Over the past two years, much has happened. It has been daunting to lead a society through a time fraught with unknowns. If the struggles and challenges of COVID have not been enough, the crisis of social unrest has also brought us to our knees. Sadly, the word tragic has become all too common in our vocabulary. Our society has reacted strongly. We are changing, learning, and adapting, despite the obvious fear, anger, vulnerability, and uncertainty of the times: our present and future. As a group, we are performing admirably, courageously and responsibly. Despite the challenges, we are advancing our field and incorporating new ways to teach. Despite the social distancing and isolation, we recognize it’s all about people: communicating and collaborating by sharing ideas and experiences and tightening our alliances. We have been forced to cancel two face-to-face annual meetings which were already well in motion (June 15-19, 2020 at Weill Cornell in New York City which was to be hosted by Estomih Mtui, MD, and Anthony D’Antoni, MS, DC, PhD, and June 28 - July 2, 2021 in Bellevue, Washington planned to be hosted by R. Shane Tubbs, PhD, PA-C and Joe Iwanaga, DDS, PhD). Kudos to Jennifer Burgoon, PhD and MOPP for organizing and reconfiguring these meetings to occur at the prescheduled times. The 2020 meeting was the best virtual meeting ever! It far exceeded our typical target audience – with more than 400 registrants (250 members and 150 guests). It consisted of e-posters and platform presentations, symposia with Q and A (reflecting on lessons learned during this COVID pandemic), exhibitor sessions and business meetings. The 2021 meeting will have a similar scientific format with a continued focus highlighting the Clinical in Clinical Anatomy. This year we will add various social activities to foster engagement, team spirit and friendships: daily coffee talks and evening events (a Welcome Reception, Mentoring Session, Trivia night, a Banquet, and a Jewel Heist). On Monday, we will partner with international groups to share our global perspectives. Nirusha Lachman, PhD, Professor and Chair of the Department of Clinical Anatomy and Robert (Bob) Morreale, MS, Administrative Chair, Division of Experiential Learning (overseeing these specialty areas: Biomedical and Scientific Visualization, Clinical Anatomy, Microsurgery training, Multidisciplinary simulation and the procedural skills Mastery) at the Mayo Clinic, will present a talk “Putting the Clinical Back into Anatomy and Anatomy Back into the Clinic: A Reciprocal Model for Enhancing Education, Practice and Research.” On Tuesday, our Presidential Speaker L. Scott Levin, MD, FACS, the Paul B. Magnuson Professor of Bone and Joint Surgery, Chair of the Department of Orthopaedic Surgery at the University of Pennsylvania, a board certified orthopedist and plastic surgery (responsible for developing the field of ‘orthoplastic surgery’), and the Chair of the American College of Surgeons Board of Regents, will deliver an address “From the Hunter Brothers to the Perforator Kings: The History of Anatomic Dissection and its Impact on Reconstructive Microsurgery.” We celebrate Susan Standring, PhD with the 2021 Honored Member Award and Fiona Stewart, PhD, the R. Benton Adkins Service Award. This past year, we held a successful regional virtual meeting on Innovation in Integration which was cosponsored with HAPS and was cohosted by Eustathia Lela Giannaris, PhD and Alexandra Wink, PhD (October 3, 2020). We held virtual CART (Clinical Anatomy Round Table) Luncheons with Anne Agur, PhD on February 3, 2021 and Rebecca Pope-Ruark, PhD (Keeping the spark: Avoiding faculty burnout) on March 10, 2021, the latter co- sponsored with HAPS. continued on next page Our society, which has prided itself on being safe and inclusive, is fighting louder against discrimination, racism and sexual harassment. We have added an ad hoc Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Committee led by Yasmin Carter, PhD. Sarah Greene, PhD is championing the needs of the deaf and hard of hearing. Executive Committee, Council and Standing committees have been active: helping make difficult decisions seem easy and fostering innovation. Our membership is engaged. Finances are strong. Clinical Anatomy is flourishing under Shane’s leadership. We owe a huge debt of gratitude to ASG, specifically Caitlin Hyatt, Jennifer Whitlow, and Kendra Tyner. Our society has always led: successfully dealing with these events is consistent with our rich tradition --part of our DNA. This is a time for optimism. Our individual and collective journeys continue. Armed with lessons learned, we will emerge smarter and stronger. The new normal will be different by definition. Our society will forge ahead. We look forward to the Fort Worth, TX meeting hosted by Rusty Reeves, PhD June 13 - 17, 2022 and with Tom Gest, PhD serving as President –and beyond… 2023 in Orlando, FL (July 9 – 12), 2024 at Weill Cornell Medicine in New York, NY and 2025 in Bellevue, WA. The future of AACA is secure and exciting. We have a responsibility to continue to lead in all respects - at work, at home, and in our society. Be safe. Be healthy. Find JOY. Model this for others. Robert J. Spinner, M.D. The AACA believes that each conference attendee should be treated with respect and dignity and that any form of sexual harassment is a violation of human dignity. The AACA condemns sexual harassment and maintains a “zero - tolerance” for sexual harassment. All conference attendees have the right to participate and learn free of sexual harassment. The AACA will take all reasonable efforts to prevent and promptly correct instances of sexual harassment. Any conference attendee who believes himself or herself to be a victim of sexual harassment is encouraged to

We are presenting a case here to show how dangerous gall bladder fossa may be after an easy Calot's Triangle dissection. A 45 year old female with a history of biliary colic was scheduled for open cholecystectomy. After dissection in Calot's triangle & removal of gall bladder from liver bed it was seen that the right hepatic artery travels a long extra- hepatic course through gall bladder fossa before entering the liver near thefundus of the gall bladder. The right hepatic duct also seen to travel an unusually long extra-hepatic coursethrough the gall bladder fossa before entering into the liver. The right hepatic duct was punctured with fine needle to confirm the presence of bile. KEYWORDS : open cholecystectomy, aberrant right hepatic artery, aberrant right hepatic duct INTRODUCTION the gall bladder after giving off the cystic artery branch.

  • An Introduction to Apophysis © Clive Haynes MMXX
    Apophysis Fractal Generator An Introduction Clive Haynes Fractal ‘Flames’ The type of fractals generated are known as ‘Flame Fractals’ and for the curious, I append a note about their structure, gleaned from the internet, at the end of this piece. Please don’t ask me to explain it! Where to download Apophysis: go to https://sourceforge.net/projects/apophysis/ Sorry Mac users but it’s only available for Windows. To see examples of fractal images I’ve generated using Apophysis, I’ve made an Issuu e-book and here’s the URL. https://issuu.com/fotopix/docs/ordering_kaos Getting Started There’s not a defined ‘follow this method workflow’ for generating interesting fractals. It’s really a matter of considerable experimentation and the accumulation of a knowledge-base about general principles: what the numerous presets tend to do and what various options allow. Infinite combinations of variables ensure there’s also a huge serendipity factor. I’ve included a few screen-grabs to help you. The screen-grabs are detailed and you may need to enlarge them for better viewing. Once Apophysis has loaded, it will provide a Random Batch of fractal patterns. Some will be appealing whilst many others will be less favourable. To generate another set, go to File > Random Batch (shortcut Ctrl+B). Screen-grab 1 Choose a fractal pattern from the batch and it will appear in the main window (Screen-grab 1). Depending upon the complexity of the fractal and the processing power of your computer, there will be a ‘wait time’ every time you change a parameter.

    Dr. ALSHIKH YOUSSEF Haiyan General features The peritoneum is a thin serous membrane Consisting of: 1- Parietal peritoneum -lines the ant. Abdominal wall and the pelvis 2- Visceral peritoneum - covers the viscera 3- Peritoneal cavity - the potential space between the parietal and visceral layer of peritoneum - in male, is a closed sac - but in the female, there is a communication with the exterior through the uterine tubes, the uterus, and the vagina ▪ Peritoneum cavity divided into Greater sac Lesser sac Communication between them by the epiploic foramen The peritoneum The peritoneal cavity is the largest one in the body. Divided into tow sac : .Greater sac; extends from diaphragm down to the pelvis. Lesser Sac .Lesser sac or omental bursa; lies behind the stomach. .Both cavities are interconnected through the epiploic foramen(winslow ). .In male : the peritoneum is a closed sac . .In female : the sac is not completely closed because it Greater Sac communicates with the exterior through the uterine tubes, uterus and vagina. Peritoneum in transverse section The relationship between viscera and peritoneum Intraperitoneal viscera viscera is almost totally covered with visceral peritoneum example, stomach, 1st & last inch of duodenum, jejunum, ileum, cecum, vermiform appendix, transverse and sigmoid colons, spleen and ovary Intraperitoneal viscera Interperitoneal viscera Retroperitoneal viscera Interperitoneal viscera Such organs are not completely wrapped by peritoneum one surface attached to the abdominal walls or other organs. Example liver, gallbladder, urinary bladder and uterus Upper part of the rectum, Ascending and Descending colon Retroperitoneal viscera some organs lie on the posterior abdominal wall Behind the peritoneum they are partially covered by peritoneum on their anterior surfaces only Example kidney, suprarenal gland, pancreas, upper 3rd of rectum duodenum, and ureter, aorta and I.V.C The Peritoneal Reflection The peritoneal reflection include: omentum, mesenteries, ligaments, folds, recesses, pouches and fossae.

    Apophysis :– An Intermediate User Guide By Carl Skepper (aka 2B2H) April 2006 Contents Introduction 3 Working with the Editor 4 Using my Metallica script 10 Falling in love with Julia (and Julia ‘n’) 15 Tiling (prepare to be disappointed) 24 Use of blur 31 Adding Colour to your flames 37 Introduction Welcome to my intermediate user guide to using the great freeware application called Apophysis , also affectionately known as ‘Apo’. I first downloaded this software on December 5 th 2005 and I have been hooked on it ever since. The variety of fractals it is able to produce is only limited by your creativity but saying that, your creativity amounts to nothing if you fail to persevere despite the lack of documentation out there. The definitive starter guides are those by Lance and for scripting, by Datagram. Links to both (and much more useful stuff) can be found at The Fractal Farm website : http://www.woosie.net/fracfan/viewtopic.php?t=15 These guides help you with the GUI and offer some basic advice on creating fractals. This guide is different. Together we will create specific flames so you can see how they are done. By doingthis I hope you will gain a better understandiing of Apo and use the knowledge to create your own fractal wonders ☺ It is not intended to teach you the basics of the GUI, those are covered in the docs linked at The Fractal Farm. It will show you a few tricks that you may not be aware of. I do not profess to be any kind of expert with the software.

  • Laparoscopic Surgical Anatomy of Calot`S Triangle Adnan Al Helli Laparoscopic Surgical Anatomy of Calot`S Triangle
    Laparoscopic Surgical Anatomy of Calot`s Triangle Adnan Al Helli Laparoscopic Surgical Anatomy of Calot`s Triangle Adnan Al Helli; CABS, Mohammad Al Taee**; CABS, Majid Al Khafaji**; CABS * Dept of Surgery, College of Medicine, University of Karbala, **Senior Surgeon in Hilla Teaching Hospital Abstract ntroduction: Calot`s triangle is an anatomical space in the subhepatic region contains the cystic duct and cystic artery. These structures are of normal arrangement and I configuration in about three quarters of people. Laparoscopic cholecystectomy now is the gold standard surgical procedure for the treatment of cholecystolithiasis but is associated with significant incidence of operative injuries. Recognition of the normal and variations of the surgical anatomy in this space is essential in order to reduce the incidence of these events. Aims: to start Iraqi data base, improve anatomy recognition and reduce laparoscopic complication. Method: Through a prospective observational study we identified the cystic artery and cystic duct characters within Calot`s triangle during Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy operations. Results: 200 cases, 96% females. Cystic artery; total single artery; 179, 89%, double cystic arteries; 21, 10.5%, normal configuration; 133, 66%, total artery anomalies; 67.33.5%. Cystic duct; normal ducts; 125/62.5%, total anomalies; 75/37.5% and other details. Discussion: the anatomy of Calot`s triangle is puzzling and surgeons should be aware of this fact. The published studies are of variable ranges, arterial variations are more frequent than ductal anomalies. Studies implementing Laparoscopic methodology sound the most accurate. The current study denotes higher incidences of normal cystic arteries and lower incidence of normal cystic duct compared to global ranges.
