Variation of blood vessels in the cranial-cervical legion

Abstract

The blood vessels in the head and neck have several main roots for supplying blood to the brain and returning of blood to the heart. It was well known that each artery and vein in the head and neck has its variation. The variation of the vessels sometimes gives rise to un-expectable findings, which are not described in the textbook. In this study we will show the morphological variations observed at routine autopsy cases and some forensic pathological findings caused by those variations.
