Abstract
Background
This review aims to explore the role of the alveolar antral artery and to contribute a combined data set pertaining to the artery's prevalence, diameter, and proximity of related structures.
Methods
A comprehensive literature review. Five databases were searched, namely: Web of Science, Scopus, MEDLINE-PubMed, EMBASE, CINHAL-Ultimate in September 2023. Collected and analyzed data included the prevalence and diameter of the alveolar antral artery, the diameter of the artery divided into groups of less than 1 mm, 1–2 mm, and more than 2 mm, and the distance between the artery and the alveolar ridge. The AQUA-tool was utilized to assess the quality of each study. The data was extracted and organized into comparison tables.
Results
50 articles met the inclusion criteria. The studies reported differences between genders regarding the included criteria. The review identified inconsistent nomenclature used to describe the alveolar antral artery, potentially leading to confusion or misinterpretation among researchers and clinicians. The literature discusses a variety of scenarios regarding the artery in surgical operations, including techniques for managing and preserving it.
Discussion
The literature highlights the importance of standardizing anatomical nomenclature for anastomosis and emphasizes the necessity for developing clinical guidelines in the management of the artery.
期刊介绍：
Translational Research in Anatomy is an international peer-reviewed and open access journal that publishes high-quality original papers. Focusing on translational research, the journal aims to disseminate the knowledge that is gained in the basic science of anatomy and to apply it to the diagnosis and treatment of human pathology in order to improve individual patient well-being. Topics published in Translational Research in Anatomy include anatomy in all of its aspects, especially those that have application to other scientific disciplines including the health sciences: • gross anatomy • neuroanatomy • histology • immunohistochemistry • comparative anatomy • embryology • molecular biology • microscopic anatomy • forensics • imaging/radiology • medical education Priority will be given to studies that clearly articulate their relevance to the broader aspects of anatomy and how they can impact patient care.Strengthening the ties between morphological research and medicine will foster collaboration between anatomists and physicians. Therefore, Translational Research in Anatomy will serve as a platform for communication and understanding between the disciplines of anatomy and medicine and will aid in the dissemination of anatomical research. The journal accepts the following article types: 1. Review articles 2. Original research papers 3. New state-of-the-art methods of research in the field of anatomy including imaging, dissection methods, medical devices and quantitation 4. Education papers (teaching technologies/methods in medical education in anatomy) 5. Commentaries 6. Letters to the Editor 7. Selected conference papers 8. Case Reports
