    الوصف: There is a perceived need for anatomy instruction for graduate students enrolled in a biomedical engineering program. This appeared especially important for students interested in and using medical images. These students typically did not have a strong background in biology. The authors arranged for students to dissect regions of the body that were of particular interest to them. Following completion of all the dissections, the students presented what they had learned to the entire class in the anatomy laboratory. This course has fulfilled an important need for our students.

    الوصف: Seven patients presented with an isolated extensor digitorum communis (EDC) palsy immediately after undergoing surgery in which the posterior (Thompson) approach to the proximal radius was used. All had normal neurologic examination findings documented prior to surgery. In an attempt to localize this lesion, the authors studied the arborization of the terminal motor branches of the posterior interosseous nerve (PIN) at the distal edge of the supinator. A common innervation pattern to the superficial extensor muscles was observed in 29 of 30 cadaveric limbs. In 10 of 10 specimens, when the EDC was subdivided into its individual bellies, a reproducible pattern emerged: the proximal EDC muscles of the middle and ring fingers were supplied primarily by the recurrent nerve branch(es) and the EDC muscles of the index and little fingers, by separate nerve branches. Consistent with our anatomic findings, perioperative stimulation of the recurrent branch in 1 neurologically intact patient resulted in middle and ring finger extension. Electromyography in 8 normal limbs showed that the middle and ring fingers could be activated together without the index and little fingers in all cases. We believe that these patients with isolated EDC nerve palsy may have sustained an iatrogenic injury to EDC motor branches, distal to the supinator rather than to a PIN fascicle near the proximal supinator.

    الوصف: A thorough knowledge of topographical anatomy is essential for learning new surgical procedures. Operations on the venous system of the legs require understanding the anatomy of the main groups of veins, their location and relationship to adjacent structures within the different compartments of the leg. Veins in few regions of the human body have more variability than in the lower limbs, and few areas in the body have a more complex topographical anatomy than the subfascial leg compartments.

    الوصف: Parkinson's disease has been described as a multisystem disorder that includes alterations in the function of the autonomic nervous system. The activity of the adrenal medulla in this disease has not been thoroughly investigated. Previous reports are reviewed that demonstrate that the adrenal medullae of parkinsonian patients are compromised, having a decreased content of all catecholamines and several neuropeptides. An animal model was used to investigate whether the observations made in human patients were related to extended treatment with antiparkinsonian medications or were a natural concomitant of the disease. Administration of L-dopa and/or carbidopa to C57BL mice for 4–16 weeks had no significant effect on the level of any of the adrenal medullary catecholamines. Treatment with MPTP 4–16 weeks prior to sacrifice did not deplete adrenal medullary catecholamines in these animals, thus not fully mimicking Parkinson's disease in this animal model. The only significant effect was an interaction between group (MPTP or control) and treatment with antiparkinsonian medications; L-dopa, in the absence and presence of carbidopa, had opposite effects in the two groups. Based primarily on the lack of effect of antiparkinsonian medications on adrenal medullary catecholamines, it was concluded that the adrenal medullary depletion observed in human patients was a peripheral concomitant of Parkinson's disease. © 1994 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    الوصف: The boundaries of Guyon’s canal have recently been redefined by a series of anatomical dissections. These showed that the confines of this space do not extend from the pisiform to the hook of the hamate, as currently accepted. The fascial roof extends radial to the hook of the hamate, which allows the ulnar neurovascular bundle to course radial to the hamate hook. The position of the ulnar nerve and artery is of particular significance for endoscopic carpal tunnel release. Most endoscopic devices are designed to divide the flexor retinaculum just to the radial aspect of the hamate hook. Utilizing cross-sectional analysis of nine cadaver specimens, we found the ulnar artery to course radial to the hamate hook in five and palmar to it in four. Therefore, the ulnar artery may be at greater risk of injury during endoscopic procedures than previously recognized.

    الوصف: There are many approaches to obtaining high-resolution images and three dimensional volumetric data sets, but all have limitations. Many techniques involve reconstructing volumes of information from sections, either physical sections or optical sections. Recently, James Sharpe, Ulf Ahlgren, Paul Perry, Bill Hill, Allyson Ross, Jacob Hecksher-Sørensen, Richard Baldock, and Duncan Davidson have developed an optical technique that is analogous to computed tomography (CT). Whereas clinical CT involves an X-ray source and detector rotating around the patient, optical projection tomography (OPT) has the specimen rotating within an optical pathway.
