Anatomic Variations of the Paranasal Sinuses: Ct Examination for Endoscopic Sinus Surgery
(1999) Arslan, H.; Aydinlioglu, A.; Bozkurt, M.; Egeli, E.
Chronic rhinosinusitis endoscopic surgery requires an accurate evaluation of diseases and paranasal sinus anatomic variations. This study aims to show the main anatomical variations in the ostiomeatal complex and paranasal sinuses which are usually depicted by computed tomography (CT). CT scans obtained 2 mm thickness in axial and coronal plane from a series of 200 patients with chronic sinusitis were examined to determine the prevalence of anatomic variants. Anatomical variations determined were supraorbital recess in 6%, concha bullosa in 30%, sphenomaxillary plate in 17%, infra-orbital ethmoid cells (Haller's cells) in 6%, spheno-ethmoid cells (Onodi's cells) in 12%, pneumatization of the anterior clinoid process in 6%, carotid artery bulging into the sphenoid sinus in 8%, pneumatization of the uncinate process in 2%, paradoxical curvature of the middle turbinate in 3% and septal deviation in 36%. Level difference between the ethmoid roof and nasal vault was an average of 8 mm in right side and 9.5 mm in left side. Awareness of these different variations will help the rhinologic surgeon in his orientation during endoscopic surgical procedures.
The Prevalence of Supracondyloid Process in the Living: a Radiographic Study
(Univ West indies Faculty Medical Sciences, 2010) Aydinlioglu, A.; Gumrukcuoglu, F. N.; Koyun, N.
Objective: The spur or the supracondyloid process of the humerus has been of special interest to anatomists, anthropologists and clinicians. Apart from the anthropological research by ancient authors and clinical studies carried out half a century ago, no study of this variation appear in the literature. The aim of the present work is to investigate this variation in the living subjects. Methods: The present information was performed on direct radiograms of the elbow obtained from the volunteer individuals. This study was carried out over a 3-year period from 2005-2008. Results: The spur was found in 9 cases among the 903 persons examined. Bilateral occurrence of the process was higher than that reported in the literature. The cases with the spur reported mild pain in the forearm over a long period. Conclusion: This study showed a higher occurrence of bilateral supracondyloid process than previously reported. It is also suggested that the cases reported as asymptomatic may not be fully free of the complaint of pain which might assist the clinician in their diagnosis.
The Relationship of Sex Differences To the Anatomy of the Corpus Callosum in the Living Human Being
(Turkish Neurosurgical Society, 1996) Aydinlioglu, A.; Diyarbakirli, S.; Yuceer, N.; Keles, P.; Unal, O.; Erdogan, A.R.
The area of the midsagittal section of the corpus callosum, particularly in the region of the splenium was found to be greater in women than in men. The magnetic resonance imaging of seventy adults was examined and showed the same association previously observed, between sex differences and area of the corpus callosum and its splenium. The quantitative results supported a relationship between variations in callosal anatomy and sex differences in human beings. Findings are discussed in the light of the related literature.
