Abstract

Foramen Vesalius is known to be an inconstant foramen, which appears in the anteriomedial side of the foramen oval. It is classified into the open type and closed type. The importance of this foramen lies in the fact that an infected thrombus from an extracranial source may reach cavernous sinus. We have conducted this study into 250 sides out of 125 skulls. The foramen Vesalius found in 90 sides out of the 250 sides, with in that 55 were right and 35 were left side. The incidence was 36%; out of that 22% was right and 14% left side. We have observed the incidence of bilateral and unilateral foramen Vesalius also, it was 24% that is 30 out of 125 skulls and unilateral was 16% that was 20 skulls out of 125 skulls. The knowledge of foramen Vesalius is important for neurosurgeons and anat omists.

Abstract

This study was conducted to determine presence of mastoid canals and grooves, totally 125 skulls were used for this study. The mastoid canals and grooves were present in 59.2% and 20% respectively. The knowledge of mastoid canals and grooves is very important for otolaryngologists and neurosurgeons.

Abstract

The transverse ligament of is a thick, strong band which arches across the ring of the atlas and retains the odontoid process in contact with the anterior arch. It is firmly attached on either side to a small tubercle on the medial surface of the lateral mass of atlas. We have reported in present study a dry skull with ossification of transverse ligament of atlas.

Abstract

The mental foramen is a funnel like opening located on the anterolateral aspect of the mandible, which marks the termination of the mandibular canal, mental nerve and vessels exits through it. The mental foramen is an important landmark to facilitate diagnostic , surgical local anesthetic and other invasive procedures of the oral and maxillofacial region. Totally 70 mandibles were used for this study. It was found that, the mean transverse diameter was 3.19 ± 0.82mm and the mean longitudinal diameter 2.50 ± 0.61mm. The location of mental foramen was found 72.43% in line with the longitudinal axis of the second molar teeth, 13.57% was present in between first and second molar teeth. In relation with location the mean distance between sympysis menti and foramen was 26.62 ± 4.89mm on right side and left side it was 26.40 ± 4.32mm. The mean distance between mental foramen and alveolar margin was 13.80 ± 3.56mm on right side and 13.21 ± 3.75mm on left. The mean distance between mental foramen and lower border of mandible was 12.40 ± 2.70mm on right side and 12.21 ± 2.89mm on left. The shape of foramen was oval in 65%. The knowledge of mental foramen is very important for blockage of mental nerve.
