AI Article Synopsis

  • Bifid condyle is a rare condition resulting from disrupted blood supply during development and can occur on one or both sides.
  • A case study examines the bifid condyle using 3D imaging in coronal, sagittal, and axial views.
  • The text discusses the condition's causes, symptoms, diagnosis, and both non-surgical and surgical treatment options.

Article Abstract

Bifid condyle is a rare developmental anomaly that results from an obstructed blood supply during its development. Bifid condyle is more often unilateral, although bilateral. A case of a bifid condyle is evaluated three-dimensionally in three orthogonal planes namely coronal, sagittal and axial sections. The etiology, clinical features, diagnostic, non-surgical and surgical treatment modalities of bifid condyle are discussed.

Although the bifid or trifid mandibular condyle is a rare entity, the tetrafid mandibular condyle is a more rare entity. This article presents the first case of tetrafid and trifid mandibular condyle of a 31-year-old patient with a history of previous trauma. The patient had with symptoms such as crepitus of the right temporomandibular joint and pain upon palpation in the preauricular region and masseter muscle.

Article Synopsis
  • - The study examines the rare skeletal anomaly known as bifid rib, which appears in less than 1.5% of the population and faces challenges in identification due to postmortem damage and similarity to other conditions.
  • - It presents five cases of rib bifurcation from four individuals across different populations in the Kujawy region of Poland, analyzed through morphological and paleoradiological methods.
  • - The research also critiques existing evidence linking bifurcated ribs to naevoid basal cell carcinoma syndrome and proposes a new way to classify this anomaly in osteological studies.

Article Synopsis
  • The nasal bones are crucial for the structure of the external nose and the maxillofacial area, forming a paired, quadrangular shape connected to other facial bones.
  • In a study, two adult human skulls showed variations in the anatomy of the nasal bones, including one skull with a bifid and hooked nasal septum.
  • Recognizing these anatomical differences is significant for maxillofacial surgeries and should be taken into account when analyzing facial imaging, despite being relatively rare.

Background: Congenital rib deformity is a common thoracic deformity that has a potentially far-reaching impact on the growth and lung function development of young children. Early diagnosis and accurate assessment of congenital rib deformity is of great importance. This study was to retrospectively analyze the number, location, and types of deformities, imaging features as well as clinical symptoms of children with congenital rib deformities.

Bifid mandibular canals are common anatomical findings with variations based on direction and location of branching, which carry significant clinical implications for endodontic and surgical dental procedures. This case report describes a previously unreported ectopic dental canal that branches off the superior border of the mandibular canal, enters the apex of a mandibular second molar, traverses through the root, anastomoses with the root canal system, and subsequently exits through the lingual aspect of the root. The anastomosis of this ectopic dental canal with the mesial lingual canal led to significant bleeding during rotary instrumentation.
