Abstract

Variations of the muscles in the infrahyoid region assume clinical significance during diagnostic and surgical procedures in the region of neck. Accessory muscles are rare anatomical variants which may have clinical implications. The present case reports the existence of an accessory muscle, the cleidohyoid. The muscle was unilaterally observed arising from the upper surface of the middle of the clavicle and inserting into the hyoid bone. The occurrence of this muscle in the densely packed region as in the neck may have functional, diagnostic, surgical and pathological implications.

Cleidohyoideus Accessorius - Boyun Bölgesinde İlave İnfrahyoid Kası

Abstract

İnfrahiyoid bölgedeki çeşitli kaslar boyun bölgesi hastalıklarının teşhisinde ve cerrahi operasyonlarında klinik açıdan önemli oldugu düşünülür. Yardımcı kaslar, klinik etkileri olabilecek nadir görülen anatomik varyantlardır. Bu vaka değerlendirmesinde cleidohyoid yardımcı kasından bahsedilmektedir. Bu kas, köprücük kemiginin orta ust yuzeyiden ortaya çıkan ve hyoid kemige yerleşmiş şekilde tek taraflı olarak gözlemlenmiştir. Boyunda yogun biçimde paketlenmiş bölgede ortaya çıkan bu kas, fonksiyonel olabildiği gibi teşhis cerrahi ve patholojik açıdan da önemli olabilir.
