چکیده
Variant muscles while of fundamental concern to the anatomists have primarily of academic interest to the surgeon. Muscular variations are quite common and frequently seen in the course of routine dissection of human body. The variations in the muscles may be conveniently grouped as progressive, retrogressive and atavistic [1]. The manner in which a disappeared muscle can put in an abrupt appearance as a complete entity suggests that muscles have a morphological individuality akin to that of skeletal elements. This phenomenon is of great significance to the comparative anatomist in his search for evidence bearing on the phylogenetic history of any particular species [1].

Bilateral Tensor Fasciae Suralis Muscles in a Cadaver with Unilateral Accessory Flexor Digitorum Longus Muscle
Muscle variants are routinely encountered in the dissection laboratory and in clinical practice and therefore anatomists and clinicians need to be aware of their existence. Here we describe two different accessory muscles identified while performing educational dissection of a 51-year-old male cadaver. Tensor fasciae suralis, a rare muscle variant, was identified bilaterally and accessory flexo...
متن کاملVersatility of Pedicled Tensor Fascia Lata Flap in Two Different Challenging Anatomical Defects
Background: The tensor fascia lata is a versatile flap with many uses in reconstructive plastic surgery. As a pedicled flap, its reach to the lower abdomen and groinmade it an attractive option for reconstructing soft tissue defects after tumour ablation. We present two cases with challenging anatomical reconstruction after tumour ablation using pedicled TFL flap. A pedicled tensor fascia lata ...
متن کاملExtended double pedicle free tensor fascia latae myocutaneous flap for abdominal wall reconstruction.
Extensive full thickness anterior abdominal wall defects pose a difficult challenge to the reconstructive surgeon. The objectives of reconstruction are the support of the intra-abdominal structures in order to preserve the functional integrity and achieve an aesthetically-acceptable appearance. Autologous tissues are versatile and provide the best reconstructive option in this type of defects. ...
متن کاملInfluence of electrical stimulation on hip joint adductor muscle activity during maximum effort
[Purpose] This study investigated whether hip adductor activity was influenced by electrical stimulation of the tensor fascia lata muscle. [Subjects and Methods] The subjects were 16 nondisabled males. Each subject was asked to adduct the hip joint with maximum effort. The electromyogram of the adductor longus was recorded under two experimental conditions, with and without electrical stimulati...
متن کاملManagement of Anterior Abdominal Wall Defect Using a Pedicled Tensor Fascia Lata Flap: A Case Report
Degloving injuries to anterior abdominal wall are rare due to the mechanism of injury. Pedicled tensor fascia lata is known to be a versatile flap with ability to reach the lower anterior abdomen. A 34-year-old man who was involved in a road traffic accident presented with degloving injury and defect at the left inguinal region, sigmoid colon injury, and scrotal bruises. At investigation, he wa...
