    3D modeling and comparative analysis of the double arcus aorta case
    (2022) Avnioğlu, Seda; Dikici, Rümeysa; Etli, Mustafa
    We analyzed the double arch of a 51-year-old male patient who applied to the outpatient clinic with chest pain and shortness of breath and compared this rare case with the studies in the literature. Double aortic arch (DAA) is defned as a type of vascular ring malformation. The incidence of congenital heart diseases is less than 1%. DAA makes up 46–76% of all rings. We aimed to contribute to cardiac surgery by examining and modeling the diameters in the 2D and 3D images of the patient. For 3D modeling, an open-source software program ITK-SNAP 3.8 was used, which converts 2D images from MRI, CT, and ultrasound to 3D medical image volumes. CT images of the case taken from the SECTRA system of our hospital were uploaded to ITK-SNAP and segmentation was performed. With 3D modeling, a better understanding of the stenosis in the trachea and the double arch was achieved. The ascending aorta diameter was 30 mm. There were atherosclerotic changes in the aorta and its branches. The diameter of the right aortic arch was 22.2 mm, and the diameter of the left aortic arch was 14.5 mm. Trachea diameter was found to be 17 mm/13.2 mm. Esophageal diameter was 9.8 mm. The patient had no specifc complaints and no medical or surgical treatment was recommended because his physical examination was normal. We think that a better understanding of such cases in 3D may contribute to cardiovascular surgery

    The Prevalence of Accessory Ossicles, Sesamoid Bones, and Biphalangism of the Foot and Ankle: A Radiographic Study
    (2022) Candan, Büşra; Torun, Ebru; Dikici, Rümeysa
    Background: Accessory ossicles, sesamoid bones, and biphalangism of toes are the most common developmental variations of the foot. These bones may be associated with painful syndromes; however, their clinical importance is not well understood because the reported prevalence varies widely. Therefore, we aimed to investigate these variants in Turkish subjects. Methods: A total of 1651 foot radiographs were retrospectively assessed. Radiographs of feet were examined regarding the prevalence, sex, and bilaterality of accessory ossicles, sesamoid bones, and biphalangism in Turkish subjects. Results: Accessory ossicles (26.1%) and sesamoid bones (8%) were detected. The most common accessory ossicles were os trigonum (9.8%), accessory navicular bone (7.9%), and os peroneum (5.8%). Also, we detected os supratalare (0.48%), os calcanei secundarium (0.42%) os subfibulare (0.42%), os supranaviculare (0.36%), os vesalianum (0.30%), os subtibiale (0.24%), os intermetatarseum (0.12%), and os subcalcis (0.12%). We observed bipartite hallux sesamoid in 1.8% and interphalangeal sesamoid bone of the hallux in 0.7% of radiographs. Incidences of metatarsophalangeal sesamoid bones were found as 0.6%, 0.06%, 0.6%, and 5.8% in the second, third, fourth, and fifth digit, respectively. We observed biphalangeal toe in 0.5%, 1.7%, 3.5%, and 37.6% in the second, third, fourth, and fifth toe, respectively. Conclusion: This study is the first detailed report on the incidence of the most common variants of the foot and ankle in a wide-ranging patients' series in Turkish subjects. Our study's findings will contribute to reducing misdiagnosis. Clinical relevance: The results of this study may provide anatomical data that could help clinicians in the diagnosis and management of disorders that present with pain and discomfort in the feet. Knowledge of these variants is important to prevent misinterpreting them as fractures.
