We describe a previously unreported case of accessory mental foramen located in the lingual cortical bone of the...

متن کاملAn Anatomical Variation of Extensor Indicis Muscle: A Case Report
The extensor indicis is a narrow, elongated skeletal muscle in the deep layer of the dorsal forearm that originates from the one third of the distal posterior surface of the shaft of ulna below the origin of the extensor pollicis longos and interosseous membrane. It runs through the fourth tendon compartment with the extensor digitorum under the extensor retinaculum. The extensor indicis joins ...
