Анатомо-топографические особенности бугорка Цукеркандля щитовидной железы у взрослого человека

Abstract

Abstract Background: To define anatomic on topographic features of the Zuckercandl tubercle of the thyroid gland in an adult. Material and methods: due to macro-microscopic method of 25 neck organocomplexes of deceased people (48-80 years old) of both sexes the Zuckercandl tubercle was examined. Results: The frequency of the Zuckerkandl tubercle presence and its morphometric characteristics were revealed. Features of topographic relationships of the inferior laryngeal nerve of the Zuckerkandl tubercle was determined. Conclusion: considering the frequency of presence (88% of observations) of the Zuckerkandl tubercle of the thyroid gland in an adult and the variability of its size on both sides of the organ, practitioners should pay differentiate the Zuckerkandl tubercle from pathological thyroid formations during diagnostic manipulations on neck organs.
