Anatomical variations

edit

Apart from what is already there in anatomy atlases, variations are something that should be aware of. I encourage those who are interested or have background knowledge to help expand the articles in this area. I believe this is a huge area we can expand. Note that it is not always necessary to create a new article to explain an anatomical variation. Varied features of normal anatomical structures can be added to the heading 'structure' under new subheading 'variations'. (See WP:MEDMOS#Anatomy) It can be based on cadaveric studies, case reports or meta-analyses. Please visit Illustrated Encyclopedia of Human Anatomic Variation for a more complete list.

Nerve tracts

edit

Nerve tracts are arranged and written in a confusing and technical manner. I aim to improve their coverage, layout and organisation.

New pages for anatomical variations

edit

List of human anatomical variations is gradually expanding. There are many structures that still lack their own Wikipedia page.
