Routine dissection of the lower limbs for undergraduate medical teaching was performed in a 67 years old female cadaver employing standard methods. Relevant gross features of the variations were photographed. H&E staining of relevant structure was done and photomicrographed.Results: The unusual motor branch to Sartorius was observed in the right thigh. The branch was given off in the lower third of the thigh after the saphenous nerve exited the adductor canal. The branch was distinctly seen entering the substance of the sartorius. The structure was confirmed to be a peripheral nerve by histological examination. The saphenous nerve then descended between the sartorius and gracilis tendons, pierced the fascia lata and became cutaneous.Conclusion: The motor branch to the sartorius muscle is a very rare branch whose knowledge is important for clinicians as it can get damaged during arthroscopy and other knee surgery or during adductor canal block.","PeriodicalId":49461,"journal":{"name":"Surgical and Radiologic Anatomy","volume":" ","pages":"1749-1752"},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2024-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141876533","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Although predominantly asymptomatic, they sometimes may be linked to painful conditions. One of the most common accessory ossicles in the foot is the accessory navicular bone (AN), located on the medial side of the foot. Our research provides a first meta-analysis on this topic that establishes its frequency by contrasting 39 studies from across the globe.Methods: Up to February 2024, PubMed and Embase databases were thoroughly searched for research on the AN. Eligible data regarding AN prevalence was extracted. This study strictly adhered to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines.Results: A total of 39 studies, 11,015 patients, and 36,837 feet were analyzed in our study. The pooled prevalence estimate (PPE) of AN was found to be 17.5% (95%CI: 11.5-25.7) and 12.6% (95%CI: 10.1-15.5) in patients and feet analyses, respectively. Accessory navicular occurred bilaterally in 50.0% of patients, with similar distribution in gender-based groups (21.1% of males and 22.0% of females were confirmed with AN). Accessory navicular was most prevalent in the East Asian population (38.4%) and least prevalent in North Americans (8.0%). No significant differences in AN prevalence were found when comparing different imaging modalities (X-ray and cadaver dissection).Conclusion: Accessory navicular is a common finding in imaging studies. Its prevalence depends on the population covered by the study but is not affected by the patient's gender or the imaging modality utilized for AN assessment.","PeriodicalId":49461,"journal":{"name":"Surgical and Radiologic Anatomy","volume":" ","pages":"1731-1743"},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2024-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11405447/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141972186","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The chordae tendineae are composed of collagen and elastic fibers. They connect to the ventricular side of the valve leaflets' free border and hinder the leaflets from swinging back into the atrial cavity during systole. Mitral valve chordae tendineae have been classified using a variety of classification systems. To our knowledge, we report a variant chordae tendinea that has yet to be described in the literature. The variant, present only on the mitral anterior papillary muscle, did not show the characteristic appearance of the chorda tendineae. Muscular fibers were observed extending from a larger than usual mitral anterior papillary muscle, inserting into the rough zone of the anterior leaflet. Several tendinous primary and secondary true leaflet chordae emerge from the apical portion of the anterior papillary muscle, inserting into the anterior leaflet's free edge and rough zone. Contraction of this muscular chorda during systole could disrupt the mechanics of valvular closure and result in possible regurgitation across the mitral valve. Additionally, this structure may be subject to rupture during myocardial infarction, leading to valvular dysfunction. The developmental connection between the chordae and papillary muscles could explain the anomalous muscularization of the chordae tendineae observed in this case.","PeriodicalId":49461,"journal":{"name":"Surgical and Radiologic Anatomy","volume":" ","pages":"1693-1698"},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2024-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142074344","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Variations in the number of folds, its proximal and distal attachments, and the drainage pattern of the occipital sinus were evaluated by histological processing of the upper 1/3rd section of the falx fold.Results: The variation in the number of folds recorded are single folds in 87.5%, double folded in 8.3%, and multiple folds (five and seven folded) in 4.2% of the cases. The variation in the proximal and distal attachments in single falx folds showed three combinations: Ramified triangular in 66.7%, both ramified type in 12.5%, and both triangular type in 8.3% of the cases. Double and multiple folds showed ramified and triangular types of variation in their attachments. Histological findings showed the presence of occipital venous sinuses in most of the single falx fold. Two aberrant venous sinuses were seen in a double and five-folded falx cerebelli.Conclusions: This study records the variations in the morphology of falx cerebelli.

All area and volume values of males were statistically higher than females (p < 0.05). The right side calcaneus area, intermediate cuneiform area, and lateral cuneiform area values were statistically higher than the left side (p < 0.045, p < 0.044, p < 0.030, respectively). There was no statistical relationship between age and area/volume values (p > 0.05). Three different types were seen in the calcaneus and seven in the talus.

Regardless of the subgroups, the most common type in the talus was type B (37.8%), while the least common type was E2 (1.1%).Conclusion: Although morphometric measurements of tarsal bones differed according to sex, they did not differ according to age. The frequency of occurrence of the types of articular surfaces of the talus and calcaneus varies according to populations. We think that the morphometry and morphology of tarsal bones will contribute to invasive procedures regarding tarsal bones and surrounding structures, and that three-dimensional bone modeling can be used to create educational materials.","PeriodicalId":49461,"journal":{"name":"Surgical and Radiologic Anatomy","volume":" ","pages":"1721-1729"},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2024-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141876532","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is believed to wrap around the first cervical nerve root and the vertebral artery, causing compression. We hypothesized that it would also reduce the diameter of the vertebral artery.Methods: Between January 1, 2022, and December 31, 2022, cervical spine CT scans taken for any reason were retrospectively reviewed. The images of 1365 patients suitable for evaluation were evaluated by two expert radiologists in 3 dimensions. Among patients with PP, those who underwent cervical angiography were identified for vertebral artery diameter measurement.Results: The average age of the 1365 individuals included in the study (732 males, 633 females) was 55.78 (± 18.85) with an age range of 1-96. Among this group, PP was detected in 288 individuals, resulting in a total prevalence of 21.1%. Right and left vertebral artery diameters were significantly lower in patients with complete PP compared to the absent group (p < 0,001, p < 0,001, respectively).

It is of utmost significance to otologists due to its dehiscence and relationship to the inner or middle ear components.

Pooled weighted estimation was performed to calculate the mean length, angle, and prevalence of dehiscence.Results: The cross-sectional shape of FC varied from circular to ellipsoid index and is 1.45 [95% CI, 0.86-2.6]. The mean length of the FC is 34.42 mm [95% CI, 27.62-40.13 mm] and the mean width or diameter is 1.35 mm [95% CI, 1.013-1.63 mm].

In meta-regression, age is observed as a predictor and accounts for 36% of the heterogeneity. The prevalence of FC dehiscence in healthy temporal bones is 29% [95% CI, 20-40%].Conclusion: The different segments of the FC exhibit significant variability and an unusually high incidence of dehiscence, which could potentially have clinical implications for the etiopathogenesis of facial nerve dysfunction.","PeriodicalId":49461,"journal":{"name":"Surgical and Radiologic Anatomy","volume":" ","pages":"1501-1516"},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2024-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141602036","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The standard and uncommon variants were also studied, considering the STA's exact surface of origin and the relationship with the upper border of the thyroid cartilage (TC, reference point), considering the laterality effect. Thus, the STA topographical anatomy was considered.Methods: An evidence-based systematic review with meta-analysis was performed according to the PRISMA 2020 guidelines. A literature search was conducted in four online databases using specific keywords, the pooled prevalence was calculated using statistical analysis in the R programming language, and multiple subgroup analyses were performed.Results: The most common distinct origin of the STA was from the external carotid artery (ECA) (56.94% pooled prevalence, 95%CI: 50.89-62.89), and the rarest one was from the internal carotid artery (ICA) (< 0.01%, 95%CI: 0.00-0.00).

The aim of this cadaveric study was to describe the origin of the arterial vascularization of the menisci.Methods: This is an anatomical study on human specimens. Twenty knees were used. The average age of the subjects was 82.7 years old (56-97). Ten knees were injected with latex-neoprene and ten knees were injected with colored gelatin mixed with India ink. The same protocol for dissection was used in all cases.Results: The meniscal vascularization is provided by the genicular arteries of the knee originating from the popliteal artery. The superior medial, superior lateral, inferior medial, inferior lateral, and middle genicular arteries had constant pathways. A second middle genicular artery was found in 55% of cases. The inferior lateral genicular artery ran alongside the meniscal's periphery. The inferior medial genicular artery followed the proximal tibial metaphysis. In all dissections, a previously undocumented small artery originated from under the middle genicular arteries. This artery remained extracapsular and followed the medial meniscal periphery. This artery has been named the \"medial capsulo-meniscal artery\". The genicular arteries formed an extensive peri-articular anastomotic vascularization for the menisci and thus referred to the \"peri-meniscal arterial archs\". The lateral peri-meniscal arch was predominantly supplied by the inferior lateral genicular artery, while the medial peri-meniscal arch was mainly supplied by the medial capsulo-meniscal artery.Conclusion: The peri-meniscal arterial archs are a vascular complex formed by the genicular arteries of the knee and an artery not previously described: the \"capsulo-meniscal artery\". These archs have a constant presence but their formation and distribution is different between the medial and lateral menisci.","PeriodicalId":49461,"journal":{"name":"Surgical and Radiologic Anatomy","volume":" ","pages":"1401-1409"},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2024-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141421556","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
