  • Fascia and Spaces on the Neck: Myths and Reality Fascije I Prostori Vrata: Mit I Stvarnost
    Review/Pregledni članak Fascia and spaces on the neck: myths and reality Fascije i prostori vrata: mit i stvarnost Georg Feigl* Institute of Anatomy, Medical University of Graz, Graz, Austria Abstract. The ongoing discussion concerning the interpretation of existing or not existing fas- ciae on the neck needs a clarification and a valid terminology. Based on the dissection experi- ence of the last four decades and therefore of about 1000 cadavers, we investigated the fas- cias and spaces on the neck and compared it to the existing internationally used terminology and interpretations of textbooks and publications. All findings were documented by photog- raphy and the dissections performed on cadavers embalmed with Thiel´s method. Neglected fascias, such as the intercarotid fascia located between both carotid sheaths and passing be- hind the visceras or the Fascia cervicalis media as a fascia between the two omohyoid mus- cles, were dissected on each cadaver. The ”Danger space” therefore was limited by fibrous walls on four sides at level of the carotid triangle. Ventrally there was the intercarotid fascia, laterally the alar fascia, and dorsally the prevertebral fascia. The intercarotid fascia is a clear fibrous wall between the Danger Space and the ventrally located retropharyngeal space. Lat- ter space has a continuation to the pretracheal space which is ventrally limited by the middle cervical fascia. The existence of an intercarotid fascia is crucial for a correct interpretation of any bleeding or inflammation processes, because it changes the topography of the existing spaces such as the retropharyngeal or “Danger space” as well. As a consequence, the existing terminology should be discussed and needs to be adapted.

Phlegmonous infections may affect any region of the gastrointestinal tract. The stomach is the region most fre- quently involved; infections at other sites have been but rarely reported. Acute phlegmonous esophagitis is a very rare disease involving both the submucosal and muscular layers of the esophagus, with sparing of the mu- cosal layer. Acute esophageal esophagitis is commonly associated with acute phlegmonous gastritis; any asso- ciation with a deep neck infection is very rare. We report herein a case of acute phlegmonous esophagitis devel- oping as a complication of a retropharyngeal abscess treated via incision and drainage and prescription of long- term antibiotics. Thus, we did not perform esophageal surgery. We also review the relevant literature.

  • Histology of the Human Carotid Sheath Revisited
    Okajimas Folia Anat. Jpn., 84(2): 49–60, August, 2007 Histology of the Human Carotid Sheath Revisited By Shogo HAYASHI Department of Anatomy, Tokyo Medical University, 6-1-1 Shinjuku, Shinjuku-ku, Tokyo 160-8402, Japan – Received for Publication, March 26, 2007 – Key Words: Carotid sheath, Cervical fasciae, Prevertebral lamina, Alar fascia Summary: Using semiserial sections, we histologically observed the carotid sheath and adjacent structures in 8 sides of 5 cadavers. For description, we classified the carotid sheath into 2 parts or laminae: 1) a laminar ‘‘adventitia’’ enclosing each of the cervical great vessels; and 2) a ‘‘common sheath’’ outside the adventitia. Arterial and venous adventitial structures sometimes fused and provided a definite septum between the artery and vein. Contrasting with previous de- scriptions, the common sheath did not fuse with superficial or prethracheal lamina of the cervical fasciae, but often fused with visceral fascia to provide a thick plate. The common sheath as well as the prevertebral lamina of the cervical fasciae sometimes became interrupted or unclear, but the adventitia was consistently complete circular. The alar fascia was usually considered as one layer of the multilaminar structure behind the cervical viscera, but it was difficult to identify as a single proper lamina. The carotid sheath was thus not a dissection artifact, but a definite histological structure. However, interindividual and/or site-dependent variations were evident in thicknesses of the adventitia and common sheath. Consequently, the author proposed a model of the fascial arrangement around cervical great vessels that unexpectedly differs from most descriptions in textbooks. According to textbooks of human anatomy cal or anatomical dissection.
