Wormian bones are accessory bones are not normally present in skull. They may or may not be associated with clinical abnormalities. In the present study a significant number of wormian bones were identified at the Department of Anatomy, Andhra Medical College, Visakhapatnam. Their incidence with other population were done in the present study.
Renal artery variations are more important for surgeons and clinicians. As these variations alter and influence the surgical procedures including intervention methods. These variations are associated with physiological and embryological changes which will alter the medical treatment. The present work is conducted in the department of anatomy, Andhra medical college, Visakhapatnam for 50 cadavers for a period of 3 years. In one case 3 additional renal arteries arising from abdominal aorta one on right, two on left side were found.
During the educational gross anatomy dissections of the infra-clavicular part of brachial plexus of a 50-year-old male cadaver in our department of anatomy,Andhra medical college, Visakhapatnam, we have encountered a neuroanatomical variation. The lateral cord of brachial plexus and its branches, had a different configuration. On the right side ,the median nerve received very few fibres from the lateral cord of brachial plexus during its formation. On both sides the musculo-cutaneous nerve has given an accessory branch which again joined the main trunk of the median nerve.This variation has clinical importance in median nerve lesions and its distinctive diagnosis. Lesions of the median nerve, if lesion was proximal to this accessory branches, muscles and cutaneous innervations related to this branch were normal.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
