The Comparison of the Right and Left Sigmoid Sinus Cross-Sectional Areas in Fetal Period and the Factors Affecting the Venous Dominance.

Objectives: Skull base is an important and a challenging area for surgeons. Success in skull base surgery depends on various factors such as pre-operative evaluation, appropriate surgical technique, anesthesia duration, intraoperative neuromonitorization and wound care.

Materials And Methods: This study was performed in the Anatomy dissection laboratory of M.

Histopathologic evaluation of Ecballium elaterium applied to nasal mucosa in a rat rhinosinusitis model.

This study aimed to evaluate the antimicrobial effects of the medicinal plant Ecballium elaterium, which is topically applied as a traditional medicine for the treatment of rhinosinusitis. Pure and extract forms of E elaterium were applied to the nasal cavity of rats for the treatment of Streptococcus-pneumoniae -induced rhinosinusitis. The nasal mucosa, soft palate, and trachea of the rats were harvested in the first hour, third day, and third week for histopathologic evaluation.

The Predictability Precision of Superior Semicircular Canal Through Radiological Assessment and Microanatomical Dissection.

Objective: There is still ongoing research on the relationship of arcuate eminence (AE) and superior semicircular canal (SSC). We aimed to evaluate the precision of predictability of SSC through the morphology of AE via radiological means.

Materials And Methods: This investigation is performed on 12 dry skulls belonging to Mersin University Medical Faculty department of anatomy.

The Measurement of Various Anatomical Structures and Assessment of Morphometric Development of Fetal Skull Base.

Background: As the skull base has a complex anatomy, we underline the importance of anomalies for side asymmetry. It is useful to investigate relationship between anatomical structures for the surgical procedure orientations. Dural adherence, enlarged superior petrosal sinus, influence of neural crest cells, and cranial base ossification are among the factors in morphometric growth on skull base.

The Effects of Yoga in Patients Suffering from Subjective Tinnitus.

 Tinnitus is a perception of sound in the absence of an external source and it is a distressing issue. Yoga is a system of mind-body practices with the goal of uniting the body, mind and soul. It has been shown to reduce anxiety and stress, as well as improving the quality of life.

Oropharyngeal Hairy Polyp Causing Dysphagia.

Hairy polyp is a rare, benign tumor that comprises ectodermal and mesodermal germ layers. The embryogenesis of hairy polyp is precisely unknown, and concurrently, it has a female predominance. Although hairy polyp is observed in every part of the body; it is frequently located in the nasopharynx and oropharynx.

Thyroid isthmus agenesis associated with thyroid papillary carcinoma. [corrected].

A wide range of morphological varieties and developmental anomalies of the thyroid gland have been reported in literature such as hypoplasia, ectopy, hemiagenesis, and agenesis. Out of these, the incidence of agenesis of the thyroid isthmus is rare, and very few cases have been reported. In the present case report, a female patient was found with agenesis of thyroid isthmus with thyroid papillary carcinoma in the right lobe.
