In anatomy, the term aberrant denotes an anomaly or an untypical course of norm variants in vessels or organs.
In dentistry, the term aberrant also refers to atypical formations or atypical shapes of anatomical structures, e.g. of the roots or teeth. Aberrant is then often equated with malformation or deformation.
