The pyramidal lobes were located in the Central part of the isthmus in 23.07% (3 cases), at the Junction of the right lobe with the isthmus 23.07% (3 cases),the Junction of the left lobe with the isthmus, 15.3% (2cases),at the L lobe 30.7% (4 cases) and R lobe 7.6% (1 case). The absence of isthumus was observed in 2 specimens(6.2%).Totally,Eight of the cadavers(25%)showed the presence of a thin and fibrous Levator Glandulae Thyroidea(LGT) of which 4 were seen arising from pyramidal lobe and 3 from the right lobe.A LGT showed the presence of muscle fibers in it receiving a twig from ansa cervicalis.Interestingly,in one of the cadavers, there were 2 LGTs, 1 arising from the right lobe and another from a small pyramidal lobe.

Adrenal glands are a pair of endocrine glands and target structure of the Hypothalamic Pituitary Adrenal axis and stress system. Stress plays an important role in affecting adrenal gland structure and function which may have a connection with suicidal behaviour in depressed individuals. Objective: To analyze the morphometric changes in length, breadth, thickness and weight of human adrenal glands in hanging and poison death autopsy cases in different age groups. Methods: Sample Size: 186 adrenals from 93 cadavers (52 hanging and 41 poison cases). Study Design: Analytical –observational Study. Study setting: The samples were collected from Post mortem centre at Sri Venkateswara hospital, Chittoor district and divided into three age groups like 20-30, 30-40, 40-50 years. A ...
