Anomalous branching of the axillary artery: a case report.

We present a case regarding the anomalous branching in the third part of the axillary artery on the left side in a 35-year-old male Nepalese cadaver. In the third part the axillary artery divided into superficial brachial and deep brachial arteries. The superficial brachial artery continued in the arm without giving any branches and ended in the cubital fossa dividing into radial and ulnar arteries. The deep brachial artery gave rise to subscapular, profunda brachii, articular branch to the shoulder joint, anterior circumflex humeral artery and posterior circumflex humeral artery. This variation is very rare and incidence is around 0.12-3.2% in the available literature. The normal and abnormal anatomy of the axillary region is having practical importance for the vascular radiologist and surgeon and it should be known for accurate diagnostic interpretation.

Loss of permanent mandibular lateral incisor and canine tooth buds through extraoral sinus: report of a case.

Extraoral sinus tract may occur as a result of an inflammatory process associated with the necrotic pulp. Several non odontogenic disorders may also produce an extraoral sinus tract, the differential diagnosis of these clinical findings is of prime importance in providing appropriate clinical care. Presented here is a case report of 4 year old female child with extraoral sinus tract through which the tooth buds of mandibular permanent left lateral incisor and mandibular permanent left canine were lost. The extraoral sinus was due to mandibular left primary canine with class IX fracture (Ellis and Davey's classification).
