    Left Ventricular Mass in Normal Children and its Correlation with Weight, Height and Body Surface Area
    (Soc Chilena Anatomia, 2011) Kervancioglu, Piraye; Kervancioglu, Mehmet; Tuncer, M. Cudi; Hatipoglu, E. Savas
    Echocardiographic measurement of left ventricular mass (LVM) is being used for the diagnosis of left ventricular hypertrophy in children with various cardiovascular diseases. The purposes of this study was to establish normal values of LVM according to weight, height and body surface area (BSA) in children and to determine the sex differences. We evaluated 208 children (143 males and 65 females), aged 1 day to 14 years who had no cardiovascular disease. The end-diastolic left ventricular internal dimension (LVIDd), end-diastolic left ventricular posterior wall thickness (LVPWd) and end-diastolic interventricular septum (IVSd) values were determined by M-mode echocardiographic examination. By using these values, left ventricular mass was calculated. The difference between LVIDd, LVPWd and LVM values of boys and girls were not statistically significant. We observed statistically significant differences between the sexes relative to IVSd and LVM/BSA values. The left ventricular mass and its components presented a good correlation with age, weight, height and BSA. The study let us know the lower and upper limits of cardiac dimensions and LVM obtained by echocardiography in normal Turkish children according to BSA. Also, as the LVM/BSA values show gender difference in children, sex should be taken in consideration while evaluating the left ventricular hypertrophy.

    An unusual variation of the omohyoid muscle and review of literature
    (Elsevier Gmbh, Urban & Fischer Verlag, 2006) Hatipoglu, Eyup Savas; Kervancioglu, Piraye; Tuncer, Mehmet Cudi
    The omohyoid muscle is important in radical neck dissection, as it is a landmark for this operation. Because it divides the anterior and posterior cervical triangles into smaller triangles and its particular relationship to the large cervical. vessels, the presence of an anatomical variation of the omohyoid muscle is important. An unfamiliar muscle was found in the left anterior cervical region of a 57-year-old male cadaver. It was attached at its caudal end to the clavicle and coursed upward to the hyoid bone and a normal omohyoid muscle with its intermediate tendon was lateral to this muscle. Both the muscles joined together near the hyoid bone and both muscles attached to the hyoid bone with the same tendon. According to its origin and insertion, the unfamiliar muscle was considered to be the cleido-hyoideus muscle. In our case report, a variant of infrahyoid muscles is presented. Such an association constitutes an exceedingly rare condition. (c) 2006 Elsevier GmbH. All rights reserved.
