos Wistar tiveram os ramos mandibulares de seus nervos faciais direito e esquerdo removidos cirurgicamente, e submetidos à análise histológica quantitativa de suas regiões proximal e distal com: a) contagem total do número de axônios, b) medida da área parcial (9000μm²) de corte transversal do nervo, c) cálculo de densidade parcial (DP). RESULTADOS: Em relação à densidade dos axônios, a comparação entre os lados não mostrou diferença estatisticamente significativa (p=0,248; p=0,533). A densidade parcial média das amostras distais e proximais foi, respectivamente, 0,18 ± 0,02 e 0,19 ± 0,02 axônios/μm². A comparação entre as amostras proximais e distais não mostrou diferença estatisticamente significativa (p=0,859; p=0,182). CONCLUSÃO: Este estudo estabeleceu com sucesso um modelo de análise histológica quantitativa do ramo mandibular do nervo facial em ratos.
