In the measurements taken, the average diameter of the long (transvers) axes was found as 6.70 ± 1.91 while the short (vertical) was 4.56 ± 1.37 millimeter.

📌 3 Key Takeaways

🎯
Objective & Hypothesis:Supratrochlear foramen (septal aperture), one of the variations of humerus, is formed by perforation of the thin bone septum between olecranon fossa and coronoid fossa which are found proximal to the trochlea of humerus.
📊
Key Findings & Data:In various studies, it has been recorded that the cause of this variation results from elbow hyperextention and the frequency was between 0% and 60%.
💡
Conclusion & Impact:In the measurements taken, the average diameter of the long (transvers) axes was found as 6.70 ± 1.91 while the short (vertical) was 4.56 ± 1.37 millimeter.

Abstract

Supratrochlear foramen (septal aperture), one of the variations of humerus, is formed by perforation of the thin bone septum between olecranon fossa and coronoid fossa which are found proximal to the trochlea of humerus. In various studies, it has been recorded that the cause of this variation results from elbow hyperextention and the frequency was between 0% and 60%. In our study which made on 114 humerus this ratio was found as 7.9%, and the shape of these holes was found as oval. In the measurements taken, the average diameter of the long (transvers) axes was found as 6.70 ± 1.91 while the short (vertical) was 4.56 ± 1.37 millimeter.

Özet

Humerus'un varyasyonlarından biri olan foramen supratrochlearis (septal aperture), trochlea humeri'nin proksimalinde bulunan fossa coronoidea ve fossa olecrani arasındaki ince kemik septumun perforasyonu ile oludur. Literatürde, dirsek hiperekstansiyonunun bu perforasyona neden olabileceği ve görülme sıklığının yaklaşık olarak %0-60 arasında değişebileceği bildirilmektedir. 114 humerus'ta yaptığımız çalışmada bu oran %19 olarak bulundu. Çalışmamızda bu deliklerin; şekillerinin oval, uzun (transvers) eksenlerinin ortalama çapının 6.70 ± 1.91 mm, kısa (vertikal) eksenlerinin ortalama çapının 4.56 ± t.37 mm olduğu tespit edildi.
