Journal Title: IJAR-Indian Journal of Applied Research - Year 2016, Vol 6, Issue 10

Abstract

The incidence of coronary artery disease is increasing now a day’s all over the world. Coronary arteries show wide variations & Dominance pattern which has got important clinical significance in different pathologies. So the present work is undertaken to study the variations, branching pattern & dominance of coronary arteries in population of vidarbha region of Maharashtra, India. These region based variations have not been dealt with enough in the standard books. The knowledge of these variations are of paramount importance when considering various surgical interventions. Aim of the present study was to determine the variations, branching pattern & dominance of coronary arteries in vidarbha region and to compare it with other studies. Thirty eight cadaveric hearts were studied. The population under study included the population of vidarbha region. The coronary arteries were examined by gross dissection and analysed statistically. The modes of termination of the right coronary artery and the circumflex artery were described with the help of five points: 1) at the right border 2) between the right border and the crux 3) at the crux4) between the crux and the left border and 5)at the left border. Origin of the posterior inter-ventricular artery was taken as the basis of dominance. Right dominance was found in 89.47% &left dominance was found in10.52%. The results of the study when compared with other authors the right dominance is significantly higher while no balanced dominance was seen. So it can be concluded that every region carries its own proportions of dominance and detailed studies should be conducted for betterment of human being in each region.
