The thyrocervical trunk: an analysis of its morphology and variations

The number of studies on the variations of the branching of the TT is scarce, and those works that treat about the different types of the said trunk are oftentimes inconsistent. Therefore, the authors of the present study would like to propose a set of five types of TT, which were created based on o...

description The number of studies on the variations of the branching of the TT is scarce, and those works that treat about the different types of the said trunk are oftentimes inconsistent. Therefore, the authors of the present study would like to propose a set of five types of TT, which were created based on observations of 41 computed tomography angiographies (82 TTs). To establish the anatomical variations, their prevalence, and morphometrical data regarding the TT and its branches, a retrospective study was performed. The results of 55 consecutive patients who underwent neck and thoracic computed tomography angiography (CTA) were analyzed. The analysis was performed on a total of 82 TTs of 41 patients, aged 15 to 82 years (mean age: 46 years; SD: 18.4), of which 16 (39.0%) were females, and 25 (61.0%) were males. Initially, 11 types of variations were evaluated, of which types 1–4 constituted 89.0%. Furthermore, a new method of classification of the anatomical variations of the TTs has been established. In this study, the variety of the branching and morphology of the TT was presented, proposing its novel classification based on the five most commonly prevalent types. Types 1 and 2 were the most common, with a prevalence of 26.8% each. This work also provides physicians with crucial data about the morphology of the TT and its branches, which can surely be of use when performing endovascular or reconstructive procedures in the cervical region.
