Cervical branch of the facial nerve
(Redirected from Cervical branch)

The cervical branch of the facial nerve runs forward beneath the Platysma, and forms a series of arches across the side of the neck over the suprahyoid region.
One branch descends to join the cervical cutaneous nerve from the cervical plexus; others supply the Platysma.
