Purpose: The purpose of this study is to investigate the morphometric properties of the internal carotid artery (ICA) by measuring the diameters and angles of its segments and exploring variations related to sex and the presence of aneurysms.

Methods: Digital subtraction angiography (DSA) images were utilized from 130 aneurysm patients and 75 non-aneurysm individuals to create 3D ICA models using 3D Slicer software. Segment diameters were measured via Autodesk Meshmixer 3.

Article Synopsis
  • The study investigates the 3D structure of the orbits in healthy Anatolian adults to enhance understanding of their anatomy and clinical relevance using MDCT images.
  • A total of 126 individuals (56 males and 70 females) were analyzed, focusing on various measurements such as diameters, circumferences, and distances related to the orbit.
  • The findings highlight the reproducibility of measurements and provide important anatomical data that can assist in surgical planning, implant placement, and improving overall patient care.

The latissimus dorsi is the largest muscle in the human body, located in the lower posterior thorax, and it contributes to motion in the upper extremity and provides assistance in respiration. This case report describes a rare occurrence of a unilateral absence of the latissimus dorsi accompanied by contralateral scoliosis in a 73-year-old female cadaver. The absence of the muscle along with the absence of the thoracodorsal nerve and branches of the subscapular and axillary arteries was identified during a standard dissection course.

Purpose: The infratemporal fossa contains important neurovascular components and is directly related to other anatomical regions and structures. The morphometric distances between the bones forming its borders have not been thoroughly investigated. The aim of this study was to determine the morphometry of the infratemporal fossa.
