Abstract (2. Language): 
Objectives: The objective of this study was to find out vascular variations in the face and neck region. Materials and Methods: 75 cadavers of both sexes have been used in the current study. Head and neck dissections of these cadavers were done in the department of anatomy, Kasturba Medical College and Melaka Manipal Medical College, Manipal. Results: Out of 75 cadavers, we observed five variations in four different cadavers, the findings include; facial vein continuing as external jugular vein after receiving retromandibular and submental veins, low bifurcation of common carotid artery and anomalous branching of external carotid artery, lateral position of external carotid artery, common facial vein draining into external jugular vein, anomalous formation of external jugular vein. Conclusion: A sound anatomic knowledge of vessels of head and neck is essential. Variations of the superficial venous system and knowledge of variations of the arteries and their branches and their recognition during diagnostic imaging are important for vascular surgical procedures. Since the blood vessels of the head and neck region have immense surgical and diagnostic importance, this study was worthwhile. ©2008,Firat University, Medical Faculty

Abstract (Original Language): 
Amaç: Bu çalışmanın amacı yüz ve boyundaki vasküler varyasyonları ortaya çıkarmaktır Gereç ve Yöntem: Bu çalışmada her iki cinsiyetten 75 kadavra kullanıldı. Bu kadavraların baş ve boyun disseksiyonları Kasturba Medical College ve Melaka Manipal Medical College anatomi bölümleri tarafından yapıldı. Bulgular: 75 kadavranın tamamı incelendiğinde 4 farklı kadavrada 5 varyasyona rastlandı. Bulgular şunları içeriyordu; V. facialis, v.retromandibularis ve v.submentalisi verdikten sonra v.jugularis externa olarak devam ediyordu. Normal pozisyonun daha aşağısında yerleşimli bifurkasyo karotidis ve a.carotis externa nın anormal dallanması. Lateral yerleşimli a.carotis externa. V.jugularis externaya dökülen birleşik facial ven, v.jugularis externanın anormal yapısı. Sonuç: Baş ve boynun damarların anatomisi iyi bir şekilde bilinmesi gereklidir. Superficial venöz sistem varyasyonları ile arterlerin ve onların dallanmalarının varyasyonlarının bilgileri ve bunların tanısal görüntülenmesi damar cerrahisi işlemleri sırasında önemlidir. Baş ve boyun bölgesinin kan damarları tanı ve cerrahi açısından oldukça önemli olduğundan bu çalışma kayda değerdir. ©2008, Fırat Üniversitesi, Tıp Fakültesi
