Success of endodontic treatment requires the knowledge and morphology of root canal anatomy. Undetected additional canals in mandibular premolar is a common reason for endodontic failure. This presents with diagnostic difficulty and subsequent flare ups and poor prognosis. Location of additional canals is the key to successful endodontic management. This case report describes endodontic managem...

Anatomy of the root canal system always effects endodontic treatment outcome. Mandibular premolar teeth show extreme variations in root canal morphology. First premolars usually exhibit basic one root and one canal anatomy. The occurrence of three roots in mandibular first premolar has not been commonly reported in literature. This article reports a case of successful nonsurgical endodontic man...

a detailed knowledge of root canal anatomy is a prerequisite for successful endodontic treatment. such information is highly dependent upon the ethnicity of the population of interest. lack of sufficient national information concerning internal anatomy can lead clinicians to increase their rate of treatment success. the aim of this study was to evaluate external root morphology and root canal a...

Background The right ventricular (RV) morphology and function are important parameters for the diagnosis of cardiopulmonary diseases and serve as predictors for the longterm outcome. To date there are little data about right heart characteristics due to its complex anatomy. Since cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) is the gold-standard for the evaluation of left and right cardiac anatomy and funct...

Volar locking plate (VLP) fixation has become the standard surgical treatment for distal radius fractures. However, flexor tendon rupture is one of the major complications following volar plating. This detailed review on the anatomy and morphology of the volar distal radius might facilitate appropriate placement of the volar plate and thereby avoid flexor tendon rupture. We introduce safe and s...
