--- abstract: 'Variations of the arteries and nerves are of clinical importance to the clinicians and surgeons in performing the surgeries. During the routine dissection for the undergraduates, variation in the branches of external carotid artery was noted in the right carotid triangle. The superior thyroid artery showed an upward loop from its origin and had a highly tortuous course, the lingual and facial arteries arouse from a common linguo-facial trunk and the ascending pharyngeal artery took origin from the Internal carotid artery. The ansa cervicalis showed absence of inferior root. The second and third cervical spinal nerves joined the superior root separately.' altloc: - http://www.ojhas.org/issue50/2014-2-3.html chapter: ~ commentary: ~ commref: ~ confdates: ~ conference: ~ confloc: ~ contact_email: ~ creators_id: - lidibudy@gmail.com - ~ - ~ creators_name: - family: Quadros given: LS honourific: '' lineage: '' - family: Pandey given: AK honourific: '' lineage: '' - family: D'Souza given: AS honourific: '' lineage: '' date: 2014-08-30 date_type: published datestamp: 2017-02-18 20:32:10 department: ~ dir: disk0/00/00/98/25 edit_lock_since: ~ edit_lock_until: 0 edit_lock_user: ~ editors_id: - Kakkilaya BS editors_name: - family: Kakkilaya given: Srinivas honourific: Dr lineage: '' eprint_status: archive eprintid: 9825 fileinfo: /style/images/fileicons/application_pdf.png;/9825/1/2014-2-3.pdf full_text_status: public importid: ~ institution: ~ isbn: ~ ispublished: pub issn: ~ item_issues_comment: [] item_issues_count: ~ item_issues_description: [] item_issues_id: [] item_issues_reported_by: [] item_issues_resolved_by: [] item_issues_status: [] item_issues_timestamp: [] item_issues_type: [] keywords: 'Ansa cervicalis, Ascending pharyngeal artery, Linguo-facial trunk, Superior thyroid artery, Variations' lastmod: 2017-02-18 20:32:10 latitude: ~ longitude: ~ metadata_visibility: show note: ~ number: 2 pagerange: ~ pubdom: TRUE publication: Online Journal of Health and Allied Sciences publisher: Kakkilaya BS refereed: TRUE referencetext: "1.\tRomanes GJ.
