| The proposed aim of the study was to elucidate the variations of the lung fissures and to correlate their importance in clinics. The study was conducted on 48 lung specimens, 30 right and 18 left, obtained from the cadavers of South Indian origin. Among the right-sided lungs, 2 specimens showed absence of horizontal fissure, and the remaining 25 showed incomplete horizontal fissure. Oblique fissure was incomplete in 15 lungs and one lung showed absence of oblique fissure. An accessory fissure was observed in 4 lungs. Among the left sided lungs, the oblique fissure was incomplete in 7 lungs. The presence of an accessory fissure was found in 5 lungs. With the development of radiological and endoscopic techniques and the advancement of pulmonary surgery, the... |

| The axillary arch can be described as an anomalous muscular slip of latissimus dorsi muscle. In this paper, a rare case of bilateral axillary arch is reported during routine dissection of the axillary region of a 57-year old male cadaver. On both sides, the axillary arch muscle took origin from latissimus dorsi and teres major, and passed upwards through the posterior cord of the brachial plexus, but posterior to the bulk of axillary neurovascular bundle. It then split into two slips: the medial slip was inserted into the root of the coracoid process, while the lateral slip which was intracapsular, was attached to the lesser tubercle, above the attachment of subscapularis. The presence of the muscle has important clinical implications, and the position,... |
