Öğe Distal femur morphometry: a gender and bilateral comparative study using magnetic resonance imaging(SPRINGER FRANCE, 2005) Murshed, KA; Cicekcibasi, AE; Karabacakoglu, A; Seker, M; Ziylan, TAmong the anthropometric factors to be considered, anatomic differences in the distal femur and intercondylar notch have been implicated as a cause of the different rates of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) rupture between men and women; therefore, in this study our aim was to evaluate a number of morphometric measurements in the distal part of the femur. Two hundred knee MRI examinations were analyzed: 56 male right, 44 male left, 42 female right and 58 female left. Measurements of the intercondylar height (ICH), intercondylar width (ICW), medial condylar width (MCW), lateral condylar width (LCW) and epicondylar width (EW) were obtained. The notch shape index (NSI) was also calculated. Statistical analysis for comparisons was done by Students t-test. Correlations between the parameters studied were calculated by Pearson correlation coefficients. Significant bilateral differences were not found (p > 0.05). In all measurements, males showed significantly greater values than females (p < 0.001). No difference was seen in the NSI between males and females (p > 0.05). Conversely a significant association was obtained between age and all parameters. We conclude that the results of this study may be useful for anatomic evaluation of the distal femur region prior to orthopaedic operations.Öğe An investigation of non-depolarizing muscle relaxants on embryonic development in cultured rat embryos(LIPPINCOTT WILLIAMS & WILKINS, 2004) Karabulut, AK; Reisli, R; Uysal, II; Celik, JB; Ziylan, TBackground and objective: We have investigated the toxic and teratogenic effects of certain non-depolarizing muscle relaxants on embryonic development in cultured rat embryos. Methods: Rat embryos of 9.5 days were explanted and cultured in vitro for 48 h in rat serum. Whole rat serum was used as a culture medium for the control group while different concentrations of atracurium, cis-atracurium, rocuronium and mivacurium were added to rat serum for the experimental groups. Dose-dependent effects of these agents on embryonic developmental parameters were compared using morphological and biochemical methods. Each embryo was evaluated for the presence of any malformations. Results: When compared to the control embryos, the muscle relaxants significantly decreased all growth and developmental parameters dose dependently with an increase in overall dismorphology. Among these malformations, maxillary deformity was most frequently observed. These effects were observed in much lower doses with atracurium and cis-atracurium compared to those with rocuronium and mivacutium. Conclusions: Our results suggest that non-depolarizing muscle relaxants cause dose-dependent toxicity on rat embryos at concentrations much greater than those in clinical practice. Although, these agents seems to have a low potential for causing developmental toxicity during organogenesis, because of the lower toxic effects observed with rocuronium and mivacurium, these agents may be preferred when recurrent administrations are necessary for parturients.Öğe An investigation of the origin, location and variations of the renal arteries in human fetuses and their clinical relevance(URBAN & FISCHER VERLAG, 2005) Cicekcibasi, AE; Ziylan, T; Salbacak, A; Seker, M; Buyukmumcu, M; Tuncer, IWe investigated the origin, localizations and anatomic variations of the renal artery (RA) in human fetuses with the aim of determining the distribution of these variations according to lateralization and gender. In total, 90 fetuses of spontaneous abortion (45 mates, 45 females) with no congenital malformations were included to the study. The abdominal aorta and its branches were dissected after latex solution colored with red ink had been injected into the vessels from the thoracic aorta. In all., 180 RA dissections were performed bilaterally in 90 cases and the anatomic variations were photographed. Right and left RAs were found to originate from the following levels according to the columna vertebratis, respectively: 3.8% and 1.9% tower T-12, 67.3% and 25.0% upper L-1, 9.6% and 28.8% mid L-1, 15.3% and 40.3 lower L-1, 3.8% and 3.8% upper 1/3 part of L-2 vertebra. The right RA originated from the lateral part and anterolateral wall of the abdominal aorta in 73.0% and 26.9% of cases white the lateral. and anterolateral watt origin percentages of left RA were 90.3% and 9.6%, respectively. The origin site of the right RA from the abdominal aorta was superior to, at the same level with, and inferior to that of the left RA in 53.8%, 34.6% and 11.5% of the cases, respectively. There were no variations in 75% of the cases whereas the remaining 25% had several variation patterns. The presented morphological results are as follows: A single hilar artery in 75% of the cases, double hilar arteries in 11.1%, an inferior polar artery in 10.5%, and a superior polar artery in 3.3% of specimens studied. Anatomical variations were observed more frequently among mate fetuses and on the right side. Knowledge of RA variations is important for surgeons in performing many procedures and may help to avoid clinical. complications, especially, during radiological examination and/or surgical approaches in the abdominal. region.

Such a procedure could be used to treat patients with high cervical vascular lesions and those with tumors of the infratemporal fossa invading the high cervical ICA. After a frontotemporal craniotomy, the foramen spinosum and foramen ovale were exposed extradurally. Immediately posterior to the foramen ovale and medial to the foramen spinosum, the petrous portion of the ICA was exposed with a diamond-tipped drill. The MMA was lifted from its groove, and a sufficient length was transected to perform a bypass with the petrous ICA medially. The mean width of the MMA at the site of anastomosis was 2.3 +/- 0.35 mm. The mean length of MMA from the foramen spinosum to the site of the anastomosis was 9.6 +/- 1.7 mm. Based on these measurements, width and length of MMA appear to be sufficient for a bypass with petrous ICA.Öğe Radial artery graft for bypass of the maxillary to proximal posterior cerebral artery: An anatomical and technical study(TAYLOR & FRANCIS AS, 2004) Ulku, CH; Ustun, ME; Buyukmumcu, M; Cicekcibasi, AE; Ziylan, TObjective-To examine the use of a radial artery graft for bypass of the maxillary artery (MA) to proximal posterior cerebral artery (PCA) as an alternative to the external carotid artery (ECA) to PCA anastomosis used in posterior circulation bypass surgery. Materials and Methods-The method was applied to five adult cadaver sides bilaterally. The MA was easily found 1-2 cm beneath the infratemporal crest after a frontotemporal craniotomy and a zygomatic arch osteotomy. Extradurally, 2-3 cm posterolateral to the foramen rotundum, a hole was drilled in the sphenoid bone with a 4-mm tipped drill. After sylvian fissure, the interpedincular and ambient cisternae were opened and the P2 segment of the PCA appeared. The graft was passed through the hole and dura to reach the P2 segment. Proximal to the infraorbital artery branch, the MA was freed from the surrounding tissue and transected. The proximal side of the radial artery graft was anastomosed end-to-end with the MA and the distal side was anastomosed end-to-side with the P2 segment of the PCA. Results-The average diameter of the MA proximal to the infraorbital artery branch was 2.6+/-0.3 mm. The average diameter of the P2 was 2.2+/-0.2 mm. The average length of the graft was 47+/-5.2 mm. Conclusion-As MA to proximal PCA bypass uses a short radial graft and as the calibers of the MA and PCA are >2 mm such a bypass may provide sufficient blood flow and represents a reasonable alternative to "ECA to PCA'' bypass.
