The supraventricular crest [17] is a third-order fleshy trabecula attached to the anterior wall of theright ventricle along its entire length, and it is located between the right atrioventricular ostium and theostium of the pulmonary trunk [15]. Although it is well known, Anderson et al. [4] reviewed the specializedliterature and demonstrated that there were at least four different structures in the right ventriclethat also received this name...

The African giant rat (Cricetomys ganbianus, Waterhouse) (AGR) is a representative of the Muridaefamily [11], which constitutes a group of the Rodentia order of mammals. The AGR is also knownas the Giambian rat, fancy rat, or comic rat. They are found in Central and West African countries, including Nigeria [1, 6]. The biggest economic impactof the AGR is that they are a good source of meat...

The term annulus fibrous is still used in anatomical and clinical terminology but  does not exist in anatomical nomenclature. This structure is proposed as an  anatomical substrate for circus movement of excitation...

The anatomy of the tricuspid valvar complex is highly sophisticated [13, 18–20], but understanding  of it may be helpful in the practice of cardiac surgery, especially in the partial transfer of leaflets of the tricuspid valve for mitral valve repairs [1, 2, 4]. The right atrioventricular valve region may be involved in severe cardiac malformations [5, 7–11, 15...

The use of muscle patches, myocutaneous, osteomuscular and even muscle fascia in reconstructive surgery of the head, neck and limbs is becoming increasingly frequent. The, the subscapular arterial tree may also be used as a source of microvascular grafts to replace damaged or diseased portions of arteries, particularly in the hand and forearm [10]. The development of reparative surgery has demanded more detailed anatomical knowledge of the blood supply ...

Knowledge of the anatomy of the veins in the anterolateral cervical region, particularly the thyroid veins, is important because of its application in thyroid [5], parathyroid and laryngeal surgery, in the transposition of myocutaneous flaps for reconstructions [13] and, particularly, in tracheostomies [2, 4, 9]...

Although the septomarginal trabecula is a well-known anatomical structure, there continue to be different ways of studying it. In this study, we dissected the muscle bundles that form it, and this has enabled us to present a new classification based on the origin, path, and termination of these bundles...

The aim of the present study was to evaluate the morphology and intermediate filaments cytokeratin, desmin and vimentin expression in the kidneys of the polar fox (Alopex lagopus)...
