The mental foramen (MF) is a small opening located on the anterolateral aspect of the body of the mandible. It represents the exit point of the mandibular canal through which the mental neurovascular bundle emerges [1]. The mental nerve is the terminal branch of the inferior alveolar nerve. The nerve is accompanied by the mental artery, a branch of the inferior alveolar artery. The mental nerve...

Variations of the intracranial venous sinuses are important to the surgeon during intraoperative procedures and to the clinician during imaging interpretation. We report a male cadaver found to have a rare venous sinus variation. In all likelihood, this sinus corresponded to the rarely reported accessory venous sinus of Hyrtl. The sinus was approximately 5 mm in width and traveled from the sphe...

Methods: Twenty dry human hemimandibles were examed by using periapical and panoramic radiography, and computed tomography. An electronic digital caliper was used to measure the tracings obtained from the radiographies in three different times (groups A1, A2 and A3) and in the cross-sectioned hemimandibles (group B). Measurements consisted of: Measure 1 – from the upper limit of the alveolar ri...

It had been reported that the domestication of dogs began in the late Paleolithic and Mesolithic period.

The investigation was carried out on nineteen mandibles and upper jaws from adult dogs aged between 4-8-year-old without any a...

An extremely rare variation of the (left) middle meningeal artery (MMA) originating from the basilar artery, detected incidentally during cerebral angiography, is reported. The right MMA was normal and an accessory meningeal artery arising from the maxillary artery was present on both the sides. The foramen spinosum on the variant side was absent. This abnormal origin of the MMA can be explaine...
