摘要

Respected Doctor, Selcuk Tunali, MD, PhD: We have read "An opinion ab out 'International Journal of Anatomical Variations" [1,2] and its aptly written but many aspects of this great journal are missing. So we just wish to convey our thoughts to esteem readers of this journal. We would like to put following points which might be missed by earlier aut hors pertaining to advant age of this journal. 1) The articles are available onli ne and site being upd ated regularly. 2) Onli ne submission and very quick reviewing process cont rols unnecessary delay which generally other jour nals take. 3) No charge for publication which is really rare amongst reputed journals*. 4) Most of the findings (variations) remain undisclosed due to paucity of such journal at national level. Hence th is journal plays crucial role being only journal only for variat ions. 5) Not only anatom ist but this is of g reat help to su rgeons too in their clinical practice and similarly for forensic people also. 6) Really good quality of figures. We are regular readers of this journal and articles which we l iked most in the latest issue are article by Mourgela et al. [3] and article by Doll S [4]. We would like to conclude our letter with a fact that as many as fifteen typ es of variations in branching pattern of arch of aorta is seen with left com mon carotid artery originating from aorta itself being most common among them. A big salute is mandatory to ed itor and all persons associated with this journal. We wish all the best for prosperity and wide readership for this journal
