Objective : Aim of the present study is to observe the detailed anatomy of spinous process of typical cervical vertebrae and to note variations if any along with their frequencies of occurrences in Indian population and clinical importance. Material and method : 200 dried typical cervical vertebrae(C3-C6) belonging to both sexes were taken for study from the Department of Anatomy of Hamdard Institute of Medical Sciences and Research ,Jamia Hamdard New Delhi and Career Institute of Medical Sciences and Hospital, Lucknow Uttar Pradesh. Result : it was observed 173 (86.5%) vertebrae with bifid spinous process, 15(7.5%) vertebrae were having partially bifid spinous process and 12(6%) vertebrae were having a non-bifid spinous process. Conclusion : Variations in bifidity of spinous process of typical cervical vertebrae were observed. These variations may be useful for the neurosurgeons, orthopedics surgeons and radiologists for interpreting the skiagrams, computed tomogram and magnetic resonance image scans.Downloads
