Özet
Atlas omurundaki gelişimsel anomaliler sadece anatomistlerin değil, morfolojideki farklılığın kliniğe yansımasının bilincinde olması gereken klinisyenlerin, radyologların ve cerrahların da ilgi alanıdır. Diş hekimleri, nedeni açıklanamayan baş ve boyun ağrısı, görme rahatsızlıkları, konuşma ve yutma problemleri, vertigo, vasküler problemler, vertebral arter ve suboksipital sinirin sıkışması ile ilgili semptomlarla ilişkili olabileceğinden, bu durumların varlığında Ponticulus posticus'u (PP) dikkatlice incelemelidirler. Bu yazının amacı, diş hekimlerini, özellikle oral ve maksillofasiyal radyologları ve ortodontistleri, doğrudan servikal omur anomalilerinin tedavileri ile ilgili olmasalar da, servikal omurları inceleme ve normal anatomiden ayrılan farklılıklarını saptama konusunda duyarlı hale getirmektir.
Developmental anomalies of the atlas are of interest not only to anatomists but also clinicans, radiologists, surgeons, who should be aware of their distinct morphological manifestations as well as correlated clinical expressions. Dentists should look carefully for Ponticulus posticus (PP) because these abnormalities may be related to otherwise unexplainable head and neck pain, visual disturbances, problems with speech and swallowing, vertigo, vascular problems and other symptoms related to compression of the vertebral artery and suboccipital nerve. The aim of this paper, although the dentists especially oral and maxillofacial radiologists and orthodontists are not directly concerned with the management of cervical spine anomalies to sensitize them to realize the cervical spine and be equipped to identify differences from normal anatomy.
