The previously undescribed variant of the thyrohyoid muscle and its potential impact on surgical procedures.

The thyrohyoid muscle belongs to the infrahyoid group located in the carotid triangle. It normally originates from thyroid cartilage and inserts into hyoid bone. Quite often, it is continuous with the sternohyoid muscle.

The quadratus femoris muscle anatomy: Do we know everything?

Introduction: The purpose of this study was to characterize the morphological variations in the quadratus femoris muscle (QF) and to create an anatomical classification that could be used in the planning of surgical procedures in this area, radiological imaging, and rehabilitation.

Materials And Methods: Ninety-two lower limbs from 46 cadavers, fixed in 10 % formalin solution, were examined.

Results: The QF muscle was present in all specimens.

The morphological variability of the piriformis muscle.

Background: The aim of the study is to create several classifications of the piriformis muscle (PM): proximal and distal attachments, potential fusions, and the relationship with the sciatic nerve. It is the first comprehensive anatomical examination of this subject.

Materials And Methods: One hundred and twenty-four lower limbs from 62 cadavers, fixed in 10% formalin, were examined.

Congenital, Acquired, and Trauma-Related Risk Factors for Thoracic Outlet Syndrome-Review of the Literature.

Thoracic outlet syndrome is a group of disorders that affect the upper extremity and neck, resulting in compression of the neurovascular bundle that exits the thoracic outlet. Depending on the type of compressed structure, the arterial, venous, and neurogenic forms of TOS are distinguished. In some populations, e.
