One of the rare anatomical variations that can be of significant importance for the dentist is the bifid mandibular canal. Many complications can occur from this condition such as failure of anesthesia when performing inferior alveolar nerve block, difficulties during the surgical extraction of the third mandibular molar, and during implants placement. Therefore, good knowledge of this conditio...

There are 3 pairs of turbinates defined: superior, middle, and inferior. They located throughout the lateral walls nasal cavity. The embryological evolution turbinate is a complex process. During embriologic development turbinate, anatomic variations may appear at multiple points. very few publication about this topic. Bifid inferior rare abnormality that easily identified on paranasal tomograp...

Bifid epiglot, genellikle izole bir anomali olmayıp sıklıkla sendromun parçası olarak izlenir. Hastalarda hipofizer ve hipotalamik bozukluklara bağlı primer/sekonder hipotroidizm, growth hormon eksikliği, hipoglisemi gibi endokrinolojik anormalliklerin yanısıra havayolu problemleri olabilir. Anestezi yönetimi hem olası de endokrin yetmezliklerle komplike

Carpal tunnel syndrome can be secondary in some patients, and vascular anomalies (usually a persistent median artery), median nerve variations, or both are among the etiologic factors. High division of the median nerve proximal to the carpal tunnel (known as a bifid median nerve) is a median nerve anomaly that has an incidence rate of 2.8%. This rare entity is often associated with various abno...

In this study the peculiar Andean grass genus Aphanelytrum, with two species, is reduced to Poa subsect. Aphanelytrum comb. & stat. nov. A third species, Festuca reclinata, is assigned to the subsection, which shows states transitional between a more typical Poa and Aphanelytrum. Poa subgen. Poa supersect. Homalopoa sect. Dioicopoa subsect. Aphanelytrum comb. & stat. nov. is characterized in ha...

The location and configuration of mandibular canal variations are important in surgical procedures involving the mandible, such as extraction of an impacted third molar, dental implant treatment, and sagittal split ramus osteotomy. We report 3 Japanese patients with bifid mandibular canals using panoramic radiograph and multi-slice helical computed tomography (CT) images. In 2 of the 5 sides, t...

The ureter is subjected to natural variation such as duplication. The partial duplication forming bifidity is one of its rare congenital anomalies. We report here a case of unilateral left bifid ureter encountered during cadaveric dissection. The bifidity in the present case was at its greater extent and in the form of Y shaped with superior and inferior segments. Proximally, both the segments ...
