RESUMEN
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.
RESUMEN
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.
