Significance of anatomical variations for clinical practice
Journal Title: International Journal of Anatomical Variations - Year 2017, Vol 10, Issue 3
Abstract
Anatomical variations are an often encountered phenomenon and even though some have been described extensively in literature, many are still being reported for the first time. Clinical awareness of known and newly discovered anatomical variations, which can be achieved through a frequent review of the pertinent literature in specialized journals, is the key to a successful outcome in the clinical setting.
