There is a high risk of injury to the temporal branch of the facial nerve during operations on the head and neck because of the complexity of its course. We report an aberrant branch that arose from the main trunk before bifurcation into the temporofacial and cervicofacial divisions. It had no anastomosis with other branches, and damage could have caused uncompensated injury.
