Selfie-related injuries and deaths have increased in the past years. Particularly, teenagers and young adults are at high risk for selfie-related traumas and deaths; therefore, drastic measures should be taken to reduce their incidence.

Science has reached its modern level with the developments it has shown in the history process. Each scientific progress is based on observations and ideas developed by previous researchers. Anatomy has maintained its importance throughout history as the most fundamental and essential component of medical science. Centuries ago, Hippocrates emphasized this importance with his that quote: "The nature of the body is the beginning of the medical science" [1]. Although the first written evidence of the history of ancient medicine was found in the process from Egyptian Papyrus (3000-2500 BCE) up to Andreas Vesalius of Brussels (1514-1564), founder of the modern human Anatomy; a lot more written sources on Anatomy have been provided in the process from Vesalius up to the present and thus massive information was obtained [2,3]. The press of sheets introduced by Vesalius in 1538 on loose leaves was considered as a direct descendant of the ancient manuscript [4]. The manuscripts of Leonardo da Vinci (1452-1519), as one of the earliest contributors to the history of anatomy and, accordingly, medical studies, were published in the form of facsimile edition between 1898-1916 and later for conservation purposes, in the early 1970s, all of his drawings were edited together with relevant notes and published in 1979 [5]. Information obtained through dissections of cadaver has been the most important and fundamental source for the publication of written sources. In addition to dissection studies that still continue to be relevant, clarification of researches by developing of radiological methods over time and increase of rat and laboratory experiments provided more information in the field of anatomy and thus directing the clinic.
