Dr. Ahmed Alsharef Farah 5 Sagittal view of orbit and facial bones. Dr. Ahmed Alsharef Farah 6 3D CT of oblique aspect of facial bones. Nasal Bones: • The two nasal bones form the bony bridge of the nose and articulate with four bones: - Frontal bone. - Ethmoid bones of the cranium. - The opposite nasal bone. - Maxilla. Dr. Ahmed Alsharef Farah 7 Dr. Ahmed Alsharef Farah 8 Coronal CT of nasal bones. Lacrimal Bones: • Posterior to the nasal bones and maxilla are the lacrimal bones, which are situated on the medial wall of each orbit. • The junction between the lacrimal bones and the maxillae forms the lacrimal groove, which accommodates the lacrimal sacs that are part of the drainage route for excess lacrimal fluid (tears). Dr. Ahmed Alsharef Farah 9 Dr. Ahmed Alsharef Farah 10 Sagittal view of orbit and facial bones. Palatine Bones: • The palatine bones are located in the posterior aspect of the nasal cavity between the maxilla and the pterygoid process of the sphenoid. • The palatine bones consist of a horizontal portion and a perpendicular portion. Dr. Ahmed Alsharef Farah 11 • The horizontal portion of the palatine bones joins anteriorly with the palatine process of the maxilla to form the hard palate. • The vertical portion extends to form a segment of the lateral wall of the nasal cavity and the medial wall of the orbit. Dr. Ahmed Alsharef Farah 12 Dr. Ahmed Alsharef Farah 13 Inferior view of facial bones and hard palate. Dr. Ahmed Alsharef Farah 14 Axial CT of hard palate. Maxillary Bones: • The largest immovable facial bones are the maxillary bones, which fuse at the midline to form a pointed process termed the anterior nasal spine. • An opening on the anterior aspect of the maxilla is the infraorbital foramen, which transmits the infraorbital nerve and blood vessels. Dr. Ahmed Alsharef Farah 15 • The maxillary bones contain the large maxillary sinuses and four processes: - Frontal process. - Zygomatic process. - Alveolar process. - Palatine process. Dr. Ahmed Alsharef Farah 16 Dr. Ahmed Alsharef Farah 17 Coronal CT of maxilla and zygoma. • The inferior border of the maxilla has several depressions that form the alveolar process, which accepts the roots of the teeth. • The palatine process of the maxilla extends posteriorly to form three fourths of the hard palate. The posterior one fourth of the hard palate is created by the horizontal portion of the palatine bones. Dr. Ahmed Alsharef Farah 18 Dr. Ahmed Alsharef Farah 19 Axial CT of alveolar process of maxilla. Zygomatic Bones: • The zygomatic bones (zygoma or malar) create the prominence of the cheek and contribute to the lateral portion of the bony orbit. • The temporal process of the zygomatic bone extends posteriorly to join the zygomatic process of the temporal bone to form the zygomatic arch. Dr. Ahmed Alsharef Farah 20 Dr. Ahmed Alsharef FarahAxial CT of facial bones. 21 Dr. Ahmed Alsharef Farah 22 Axial CT of facial bones and ethmoid sinuses. Inferior Nasal Conchae: • The inferior nasal conchae (inferior nasal turbinates) arise from the maxillary bones and project horizontally into the nasal cavity. Dr. Ahmed Alsharef Farah 23 Dr. Ahmed Alsharef FarahAxial CT of facial bones. 24 • These conchae in conjunction with the superior and middle nasal conchae of the ethmoid bone divide the nasal cavity into three openings or meati, termed: - Superior. - Middle. - inferior. Dr. Ahmed Alsharef Farah 25 Dr. Ahmed Alsharef Farah 26 Sagittal view of nasal meati. Dr. Ahmed AlsharefSagittal Farah CT reformat of nasal meati. 27 Vomer: • The vomer is an unpaired facial bone located on the midsagittal line. • The vomer forms the inferior portion of the bony nasal septum as it projects superiorly to articulate with the perpendicular plate of the ethmoid bone. Dr. Ahmed Alsharef Farah 28 Dr. Ahmed Alsharef Farah 29 Coronal CT of vomer. Mandible: • The largest facial bone is the mandible. • This bone is composed primarily of horizontal and vertical portions. • The angle created by the junction of these two portions is termed the gonion. Dr. Ahmed Alsharef Farah 30 • The curved horizontal portion, called the body, contains an alveolar process (similar to the maxilla) that receives the roots of the teeth of the lower jaw. • The mental foramina extend through the body of the mandible and allow passage of the mental artery and nerve. • The vertical portion of the mandible is called the ramus. Dr. Ahmed Alsharef Farah 31 Dr. Ahmed Alsharef Farah 32 Lateral view of mandible. Dr. Ahmed Alsharef Farah 33 3D CT of lateral aspect of mandible. Dr. Ahmed Alsharef Farah 34 Coronal CT of mandibular rami. • Each ramus has two processes at its superior portion: - Coronoid process. - Condyloid process (condyle). • They are separated by a concave surface called the mandibular notch. Dr. Ahmed Alsharef Farah 35 Dr. Ahmed Alsharef Farah 36 Lateral view of mandible. Dr. Ahmed Alsharef Farah 37 Axial CT of mandibular rami. Dr. Ahmed Alsharef Farah 38 Axial CT of mandibular condyles. • The coronoid process serves as an attachment site for the temporalis and masseter muscles. • The condyloid process articulates with the mandibular fossa of the temporal bone to form the temporomandibular joint (TMJ). Dr. Ahmed Alsharef Farah 39 Temporomandibular joint: • The temporomandibular joint (TMJ) is a modified hinge joint that allows for the necessary motions of mastication. Dr. Ahmed Alsharef Farah 40 Bony Anatomy: • The mandibular fossa and articular eminence of the temporal bone form the superior articulating surface for the mandibular condyloid process of mandible (condyle). • The articular eminence creates the anterior boundary of the joint, preventing the forward displacement of the mandibular condyle. Dr. Ahmed Alsharef Farah 41 Dr. AhmedLateral Alsharef Farahview of temporomandibular joint. 42 Dr. Ahmed Alsharef Farah 43 Sagittal CT reformat of temporomandibular joint. Articular Disk and Ligaments: • The articular disk, frequently called the meniscus, is shaped like a bowtie and is interposed between the mandibular condyle and fossa to act as a shock absorber during jaw movement. Dr. Ahmed Alsharef Farah 44 Dr. Ahmed Alsharef Farah 45 Sagittal, T1-weighted MRI of TMJ and articular disk. • The articular disk is attached to the medial and lateral surfaces of the condyle by the collateral ligaments. • Lateral stability is provided by the temporo- mandibular ligament (lateral ligament). • Additionally, this ligament restricts the posterior movement of the condyle and articular disk. Dr. Ahmed Alsharef Farah 46 Dr. AhmedCoronal Alsharef view Farah of TMJ and collateral ligaments. 47 Dr. Ahmed Alsharef Farah 48 Coronal, T1-weighted MRI of TMJ. Dr. AhmedSagittal Alsharef Farahview of TMJ and lateral ligament. 49 Muscles: • The cooperative actions of four muscles located on each side of the TMJ provide the movement of the mandible and are collectively referred to as the muscles of mastication. Dr. Ahmed Alsharef Farah 50 • The fan-shaped temporalis muscle originates on the temporal fossa, inserts on the coronoid process of the mandible, and elevates the mandible. • The masseter muscle is the strongest muscle of the jaw, arising from the zygomatic arch and inserting on the ramus and angle of the mandible. Its actions include elevation of the mandible. Dr. Ahmed Alsharef Farah 51 Dr. Ahmed Alsharef FarahMuscles of mastication. 52 Dr. Ahmed Alsharef Farah 53 Coronal, T1-weighted MRI of muscles of mastication. • The pterygoid muscles (medial and lateral) originate from the pterygoid processes of the sphenoid bone and insert on the angle of the mandible and condylar process, respectively. • The medial pterygoid muscle acts to close the jaw, whereas the lateral pterygoid muscle opens the jaw and protrudes and moves the mandible from side to side.

Dr. Ahmed Alsharef Farah 57 Axial CT of TMJ and muscles of mastication. Paranasal sinuses Dr. Ahmed Alsharef Farah 58 Paranasal sinuses: • The paranasal sinuses are air-containing cavities within the facial bones and skull that communicate with the nasal cavity. Dr. Ahmed Alsharef Farah 59 • The sinuses are named after the bones in which they originate: - Ethmoid. - Maxillary. - Sphenoid. - Frontal. Dr. Ahmed Alsharef Farah 60 Dr. Ahmed Alsharef Farah 61 Anterior view of paranasal sinuses. Dr. Ahmed Alsharef Farah 62 Lateral view of paranasal sinuses. Ethmoid sinuses: • The ethmoid sinuses are contained within the lateral masses (labyrinths) of the ethmoid bone. • The Ethmoid sinuses are divided into anterior and posterior groups by the basal lamella of the middle conchae (turbinate). Dr. Ahmed Alsharef Farah 63 Dr. Ahmed Alsharef Farah 64 Axial CT of sphenoid and ethmoid sinuses. Dr. Ahmed Alsharef Farah 65 Coronal CT of ethmoid and maxillary sinuses.

  • Is the Skeleton Male Or Female? the Pelvis Tells the Story
    Activity: Is the Skeleton Male or Female? The pelvis tells the story. Distinct features adapted for childbearing distinguish adult females from males. Other bones and the skull also have features that can indicate sex, though less reliably. In young children, these sex-related features are less obvious and more difficult to interpret. Subtle sex differences are detectable in younger skeletons, but they become more defined following puberty and sexual maturation. What are the differences? Compare the two illustrations below in Figure 1. Female Pelvic Bones Male Pelvic Bones Broader sciatic notch Narrower sciatic notch Raised auricular surface Flat auricular surface Figure 1.

Simple Summary: The small size of the feline mandible makes its manipulation difficult when fixing dislocations of the temporomandibular joint or mandibular fractures. In both cases, non-invasive techniques should be considered first. When not possible, fracture repair with internal fixation using bone plates would be the best option. Simple jaw fractures should be repaired first, and caudal to rostral. In addition, a ventral approach makes the bone fragments exposure and its manipulation easier. However, the cat mandible has little space to safely place the bone plate screws without damaging the tooth roots and/or the mandibular blood and nervous supply. As a consequence, we propose a conceptual model of a mandibular prosthesis that would provide biomechanical Citation: Lombardero, M.; stabilization, avoiding any unintended (iatrogenic) damage to those structures.

  • Perinate and Eggs of a Giant Caenagnathid Dinosaur from the Late Cretaceous of Central China
    ARTICLE Received 29 Jul 2016 | Accepted 15 Feb 2017 | Published 9 May 2017 DOI: 10.1038/ncomms14952 OPEN Perinate and eggs of a giant caenagnathid dinosaur from the Late Cretaceous of central China Hanyong Pu1, Darla K. Zelenitsky2, Junchang Lu¨3, Philip J. Currie4, Kenneth Carpenter5,LiXu1, Eva B. Koppelhus4, Songhai Jia1, Le Xiao1, Huali Chuang1, Tianran Li1, Martin Kundra´t6 & Caizhi Shen3 The abundance of dinosaur eggs in Upper Cretaceous strata of Henan Province, China led to the collection and export of countless such fossils. One of these specimens, recently repatriated to China, is a partial clutch of large dinosaur eggs (Macroelongatoolithus) with a closely associated small theropod skeleton. Here we identify the specimen as an embryo and eggs of a new, large caenagnathid oviraptorosaur, Beibeilong sinensis. This specimen is the first known association between skeletal remains and eggs of caenagnathids. Caenagnathids and oviraptorids share similarities in their eggs and clutches, although the eggs of Beibeilong are significantly larger than those of oviraptorids and indicate an adult body size comparable to a gigantic caenagnathid. An abundance of Macroelongatoolithus eggs reported from Asia and North America contrasts with the dearth of giant caenagnathid skeletal remains. Regardless, the large caenagnathid-Macroelongatoolithus association revealed here suggests these dinosaurs were relatively common during the early Late Cretaceous. 1 Henan Geological Museum, Zhengzhou 450016, China. 2 Department of Geoscience, University of Calgary, Calgary, Alberta, Canada T2N 1N4. 3 Institute of Geology, Chinese Academy of Geological Sciences, Beijing 100037, China. 4 Department of Biological Sciences, University of Alberta, Edmonton, Alberta, Canada T6G 2E9. 5 Prehistoric Museum, Utah State University, 155 East Main Street, Price, Utah 84501, USA.

  • A New Caenagnathid Dinosaur from the Upper Cretaceous Wangshi
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN A new caenagnathid dinosaur from the Upper Cretaceous Wangshi Group of Shandong, China, with Received: 12 October 2017 Accepted: 7 March 2018 comments on size variation among Published: xx xx xxxx oviraptorosaurs Yilun Yu1, Kebai Wang2, Shuqing Chen2, Corwin Sullivan3,4, Shuo Wang 5,6, Peiye Wang2 & Xing Xu7 The bone-beds of the Upper Cretaceous Wangshi Group in Zhucheng, Shandong, China are rich in fossil remains of the gigantic hadrosaurid Shantungosaurus. Here we report a new oviraptorosaur, Anomalipes zhaoi gen. et sp. nov., based on a recently collected specimen comprising a partial left hindlimb from the Kugou Locality in Zhucheng. This specimen’s systematic position was assessed by three numerical cladistic analyses based on recently published theropod phylogenetic datasets, with the inclusion of several new characters. Anomalipes zhaoi difers from other known caenagnathids in having a unique combination of features: femoral head anteroposteriorly narrow and with signifcant posterior orientation; accessory trochanter low and confuent with lesser trochanter; lateral ridge present on femoral lateral surface; weak fourth trochanter present; metatarsal III with triangular proximal articular surface, prominent anterior fange near proximal end, highly asymmetrical hemicondyles, and longitudinal groove on distal articular surface; and ungual of pedal digit II with lateral collateral groove deeper and more dorsally located than medial groove. The holotype of Anomalipes zhaoi is smaller than is typical for Caenagnathidae but larger than is typical for the other major oviraptorosaurian subclade, Oviraptoridae. Size comparisons among oviraptorisaurians show that the Caenagnathidae vary much more widely in size than the Oviraptoridae. Oviraptorosauria is a clade of maniraptoran theropod dinosaurs characterized by a short, high skull, long neck and short tail.

    Ossification Defects and Craniofacial Morphology In Incomplete Forms of Mandibulofacial Dysostosis A Description of Two Dry Skulls ERIK DAHL, D.D.S., DR. ODONT. ARNE BJORK, D.D.S., ODONT. DR. Copenhagen, Denmark The morphology of two East Indian dry skulls exhibiting anomalies which were suggested to represent incomplete forms of mandibulofacial dysostosis is described. Obvious although minor ossification anomalies were found localized to the temporal, sphenoid, the zygomatic, the maxillary and the mandibular bones. The observations substantiate the concept of the regional and bilateral nature of this malformation syndrome. Bilateral orbital deviations, hypoplasia of the malar bones, and incomplete zygomatic arches appear to be hard tissue aberrations which may be helpful in exami- nation for subclinical carrier status. Changes in mandibular morphology seem to be less distinguishing features in incomplete or abortive types of mandibulofacial dysostosis.

  • Lab Manual Axial Skeleton Atla
    1 PRE-LAB EXERCISES When studying the skeletal system, the bones are often sorted into two broad categories: the axial skeleton and the appendicular skeleton. This lab focuses on the axial skeleton, which consists of the bones that form the axis of the body. The axial skeleton includes bones in the skull, vertebrae, and thoracic cage, as well as the auditory ossicles and hyoid bone. In addition to learning about all the bones of the axial skeleton, it is also important to identify some significant bone markings. Bone markings can have many shapes, including holes, round or sharp projections, and shallow or deep valleys, among others. These markings on the bones serve many purposes, including forming attachments to other bones or muscles and allowing passage of a blood vessel or nerve. It is helpful to understand the meanings of some of the more common bone marking terms.
