The presence of this anatomical variation not always associated with symptoms. However, there a strong correlation between the process syndrome </br></br> <b>Aim:</b> study aims to calculate incidence processes in Greek population, analyze morphometric characteristics processes, compare these among sexes....

Despite the wide-spread knowledge among anatomists and surgeons that azygos vein lies on right side of vertebral column, various scientific works have been conducted which suggest existence left-sided veins. The displacement vessel seems to be related with aging, due crossover veins development osteophytes thoracic vertebrae. current case report confirms variation vein's course, highlights awareness relatively unusual location for surgeon region, underlines clinical significance such modern...

We report case left-sided muscle consisting two bellies. The deep belly inserts into usual site in middle area anteromedial aspect left humerus, whereas superficial through muscular slip brachial fascia medial intermuscular septum, forming...

The heart’s lymphatic system has been under research for many years both at a microscopic and macroscopic level. results so far significantly induce modern cardiologists to attribute pathologies of the heart disorders cardiac lymphatics. current review is an effort display progress knowledge regarding through work scientists devoted specific field. reader will gain detailed up date information be able comprehend thoroughly anatomy

Introduction An awareness of the anatomical parameters foot such as position and orientation sesamoid bones can be great value for etiology diagnostic approach to patients with hallux valgus (HV). The purpose this study was evaluate basic features measurements related characteristics HV in cadaveric material. Materials methods sample included 12 limbs 10 without a control group. We measured angle (HVA), first second intermetatarsal (IMA), fifth IMAs all samples. also recorded shape...

A double upper subscapular nerve on the right side was detected in a male cadaver, with proximal one arising from suprascapular and distal posterior division of trunk brachial plexus. Both them penetrated supplied uppermost portion subscapularis muscle. That anatomic variation associated median formed by two lateral roots. The origin pattern displays high variability, however presented combination variable has rarely been described literature. knowledge such an is essential for surgeon...

Introduction The current study aims to detect the incidence of occurrence a morphological variant impression for costoclavicular ligament, that is faceted apophysis clavicle which participates in formation an aberrant joint, so-called joint. Methods A material 208 dry clavicles, 107 right and 101 left side derived from osteological collection, was examined order likely presence facet at clavicular area ligament. Results We observed three cases oval-shaped apophysis, thus 1.44%, two clavicles...

In the current study, we display a rare association of an aberrant innervation sternocleidomastoid muscle by ansa cervicalis (AC) with tortuous common carotid artery (TCCA). specific, in male cadaver observed on right side cervical region, nerval branch remarkable size originating from most distal part AC’s superior root and after piercing belly omohyoid innervated portion muscle. Furthermore, noticed course initial artery. We discuss surgical significance awareness variations during...

Objective: Serum uric acid (SUA) is associated with many traditional cardiovascular risk factors such as arterial hypertension. Our aim was to investigate the relationship of SUA levels 10-year fatal disease. Design and method: We prospectively enrolled 113 subjects (mean age 53 ± 12 years) presented for evaluation in antihypertensive clinic. In all routine blood chemistry, including determination, echocardiographic examination, office 24 h ambulatory pressure (BP) monitoring were obtained....

Objective: Low blood pressure is associated with worse outcome in hypertensive patients coronary heart disease. A J curve phenomenon has been reported between and cardiovascular events those patients. The purpose of the study was to determine relationship on-treatment BP outcomes (death or transplantation) CAD impaired left ventricle systolic function.
