Otorhinolaryngology and Head and Neck Surgery, All India Institute of Medical Sciences, Bibinagar, Bibinagar, IND.
Purpose: This study aimed to investigate the morphological variations in the foramen transversarium of the cervical vertebrae and their clinical implications. Understanding these variations is crucial for accurate diagnosis, treatment planning, and surgical procedures involving the cervical spine.
Materials And Methods: This descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted at the AIl India Institute of Medical Sciences, Bibinagar, India, and involved 150 dry cervical vertebrae specimens.
Anatomical and Radiological Findings of Abnormal Calcified Structures within and around the Foramen Transversarium and Its Clinical Implications.

Article Synopsis
- The foramen transversarium, located in the cervical vertebrae, is crucial for the passage of essential neurovascular structures, and abnormal ossifications in this area can lead to serious clinical issues.
- A study evaluating 182 dried cervical vertebrae and 190 patients with neck-related problems found various types of abnormal ossifications, including accessory foramina and stenosis.
- Notably, some patients experienced severe conditions like cervical kyphosis and spinal canal stenosis due to these changes, highlighting the importance of recognizing these ossifications for effective diagnosis and management in spinal disorders.
Vertebral arteria lusoria-Hyrtl's original description (1859), case illustration, and literature analysis.
Surg Radiol Anat
October 2024
Interventional Neuroradiology, The Johns Hopkins Hospital, The Johns Hopkins University, 1800 E Orleans Street, Baltimore, MD, 21287, USA.
Purpose: A translation of the initial observation of vertebral arteria lusoria reported by Hyrtl in 1859 is followed by a review of all cases published until May 2023 to identify the anatomical and clinical features characterizing the typical form of this rare variant.
Methods: PubMed, Google Scholar, and Google queries were performed with "vertebral arteria lusoria", "retroesophageal vertebral artery", and "aberrant vertebral artery" as keywords (in English, German, and French). A feature was considered typical when present in at least 75% of analyzed cases.
Morphometric Analysis of the Neural Arch of C2 Vertebra in Indian Population.

March 2024
Department of Anatomy, Christian Medical College, Vellore, Tamil Nadu, India.
Background And Objective: The most common injuries to upper cervical spine are fractures of the second cervical vertebrae. The study aims to evaluate the morphometry of the neural arch of the second cervical vertebrae in the South Indian population.
Materials And Methods: Sixty-three second cervical vertebrae of undetermined gender and age without any gross defect were used for the study.
Left Vertebral Artery Arising Directly From the Arch of the Aorta With a Prevailing Vascular Problem: A Case Report.

Aberrant origin of the vertebral artery is a rare case. Due to its important clinical significance during operations in the superior mediastinum and the root of the neck, the variations of this artery should be clarified, and any cadaveric case should be explored specifically if accompanied by any vascular problem. In this cadaveric case, the embalmed male cadaver was found to have a pacemaker wire inserted in the heart through the superior vena cava, denoting a vascular incompetence due to sinus arrhythmia.
