It is most commonly seen in children but there are some reports of its prevalence in adults too. Cases of visible epiglottis seem to be unfamiliar among dental professionals. In this report, we have attempted to present this anatomical variant of epiglottis in the field of dentistry by describing a case of an 8-year-old girl who presented to the department of pediatric dentistry for normal dental check-up unaware of the existence of the visible epiglottis.

The topographic anatomy access of the middle ear was described with special focus to the cochlear implant procedure. It was conducted in an attempt to elucidate factors that would ultimately determine the ease of insertion of an electrode array. METHODS: Fifteen right and 12 left temporal bones were dissected under the surgical microscope. After performing appropriate incisions, the distances between the stapedius muscle tendon, incus long crus and the cochleostomy were measured with the help of a digital microscope (Dino-Lite plus(®)). RESULTS: After performing statistical analysis, we found that strong relationship exists in the distances between the measured anatomical landmarks. CONCLUSION: Microscopic anatomical studies of the temporal bone are essential to safely perform surgical intervention within the middle ear. The results shows that morphometric data concerning different anatomi...
