| Summary: | Variations of skeletopic position of artery carotis communis bifurcations were described in the study, which were diagnosed by the method of magnetic angiography during magnetic resonancy examination of the neck. Importance of recognition of variable anatomy of carotide blood vessels, caused by frequent surgery operations in the region, was emphasized. Examinations were done in 50 patients. Skeletopic position of bifurcation varied from the second to fifth cervical vertebra. The dominant position of bifurcation was at the level of the third cervical vertebra (72.72%) and the lowest percentage was at the level of the fifth cervical vertebra in 5.05 % cases. The difference in bifurcation level between the right and left arteria carotis communis ranged from 2-7 cm. |
