Aims: To study the various positions of vermiform appendix, and its relation to various diseases of the vermiform appendix, and average length and external diameter of the vermiform appendix. Materials & Methods: This study was conducted on 200 cases – 100 cadavers from the dissection laboratory with an age range of 50 – 90 years. The dissection was performed in the dissection hall of Smt. N.H.L. Municipal Medical College, Ahmedabad, B. J. Medical College, Ahmedabad, A.M.C.M.E.T. Medical College, Ahmedabad, and 100 cases from postmortum room of V. S. Hospital from August 2009 to December 2012. Result and Observation: classic coeliac trunk with emission of the left gastric, splenic and hepatic arteries was found in 76(76 %) cadavers. Haller’s tripod, in which the three arteries originated at the same level and in the terminal portion of the coeliac trunk was observed in 18(18%) cadavers. In 16 cadavers inferior phrenic arteries originated from coeliac trunk was observed. In 8 cadaver’s variations regarding disposition of the left gastric, splenic and hepatic arteries also regarding the number of emitted arteries observed. Conclusion: Appendix is only organ in our body which has not constant anatomical position. From various positions of vermiform appendix we can understand the possible outcome of the appendicitis specifically location of site of pain
Background: The coeliac trunk is an integral part of the circulatory system as it delivers blood from the heart to major organs within the abdominal cavity. The blood that it delivers is oxygenated and carries essential nutrients and immune system particles that can aid in life sustaining processes and can also prevent the development of diseases and complications from illnesses. Aims & Objective: (1) To study the anatomy of coeliac trunk, through its diameter, length related to their branches and distance from superior mesenteric artery. (2) To study the clinical implication of coeliac trunk in case of the variations and anomalous formation of coeliac trunk. Material and Methods: Morphology of coeliac trunk was studied in 100 formalin embalmed cadaver, aged between 50 to 80 years. Dissection method was use for this study. Results: Measurement of the length of the coeliac trunk up to the left gastric, Measurement of the length of coeliac trunk up to common hepatic and/or splenic artery, Measurement of coeliac trunk diameter, Distance between coeliac trunk and the superior mesenteric artery were taken. Conclusion: Knowledge of variations concerning the coeliac trunk is of extreme clinical importance in the areas of the laparoscopic surgery, and radiological procedures in the upper abdomen, and should be kept in mind by clinicians to avoid complications.
Background: Head of appendix can be placed in different situations but the base of appendix is connected to the cecum. The variation in the situations is classified into six locations: retrocecal, pelvic, subcecal, paraileal, retroileal, and subhepatic.
Background: The occipital bone develops partly in cartilage and partly in membrane. The squamous part of occipital bone between two parietal bones occasionally presents a separate bones which are termed as inca, pre-interparietal bone or interparietal bone. Aims & Objective:(1) To determine the incidence of interparietal bone in skulls of Gujarat region. (2) To study different anomalies of interparietal bone and compare it with other studies. Material and Methods: Total 289 dried macerated skulls from Gujarat region were studied for incidence and type of interparietal bone anomaly. Results: Out of total 289 skulls interparietal bone was found in 23 bones giving incidence of 7.96%. Eight different varieties of interparietal bone anomalies were found and noted. Conclusion: Different anomalies of interparietal bone can be easily interpreted using the knowledge of ossification of interparietal part of occipital bone. Pre-interparietal bone is a misnomer and should not be reported separately.
Background & Aims: The Lumbar plexus describes the origins of 4 of the nerves supplying the lower limb (femoral, lateral cutaneous nerve of the thigh, obturator and genitofemoral) along with the ilioinguinal and iliohypogastric nerves. Aim of this study is to study the abnormalities in formation of lumbar plexus and communication between the branches of lumbar plexus and its clinical implication. Material & Method: This study was conducted on 100 cadavers (67 male and 33 female) with an age range of 50 – 90 years. Results: No abnormality was found related to roots and trunk. Post fixed lumbar plexus (bilateral) were found in 6 cadavers. Genital branch and femoral branch was found to arise separately from the root in 22 cadavers (bilaterally). Accessory lateral femoral cutaneous nerve was observed on both sides in 4 cadavers. Femoral nerve was found to arise from dorsal division of L3-4-5 in 8 cadavers (bilateral). Accessory obturator nerve was found bilaterally in 26 cadavers and it was arising from L3-4. Conclusion:Knowledge of variations in the formation and branching pattem of lumbar plexus is very important during lumbar plexus block for various surgical and palliative procedures.
