    Case Report 281 Variant Origins of Arteries in the Carotid Triangle - A Case Report B. V. Murlimanju, MD; Latha V. Prabhu, MS; Mangala M. Pai, MD; Dhanya Jayaprakash, MBBS; Vasudha V. Saralaya, MS The left superior laryngeal artery was observed arising from the external carotid artery instead of the superior thyroid artery in the cadaver of an approximately 70 year-old Asian man. In addition, on the same side, the superior thyroid artery arose from the common carotid artery 2 cm before the bifurcation instead of its usual origin from the external carotid artery. From the external carotid artery, the lingual and facial arteries arose from the com- mon linguofacial trunk. The nerves in the carotid triangle were normal in course. No varia- tions were observed on the right side carotid system. The multiple variations in this case have not been previously described. The embryogenesis of this combination of variations is not clear, but the anatomic consequences may have important clinical implications. As angiography has gained popularity in diagnostic approaches in recent years, it is essential to be aware of these variations so that they are not overlooked in differential diagnoses.

This area is subdivided by an obliquely prominent sternocleidomastoid muscle into anterior and posterior cervical triangles. Anterior cervical triangle is subdivided into four smaller triangles: -Submandibular triangle: Contains the submandibular salivary gland, hypoglossal nerve, mylohyiod muscle, and facial nerve. -Carotid triangle: Contains the carotid arteries and branches, internal jugular vein, and vagus nerve. -Omotracheal triangle: Includes the infrahyoid musculature and thyroid glands with the parathyroid glands. -Submental triangle: Beneath the chin. Figure 1: Anterior cervical muscles. 2 Posterior cervical triangle: The inferior belly of the omohyoid divides it into two triangles: -Occipital triangle: The contents include the accessory nerve, supraclavicular nerves, and upper brachial plexus. -Subclavian triangle: The contents include the supraclavicular nerves, Subclavian vessels, brachial plexus, suprascapular vessels, transverse cervical vessels, external jugular vein, and the nerve to the Subclavian muscle. The main arteries in the neck are the common carotids arising differently, one on each side. On the right, the common carotid arises at the bifurcation of the brachiocephalic trunk behind the sternoclavicular joint; on the left, it arises from the highest point on arch of the aorta in the chest.

Although a multitude of studies have been devoted to issues associated with the use and application of the recent version of the anatomical terminology in both theoretical medicine and clinical practice, there are still many unresolved problems such as confusing terms, inconsistencies, and errors, including grammar and spelling mistakes. The aim of this article is to describe the current situation of the anatomical terminology and its usage in practice, as well as explain why it is so important to use precise, appropriate, and valid anatomical terms during the everyday communication among physicians from all medical branches. In this review, we discuss some confusing, obsolete, and erroneous terms that are still commonly used by many clinicians, and surgeons in particular, during the process of diagnosis and treatment. The use of these ambiguous, erroneous, and obsolete terms enhances the risk of miscommunication.

  • A Mnemonic for Neck Triangles
    iology: C s ur hy re P n t & R y e s m e o Anatomy and Physiology: Current a t r a c n h A ISSN: 2161-0940 Research Original Article A Mnemonic for Neck Triangles Abdulrauf Badr MI* Department of Surgery, King Faisal Specialist Hospital and Research Center Jeddah, Saudi Arabia ABSTRACT Anatomical Neck Triangles are imaginary to some extent. Their significance to many surgical specialties is invaluable. Among all basic Medical sciences subjects, Anatomy is most prone to be forgotten. None of the other subjects has the amount of mnemonics described or invented compared to it. Junior years students of Medical schools need to memorize anatomy with no or very little knowledge of its clinical applications. Relatively speaking, that can be quite cumbersome for them compared to those who are already involved in surgical residency training program, when anatomy knowledge is concerned. Surgeons who specialize or exclusively work in a selected anatomic region, they become experts and famous in their field and in that particular operation, mostly because they subconsciously become oriented to that region’s anatomy. However, those who work on various anatomical areas, frequently need to refresh their anatomy knowledge. Mnemonics, therefore are helpful for various level medical professionals. The Neck represents a relatively limited transition zone or passage of various tissue structures besides great vessels and nerves between Head, Chest and Upper extremities, very much like a three-way connector. Unless the concept of Neck triangles was there, it would have been very difficult to discuss or communicate about neck related procedures.
