Variations of ramification of external carotid artery – common trunks of collateral branches

This research involved 50 patients processed in PZU, »Medicom« Zenica, by the method of MRI-angiography when performingMR of the neck. The way of ramification of the a. carotis externae, that is described in classical anatomy textbooks, where its branches separate as individual branches, is found in 76,6% to 81%, according to the data from the literature available. These data are confirmed by our researches, where presence of this ramification type was found in 84% of the total number of technically accurate MRI angiograms (91 angiogram). In 16% of cases, the branches of a. carotis externae originate as common trunks, or have unusual place of origin (a. carotis communis). A. thyroidea superior in 1,09% originates as common trunk with a. lingualis, but in three cases (3,33%) it originates as common trunk with a. lingualis

Martin-gruber Anastomosis and Transposition in Cubital Tunnel

This describes the indivisible anastomosis of the main stem of median nerve with ulnar nerve through cubital tunnel followed by the anomaly of ulnar artery that appears as superficial ulnar artery. Both anomalies are found during the anatomical dissection of a grown-up male cadaver, on his right arm. Such case is very rare as, in the literature available to us, it has not been described

Hronični epiduralni hematom dijagnosticiran kao meningeom

U radu je prezentiran rijedak slučaj organiziranog hroničnog epiduralnog hematoma koji je imitirao meningeom. Pacijent je primljen na Službu za neurologiju Kantonalne bolnice u Zenici zbog gubitka svijesti i desnostrane hemipareze. Nativna kompjuterizirana tomograija (CT) pokazala je ekspanzivni intrakranijalni proces lijevoparijetalno, koji je radiološki dijagnosticiran kao meningeom. Intraoperativno ustanovljena je linearna fraktura lobanje i organizirani hronični epiduralni hematom
