Objective: To study the variations in gross appearance of ascending aortic fdd, and relationship of vertical
height Of middle Off01d to vertical height of heart and to the mean Width Of the
Study Design: This was a cross sectional study.
Place and Duration of Study: Department of anatomy, Rawalpindi Medical College, Rawalpindi, from Jan 2010
to Dec 2010.
Materials and Methods: The present study was carried out on 24 hearts obtained from the dissection room of
Rawalpindi Medical College, Rawalpindi. All the cases cadavers available during the study period were included
in the study. The ascending aorta was studied with respect to its length and presence of fold in each of the
specimens. The direction ofthe fold was noted for the classic oblique form and other variations.
Results: The fold was present in all the specimens. It was Oblique in 13 cases, horizontal in 6, oval in 2, vertical
oblique in 2 and vertical horizontal in 1 indivldual. The vertical height of middle offdd was inversely proportional
to vertical height ofthe heart and directly proportional to the mean width ofthe fold.
Conclusion: The present study provided new dimension and observation that the vertical height ofthe middle of
fold and vertical height of heart are inversely proportional to each other. Vertical height of the middle of fold and
rnean width of the fold are directly pro-ik)rüonal to each other.
