Morphometric parameters of the larynx as: length (anterolateral parameter), width (transverse parameter) and thickness (anteroposterior parameter) were determined. These parameters determine the size and shape of the larynx. The repciprocal relation parameters which determinate size of the larynx in infants and the body length are in high correlation. Therefore, the equation for calculating the size of the larynx out of the body heght was founded. Histologic characteristics of the laryngeal cartilage are constant. They indicate evident changes, that are the basis for approximate determination of a child's age. Materials and Methods: The organs of the infants were taken from pathoanatomical autopsies. None had changes in the respiratory system. The major methods of the investigatio were anatomical macrodissection, morphological and histologic analysis and statistics. Results: The average body length in infants was 540 ± 20 mm (54 ± 2cm) and the average larynx length was 11.9± 0.3 mm. There was a correlation between these parameters p ‹ 0.01 (r = 0.75). The average value of the width of the larynx in infants was 17.7 ± 0.5 mm. The width of the larynx was in correlation with the body length p ‹ 0.01 (r = 0.79). The average value of the thickness of the larynx was 12.6 ± 0.4 mm. This parameter was correlated with the body length p < 0.01 (r = 0.82). Histological analyses results of our investigation, cartilage of the larynx in infants, show that hyalin structure is the result of age changes. Conclusion: Quantitative anatomical knowledge on the larynx in the pediatric population are necessary for the clinical orientation, particularly for choosing a suitable endotracheal tube. Size of the larynx in prematures, neonates and small children, constantly follows the external body dimensions, particularly the body height, that is confirmed by the correlation factor in its highest value. They indicate evident changes, that are the basis for approximate determination of a child's age. Hyalin structure is in correlation to the children's age.

Aims of this research were to document the morphological anatomy of the posterior circulation along with variations in the Bosnian population, in patients with or without aneurysm. Measurements of the outer diameters of the vertebral artery, basilar artery and posterior cerebral artery were taken. The second aim was to determine the possible relationship between diameters of the area with subsequent aneurysm formation. Material and Methods: The study involved 60 consecutive patients, adults of both sexes, treated in the UKC Tuzla.The patients were divided into two groups. One group consisted of the patients without aneurysm of basilar artery, and the other group of patients with aneurysm. All the 60 patients were treated by means of MRI angiography. Results: The mean diameter of the vertebral artery was 2,43 mm; 3.61 mm on the right and 2,83 mm; 3,94 mm on the left. The diameter of the basilar artery varied from 3, 8 mm; 3, 43 mm. The diameter of the posterior cerebral arteries 2, 5 mm; 2,52 mm on the right and 2,46 mm; 2,62 mm on the left. Conclusions: We have documented the various morphometry variations as well as the differences of the anatomy in this area in Bosnian population as compared to the medicine literature.

Aim: to investigate the mutual relation of the initial parts of the internal carotid artery and the external carotid artery, as well as the height of crossing of these blood vessels. Patients and methods: we evaluated 50 patients referred to diagnostic center of the PZU "Medicom" Zenica, by using of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the neck. Results: External carotid artery is placed medially and goes to the frontal side of the internal carotid artery in 90% cases. In 7% of cases the right internal carotid artery is placed laterally from the internal carotid artery. Divergent position, where the internal carotid artery (medially) and the external carotid artery go away from each other, was found in 1% of cases. We also found that the internal carotid artery and external carotid artery cross approximately 3.04 cm above the bifurcation (at right 3.05 cm and at left 3.12 cm) and the height of the crossing varies from 1.3 cm to 4.2 cm (at right 1.3 cm to 4.2 cm, and at left 1.5 cm to 4.1 cm). The height of crossing is symmetric in 18% of cases. Reversal of the position of the external and internal carotid arteries was found in 7% cases. Conclusion: The possibility of an inversed disposition of the internal and external carotid arteries must be held in mind when performing arterial ligatures in the carotid triangle, to avoid damage to the internal carotid artery or haemorrhagic accidents.

The investigations were carried out on 50 human preparations of adults of both sexes, unintentional choice. The position and relation between intestinum caecum and appendix vermiformis were determined by forensic medical and pathoanatomical autopsy. Place of origin of appendix vermiformis, from wall of intestinum caecum is determined by anatomical dissection. Intestinum caecum has a variable shape and it occurs in two forms: conical, which dominates (56%) and square (44%). It has constant position in fossa iliaca dextra in 100% of 50 investigated cases. Appendix vermiformis is fully variable organ as for position and the place of origin from the wall of intestinum caecum. Dominantly (52%) it has rising position, and two subtypes are present: retrocecal (more expressed-38%) related to the retrocolic subtype (14%). Very frequent position of appendix vermiformis is a falling one (32%), in wh...

It has been carried out on 33 pairs of the human adult kidneys of both sex, randomly chosen. It has determined size, width and thickness of the kidney. The kidneys are very variable organs in the size and in the shape. Reduced largeness of the kidney and enlarged kidney are forms of variations of size. Reduced largeness of the left kidney has been found in 18.18%, and enlarged one in 24.24%. Reduced largeness of the right kidney has been found in 24.24% and enlarged one in 21.21%. Two types of the shape were presented: fetal lobularness and lobarnes of the kidney. The shape of left kidney was variable in 39.39%, fetal lobularness was present in 33.33%, and lobarness in 6.06%. The shape of right kidney was variable in 30.30%, foetal lobularness was present in 27.27%, and lobarness in 3.03%. All parameters that determine the size of kidneys show statistically high positive correlation. I...

To describe the intrahepatic bile duct transposition (anatomical variation occurring in intrahepatic ducts) and to determine the frequency of this variation.Material and Methods. The researches were performed randomly on 100 livers of adults, both sexes. Main research methods were anatomical macrodissection. As a criterion for determination of variations in some parts of bile tree, we used the classification of Segmentatio hepatis according to Couinaud (1957) according to Terminologia Anatomica, Thieme Stuugart: Federative Committee on Anatomical Terminology, 1988.Results. Intrahepatic transposition of bile ducts was found in two cases (2%), out of total examined cases (100): right-left transposition (right segmental bile duct, originating from the segment VIII, joins the left liver duct-ductus hepaticus sinister) and left-right intrahepatic transposition (left segmental bile duct originating from the segment IV ends in right liver duct-ductus hepaticus dexter).Conclusion...

Aim: to investigate the mutual relation of the initial parts of the internal carotid artery and the external carotid artery, as well as the height of crossing of these blood vessels. Patients and methods: we evaluated 50 patients referred to diagnostic center of the PZU "Medicom" Zenica, by using of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the neck. Results: External carotid artery is placed medially and goes to the frontal side of the internal carotid artery in 90% cases. In 7% of cases the right internal carotid artery is placed laterally from the internal carotid artery. Divergent position, where the internal carotid artery (medially) and the external carotid artery go away from each other, was found in 1% of cases. We also found that the internal carotid artery and external carotid artery cross approximately 3.04 cm above the bifurcation (at right 3.05 cm and at left 3.12 cm) and the height of the crossing varies from 1.3 cm to 4.2 cm (at right 1.3 cm to 4.2 cm, and at left 1.5 cm to 4.1 cm). The height of crossing is symmetric in 18% of cases. Reversal of the position of the external and internal carotid arteries was found in 7% cases. Conclusion: The possibility of an inversed disposition of the internal and external carotid arteries must be held in mind when performing arterial ligatures in the carotid triangle, to avoid damage to the internal carotid artery or haemorrhagic accidents.

Aims of this research were to document the morphological anatomy of the posterior circulation along with variations in the Bosnian population, in patients with or without aneurysm. Measurements of the outer diameters of the vertebral artery, basilar artery and posterior cerebral artery were taken. The second aim was to determine the possible relationship between diameters of the area with subsequent aneurysm formation. Material and Methods: The study involved 60 consecutive patients, adults of both sexes, treated in the UKC Tuzla.The patients were divided into two groups. One group consisted of the patients without aneurysm of basilar artery, and the other group of patients with aneurysm. All the 60 patients were treated by means of MRI angiography. Results: The mean diameter of the vertebral artery was 2,43 mm; 3.61 mm on the right and 2,83 mm; 3,94 mm on the left. The diameter of the basilar artery varied from 3, 8 mm; 3, 43 mm. The diameter of the posterior cerebral arteries 2, 5 mm; 2,52 mm on the right and 2,46 mm; 2,62 mm on the left. Conclusions: We have documented the various morphometry variations as well as the differences of the anatomy in this area in Bosnian population as compared to the medicine literature.
