Yaşları 40 ile 89 arasında değişen 24`ü erkek 16`sı kadın 40 kadavranın insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(80 taraf); tiroid bezleri diseke edildi. 9 tarafta insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(%11,25); çıplak gözle farkedilemeyen tüberkül insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(grade 0);, 16 tarafta insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(%20); grade 1 tüberkül gözlendi. 45 tarafta insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(%56,25); ise grade 2 tüberkül gözlendi. Bu tüberküller dairesel insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(bezelye şekilinde); ve üçgen şekilli olarak tanımlandı. Tüberküllerin çoğunun tiroid lobunun posterior`unda, 3 tarafta ise posterolateral`inde yerleştiği gözlendi. 10 tarafta insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(%12,5); grade 3 tüberkül gözlendi. Bu tüberküller de üçgen insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(okbaşı şekilinde); ve dikdörtgen şekilli olarak tanımlandı. Bu tüberküllerin genellikle tiroid lobunun lateralinde ve trachea ile oesophagus`un arasında yerleştikleri gözlendi. Sadece 2 tarafta retroösofageal yerleşimli tüberküle rastlanıldı. Grade 2 ve 3 tüberküle tarafların %68,75`inde rastlanıldı. Bu tüberküllerin genellikle tiroid lobunun posterior`unda yerleştiği gözlenmekteyken birkaç tanesinin de posterolateralde yerleştiği tespit edildi. Çalışmamızda Zuckerkandl tüberkülünün yerleşimi ve morfolojisinin anlaşılabilmesi için bulgular yüksek çözünürlüklü fotoğraflar ile ortaya konuldu.

Forty specimens insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(80 sides); were examined for this project, including 24 males and 16 female Turkish cadavers between the ages of 40 and 89 years at death. Unnoticeable tubercle insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(grade 0); was observed in 9 sides insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(11.25%);, while grade 1 was found in 16 sides insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(20%);. Grade 2 was observed in 45 sides insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(56.25%);. Its shape was circular, similar to a pea or triangular. The tubercle extended postero-lateral to the thyroid lobe in 3 sides, while posterior to it in most sides. Grade 3 was found in 10 sides insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(12.5%);. Its shape was also triangular, like a large arrowhead, or quadrangular. The grade 3 tubercle was generally located at lateral of the thyroid gland and between the trachea and esophagus. Retro-esophageal location was found only in two sides. We found grade 2 and 3 Zuckerkandl`s tubercle in 68.75% sides of 40 cadavers. They were generally located posterior to the thyroid lobe, while a few postero-lateral. To be understood the position and morphology of the Zuckerkandl`s tubercle, we have documented our findings in the form of high-resolution photographs. Key words: thyroid gland - Zuckerkand`s tubercle – inferior laryngeal nerve – impression symptom – esophagus
