Research paper thumbnail of BILATERAL FORAMINA ON THE POSTERIOR ARCH OF THE ATLAS. Foramina bilateral en el arco posterior del atlas

En estas muestras, se observó que la tercera parte de las arterias vertebrales pasan a través del foramen accesorio ubicado en el arco posterior del atlas. Anomalías del atlas y la arteria vertebral no son comúnmente reportadas en la literatura; sin embargo, son importantes debido a su importancia en el diagnóstico y tratamiento clínico. Forámenes bilate-rales en el arco posterior de C1 no se han informado anteriormente en una población escocesa. Para los neurocirujanos y radiólogos la presencia de este rasgo no métrico es importante a la hora de realizar operaciones o en la interpretación de esta zona de la anatomía.

Durante una clase de disección de pre-grado de la extremidad inferior se encontró una doble vena safena magna unilateral en el miembro inferior izquierdo de un cadáver masculino. La incidencia de esta variación fue del 1,3% de todos los especímenes muestra. En este trabajo se reporta la variabilidad del drenaje venoso de las extremidades inferiores para mejorar la conciencia para los radiólogos vasculares y proporcionar además una opción adicional en la cirugía de bypass de la arteria coronaria para evitar las várices iatrogénicas. A double great saphenous vein has been associated with varicosity in a number of studies. During routine undergraduate dissection of the lower limb a unilateral double great saphenous was found in the left lower limb of a male cadaver. The incidence of this variation was 1.3% of all specimens. This paper reports the variability of lower limb venous drainage to incr...

Research paper thumbnail of Variability in attachment of the coracoacromial ligament in relation with its morphology

Sectioning the CAL has been suggested to relieve impingement of the rotator cuff. The aim of the current study was to investigate the CAL attachment in relation with ligament morphology. The CAL was investigated in 220 cadaveric shoulders from 58 males and 59 females, with a median age of 82 years (range 53-102 years). CALs were classified according to three factors: (1) number of bands present; (2) shape; and (3) attachment to the acromial and coracoid processes. 35 (16%) CALs had a single band, 84 (38%) two bands, and 101 (46%) three or more bands. CAL shape was either broadband (14: 6%), quadrangular (21: 10%), Y-shaped (84: 38%), or multiple-banded (101: 46%). More ligaments were attached to the medial aspect of the acromion (60%) and medial end of the coracoid (75%) than those restricted to the anterior edge of the acromion (40...

Research paper thumbnail of Surface anatomy of major anatomical landmarks of the neck in an adult population: a CT evaluation of vertebral level

Methods Sixteen slice CT images of 101 individuals were analyzed using a 32-bit Radiant DICOM viewer to establish the relationships among major anatomical landmarks in the neck and their vertebral levels. The structures investigated included: hard palate (HP), hyoid bone (HB) including body and lesser horns, soft palate (SP), thyroid gland (TG) (both superior and inferior poles), thyroid gland anteroposterior (APD) and superoinferior (SID) diameters, thyroid isthmus (TI) superoinferior dimension, epiglottis, vertebral arteries (right and left), and both right and left parotid glands (superior and inferior extents). Results The vertebral levels noted most frequently were: body of hyoid bone (C4, 42.71%); lesser horns of hyoid bone (C3, 36.46%); thyroid gland superior pole (C6, 31.25%); and thyroid gland inferior pole (T...

Research paper thumbnail of Does Virtual Haptic Dissection Improve Student Learning? A Multi-Year Comparative Study

Studies in health technology and informatics, 2016

The study ran over five successive years and was split into three discreet phases. Phase one compared the results of PG students across control, non-haptic and haptic groups. Phase two compared the results of UG students between control and haptic groups. Phase three compared the results of UG students across control, non-haptic and haptic groups. Results for all phases indicate that use of the model, both through haptic and non-haptic interfaces produced some significantly improved test results. The non-haptic group performing the strongest overall indicating that the addition of haptic feedback may not be beneficial to student learning.

Research paper thumbnail of Anatomy of the Collateral Ligaments of the Human Ankle Joint

Foot Ankle International, Nov 1, 1998

Damage to the collateral ligaments of the ankle is relatively common, particularly the lateral li... more Damage to the collateral ligaments of the ankle is relatively common, particularly the lateral ligaments; therefore, it is important to be aware of the detailed anatomy and frequency of variation of the individual ligaments. Only two reports of collateral ligaments dimensions were found in the literature, neither of which considers all of the individual components of the collateral ligament complex. Osteoligamentous preparations of the collateral ligaments of 40 ankles from 20 cadavers of European Caucasian origin were studied, from which mean values for the length and width of the individual components were determined, together with their frequency of occurrence. For the collateral ligaments of the ankle as a whole, the ligamentous dimensions determined in this study are similar to those reported previously. The data presented in this study are, therefore, a valuable addition to the small pool of data that exists concerning the dimensions of the collateral ligaments of the human ankle joint. These data may be of value when considering surgical repair or reconstruction of traumatized collateral ligaments, especially because any undue foreshortening of the ligaments may reduce the range of motion possible at either the ankle or subtalar joints, or both. It is possible that in extreme cases, such a reduction in the range of motion may modify gait patterns and the transmission of stresses across the joints of the foot and lower limb.

Research paper thumbnail of Human Gastric Mucosal Hydrophobicity Does dot Decrease with Helicobacter Pylori Infection or Chronological Age

Canadian Journal of Gastroenterology, 2005

Previous studies in humans have reported a decreased gastric hydrophobicity with H pylori infection. The aim of the present study was to differentiate between the effect of cagA+ and cagA- strains on gastric mucus hydrophobicity.METHODS: One hundred patients without peptic ulcers and not on medication were randomly recruited from endoscopy clinics; each patient had six biopsies. Contact angle measurements were performed using a goniometer assisted by computer software. H pylori status was assessed by histology, Campylobacter-like organism test and culture, and cagA+ status was determined by polymerase chain reaction.RESULTS: In age- and sex-matched patients, there was no significant difference (P=0.27) in contact angle between H pylori-positive (61±2.8°) and H pylori-negative patients (65.5±3.0°). There was also no significant difference (P=0.36) in ...
