This study was done to measure the weight of vermiform appendix in Bangladeshi people to augment the data regarding variational anatomy in our setting. A total 100 vermiform appendix (male - 60, female - 40) were excised from cadaver of different age and sex during routine post mortem examination in the autopsy laboratory of Forensic Medicine Department of Mymensingh Medical College. This cross-sectional study was done by convenient sampling technique. The weight depended on length and thickness. The weight decreases gradually with advancing age probably decreasing number of lymphatic follicle and that replaced by connective tissue. Lymphatic follicles were examined and estimated by microscope. For convenience of differentiating the weight of vermiform appendix in relation to age and sex, specimens were categorized in four age groups (up to 20 year, 21 - 35 years, 36 - 55 years, 56 - 70 years). Mean weight of vermiform appendix was maximum in group - B (4.07 ± SE 0.82 gm) and minimum in group D (3.01 ± SE 0.74 gm). The weight range was from 2 gm (group - D) to 5.50 gm (group - B). Diameter of lymphatic follicle was largest 43.08 micrometer in group-A, and least diameter was 3.08 micrometer in group - D. The range of number of lymphatic follicle was 1 to 6. Mean number of lymphatic follicle in male was 4.48 & in female were 5.40.

Background: The mesentery of the appendix extends almost to the appendicular tip along the whole tube or may not be to the tip. The mesoappendix has a free border which carries the blood supply to the organ. Failure of the mesoappendix to reach the tip probably reduces the vascularization of the tip of the organ making it more liable to become gangrenous and hence early perforation occurs during inflammation. Objective: This cross sectional study was carried out to advance our knowledge regarding the extent of mesoappendix in Bangladeshi people and also to find out the variations in the anatomical positions of the vermiform appendix in Bangladeshi population and their distribution according to the sex. Methods: A total of 100 (60 male and 40 female) specimens of vermiform appendix were collected of different age and sex during postmortem examination in the morgue of Mymensingh Medical College from July 2006 to June 2007. Data was collected by convenient sampling technique. Results: In this study pelvic position of the vermiform appendix were common in both sexes. The two thirds extension of mesoappendix was found in 45% cases where as in pelvic position it was 26 (14 male and 12 female) cases. Half and whole extension of mesoappendix were found in 31% and 24% cases respectively. Among half extension of mesoappendix, retrocaecal position were found to be more (12) than other positions. In whole extension of vermiform appendix pelvic position were found to be common (16) than others. Conclusion: This study provides certain basic information of extent of mesoappendix of vermiform appendix of Bangladeshi population which is responsible for vascularization of the organ and severity during inflammation.

Background: Cerebellum is ovoid in shape, but is constricted in the median plane, flattened from above downwards and widest from side to side. The cerebellum occupies the posterior cranial fossa, where it is covered by the tentorium cerebelli and lies behind the fourth ventricle, the pons and the medulla oblongata. Objective: The study was done to assess the transverse diameter of cerebellum in relation with age and sex in Bangladeshi people. Materials and Methods: A cross sectional descriptive study was performed on 60 (32 of male and 28 of female) postmortem. The specimens were collected from morgue in the department of Forensic Medicine, Mymensingh Medical College by purposive sampling technique. All the specimens were grouped into four categories: group A (20 to 29 years), group B (30 to 39 years), group C (40 to 49 years), group D (50 to 59 years). Dissection was performed according to standard autopsy techniques. Transverse diameter of cerebellum was measured with the help of slide caliper. For statistical analysis, differences between age groups were analyzed by using unpaired student't' test. Results: The mean (±SD) transverse diameter of cerebellum was 10.53 ± 0.55 cm in group A, 10.09 ± 0.51 cm in group B, 10.03 ± 0.44 cm in group C, 9.72 ± 0.40 cm in group D. The mean differences of the transverse diameter of cerebellum between groups A & C, A & D, A & B, B &D were statistically significant, differences between B & C, D & C were non significant. Conclusion: The study would help to increase the information pool on the transverse diameter of cerebellum of Bangladeshi people. KYAMC Journal Vol. 9, No.-4, January 2019, Page 159-162

Context: The thyroid gland is the first endocrine organ to evolve in the vertebrates. It has right and left lobes and connected by narrow median isthmus which lies over the second, third and fourth tracheal rings. A conical pyramidal lobe often ascends towards the hyoid bone from isthmus or the adjacent part of either lobe. It measures about 1.25 cm transversely and vertically. Its size and site vary greatly. Isthmus is topographically related with some important anatomical structures. So this study was carried out to determine the incidence of presence & variation in anatomical position of isthmus of thyroid gland of Bangladeshi people of different age groups to establish a normal standard. Study type: Descriptive cross-sectional study. Place and period of study: Department of Anatomy, Mymensingh Medical College. from October’2004 to February’2005. Materials: The study was carried out on 60 cadavers of different age groups age ranging from 11 to 70 years. Thyroid glands were collected from unclaimed dead bodies autopsied in Forensic Medicine Department of Mymensingh Medical College. Methods: The collected specimens were divided into age group A (upto 18 years), group B (18 to 45 years), group C (above45 years). All specimens were examined morphologically by fine dissection method. Result: In the present study isthmus was present in 41 (68.33%) cases. In those thyroids which were devoid of isthmus, lobes were found to be merged with each other in the midline but in one case two lobes were found completely separated from each other. It was evident that the posterior relations of isthmus were widely variable. In only 18% cases it was found at its usual position- against the 2nd, 3rd and 4th tracheal rings. In the present study more frequent location of isthmus was found at 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 2nd, 3rd, 4th tracheal rings. In both cases their incidences were 18.3%. Conclusion: The present study will help to increase the information pool on the anatomy of thyroid gland of Bangladeshi people. To establish a normal standard for Bangladeshi people, further studies with large samples from different zones of the country are suggested.

This cross sectional descriptive study was performed by examining 30 (thirty) relatively fresh cerebellum of Bangladeshi cadaver of both sexes and samples were collected by using nonprobability sampling technique. Out of them 20 postmortem human cerebellum collected from Bangladeshi cadavers of both sexes (male 10 and female 10) age ranging from 5 to 60 years and 10 cerebellums from caesarian section of dead fetuses of both sexes (male 6 and female 4) age ranging from 34 wks to 41 wks. Specimen containing cerebellum was collected from dead bodies autopsied on different dates from April’2009 to September’2009 at the autopsy laboratory of department of Forensic Medicine and Gynaecology and Obstetrics Department of Mymensingh Medical College, Mymensingh. The collected sample was grouped in to three age groups like Group A (34 to 41 weeks of gestation), Group B (5 to 30 years) and Group C (31 to 60 years) and two sex groups (male and female). 10 cerebellums were studied from each age group for this histological study. Sections were processed following standard histological procedure and were stained with Hematoxylin and Eosin stain. Slides were examined under 15X40 magnification for counting the number of Purkinje cell. In this study, the mean difference of number of Purkinje cell between age Groups A&C was statistically highly significant (p<0.001) but difference between Groups A&B and B&C statistically was not significant.

Background: The human adrenal gland shows a distinct proportion of two histological zones, named the cortex and the medulla, from outer inwards, in its histological appearance with differences in its cellular components and functions. Objective: The present study aims to see the variation in the proportion of the cortex and the medulla of the adrenal glands with age in a Bangladeshi population. Methods: A cross-sectional, descriptive study was done in the Department of Anatomy, Dhaka Medical College, Dhaka, from July 2008 to June 2009, based on collection of 140 postmortem human adrenal glands from 70 unclaimed dead bodies, in the Department of Forensic Medicine, Dhaka Medical College, Dhaka. The samples were divided into four age-groups including A (11-20 years), B (21-30 years), C (31-40 years) & D (41-60 years). Histological slides were prepared by using routine haematoxylin and eosin stain (H & E). Five best prepared slides from each group were examined under light compound microscope with low magnification. The thickness of adrenal cortex and medulla were measured by using ocular and stage micrometer and then converted into percentage volume. Results: The mean volume of the right adrenal cortex were found 83.64±3.71% in group A, 83.90±1.75% in group B, 83.74±5.78% in group C, 84.80±3.82% in group D, while the mean volume of the corresponding medulla were found 18.16±3.23% in group A, 15.70±2.71% in group B, 16.26±3.97% in group C, 16.20±4.04% in group D. The mean volume of the left adrenal cortex were found 84.64±3.49%, 84.90±1.75%, 84.20±3.40%, 85.44±2.66% in group A, B, C and D respectively, while the mean volume of the corresponding medulla were found 17.26±3.84%, 17.00±2.37%, 16.00±3.20% and 14.36±2.33% in group A, B, C and D respectively. The differences among the groups were not statistically significant. Conclusion: No difference was found in the proportion of the cortex and the medulla of adrenal gland in different age-groups.
