Ördekte (Anas platyrhynchos) patella'nın makro-anatomik yapısı

Araştırmada Ankara yöresinden temin edilen toplam 20 adet (10 adet dişi, 10 adet erkek) ergin ördek kullanıldı. Materyaller, ketamine-xylazine kombinasyonu ile uyutulduktan sonra bütün kaslar temizlendi. Maserasyon için kemikler 1-2 saat kaynatıldı. Patella’nın dişide kare, erkekte dikdörtgen şeklinde olduğu saptandı. Facies cranialis’in ortasında bulunan sulcus musculus ambientis’in, dişilerde erkeklere göre daha belirgin olduğu gözlendi. Kemiğin kalınlığı, dişilerde ortalama 1mm erkeklerde ise 2 mm olduğu, uzunluğu dişide ortalama 8-9 mm, erkeklerde ise 11-12 mm arasında, eni ise dişide 4-5 mm, erkekte 7-8 mm olarak belirlendi.

Macro-anatomical structure of patella in ducks (Anas platyrhynchos)

In this study, 20 (n = 10 females, n = 10 males) adult ducks obtained from Ankara region were used. After euthanasia by ketamine-xylazine combinations, all muscles were removed. Bones were boiled for 1-2 h for maceration. It was determined that the patella was in a square shape in females whereas it was in a rectanguler shape in males. Sulcus musculus ambientis located at the center of facies cranialis was more prominent in females in comparison to males. It was observed that its lenght was 8-9 mm in females and 11-12 mm in males and its width was 4-5 mm in females and 7-8 mm in males.
