Abstract

In this study, we aim to investigate distance from the limbus to the rectus muscle insertions and distance between each rectus muscle insertions. The study was performed on 60 eyes taken from 30 cadavers (17 male, 13 female). Insertions of the rectus muscles were clearly exposed under the dissection microscope. Distances were measured with Vernier caliber after dissection of the muscles. Our results indicated that the distance from the limbus to the medial rectus muscle was the shortest (6.4±0.5 mm) and from the limbus to the superior rectus muscle was the longest 8.1±0.5 mm). When we measured length of line (width) of the rectus muscle insertions, we observed that the rectus superior was the widest (10.5±1.0 mm) and the rectus inferior was the narrowest (8.4±0.6 mm). When we compared the distances between the closest rectus muscles we found that the distance between the lateral rectus and inferior rectus was the longest (9.0±0.5 mm), and the distance between the medial rectus and inferior rectus was the shortest (7.3±0.4 mm). Vertical diameter of the globe and cornea were measured as 23±0.7 mm and 11.6±0.7 mm, respectively. Horizontal diameter of them was measured as 23.3±0.5 mm and 11.8±1.0 mm, respectively.

Özet

Bu çalışmada, rektus kaslarının insersiyon noktalarının limbus corneae'ye olan uzaklıklarının, kasların insersiyonlarının birbirlerine olan uzaklıklarının ve sclera'ya yapıştıkları yerdeki tendonlarının genişliklerinin ölçülmesi amaçlandı. Araştırmamız, 17'si erkek, 13'ü kadın toplam 30 kadavradan alınan 60 göz üzerinde yapıldı. Kadavralardan çıkarılan her bir göz, Zeiss marka diseksiyon mikroskobu altında diseke edilerek rektus kaslarının tam olarak insersiyon alanları ortaya çıkarıldı. Ölçümler Vernier kalibrasyon cihazı ile yapıldı. Ölçümlerimiz sonucunda, limbus corneae ile m.rectus medialis'in insersiyosunun orta noktası arasındaki uzaklığın en düşük (6.4±0.5 mm), m.rectus superior'un insersiyosunun orta noktası arasındaki uzaklığın ise en yüksek (8.1±0.5 mm) olduğu tespit edildi. Kasların insersiyon noktalarındaki genişlikleri ölçüldüğünde m.rectus superior'un en yüksek (10.5±1.0 mm), m.rectus inferior'un ise en düşük (8.4±0.6 mm) genişliğe sahip olduğu, komşu rektus kasları arasındaki uzaklığa baktığımızda ise, m.rectus lateralis ile m.rectus inferior arasındaki uzaklığın en yüksek (9.0±0.5 mm), m.rectus medialis ile m.rectus inferior arasındaki uzaklığın en düşük (7.3±0.4 mm) olduğu tespit edildi. Bulbus oculi ve cornea'nın vertikal çapları sırasıyla 23±0.7mm ve 11.6±0.7mm, horizontal çapları ise 23.3±0.5mm ve 11.8±1.0 mm olarak ölçüldü.
