“…Present study observed accessory FT in 14.72% cases which goes well with Akhtar et al [13] and Mishra et al [15] as given in table 2. Mishra et al [15] studied the FT in 220 dried typical cervical vertebrae and observed accessory FT 14.09% vertebrae.…”

Background: Cervical vertebrae have a typical feature that is presence of foramen bilaterally in their transverse process which is named as foramen transversarium through it passes vertebral artery, vertebral vein and sympathetic plexus of nerves. Among these cervical vertebrae typical cervical vertebrae have a typical bifid spine along with foramen transversarium. Deformation and variations of this foramen may affect the anatomical course of vascular and neural structures, and consequently may cause pathological conditions.

“…Different terminologies were used by many authors that reported varying number, shape and laterality of FT (Akhtar et al, 2015;Dofe et al;Gujar et al, 2015;Sabnis;Sangari et al, 2015;Esakkiammal & Chauhan, 2016;Molinet et al, 2017). Studies have displayed three complete FT present on a vertebra, with one on one side and two on the other-these have been termed unilateral complete double (accessory) FT (Murlimanju et al, 2011;Karau & Odula;Ramachandran et al;Yadav et al, 2014;Akhtar et al;Sangari et al;Esakkiammal & Chauhan;Molinet et al). Murlimanju et al and Rathnakar et al (2013) also found triple FT unilaterally on a typical cervical vertebra.…”

SHEIK ABDUL, R.; LAZARUS, L.; RENNIE, C. & SATYAPAL, K. S. The foramen transversarium of typical and atypical cervical vertebrae: morphology and morphometry. SUMMARY:The seven cervical vertebrae found in the human body are classified into typical and atypical vertebrae. Their transverse processes contain foramen transversarium (FT) and traditionally there is one foramen present on each side, of similar size. However, variations of this foramen regarding its shape, size, number, laterality, location and osteometric characteristics have been documented in the literature. This morphological and morphometric study was conducted on 126 cervical vertebrae (82 typical and 44 atypical) obtained from the osteological bank at the University of Kwa-Zulu Natal to produce a database which may serve as a useful guideline to medical personnel. There were variations observed regarding shape, number of FT, laterality and position, which have not previously been reported. The most types of variations were evident in the typical cervical vertebrae, then secondly, the seventh cervical vertebrae. The axis vertebrae did not display any accessory FT or variations.

“…Servikal vertebralar processus transversus'larında bulunan FT sayesinde diğer vertebralardan ayrılırlar [10]. FT'un boyutları ile AV'in boyutları arasında pozitif korelasyon mevcuttur, bu durum AV'den geçen kan akımı miktarını etkiler [1,2,11].…”

Bu çalışmanın amacı kuru kemik servikal vertebralarda aksesuar FT insidansını araştırmaktır. Gereç ve yöntem: Dokuz Eylül Üniversitesi Tıp Fakültesi Anatomi Anabilim Dalı Laboratuvar'ına ait 81(seksenbir) adet yaş ve cinsiyetleri bilinmeyen kuru kemik servikal vertebra incelendi.Tüm servikal vertebralar aksesuar FT varlığı açısından makroskopik olarak değerlendirildi. Bulgular:Servikal vertebraların 10'unda (%12.34) aksesuar FT saptandı.Bunlardan 2'sinde (%2.47) çift taraflı,8'inde (%9.87) tek taraflı aksesuar FT olduğu gözlendi. Tek taraflı olanların 6'sı (%75) sağda, 2'si (%25) solda gözlendi. Sonuç:Bu varyasyonların bilinmesi bu bölgeye yapılacak cerrahi girişimlerde hem ameliyat yöntemini seçmede hem de postoperatif komplikasyonların gelişmesini önlemede cerrahlar için önemlidir.
