The Morphometric Study of Occurrence and Variations of Foramen Ovale S
Research Article The morphometric study of occurrence and variations of foramen ovale S. Ajrish George*, M. S. Thenmozhi ABSTRACT Background: Foramen vale is one of the important foramina present in the sphenoid bone. Anatomically it is located in the greater wing of the sphenoid bone. The foramen ovale is situated posterolateral to the foramen rotundum and anteromedial to the foramen spinosum. The foramen spinosum is present posterior to the foramen ovale. The carotid canal is present posterior and medial to the foramen spinosum and the foramen rotundum is present anterior to the foramen ovale. The structures which pass through the foramen ovale are the mandibular nerve, emissary vein, accessory middle meningeal artery, and lesser petrosal nerve. The sphenoid bone has a body, a pair of greater wing, pair of lesser wing, pair of lateral pterygoid plate, and a pair of medial pterygoid plate. Aim: The study involves the assessment of any additional features in foramen ovale in dry South Indian skulls. Materials and Methods: This study involves examination of dry adult skulls. First, the foramen ovale is located, and then it is carefully examined for presence of alterations and additional features, and is recorded following computing the data and analyzing it. Results: The maximum length of foramen ovale on the right and left was 10.1 mm, 4.3 mm, respectively. The minimum length of the foramen in right and left was 9.1 mm, 3.2 mm, respectively. The maximum width of foramen ovale on the right and left was 4.8 mm and 2.3 mm, respectively. The minimum width of the foramen in the right and the left side was 5.7 mm and 2.9 mm, respectively. -
A New Osteolepidid Fish From
Rea. West. Aust. MU8. 1985, 12(3): 361-377 ANew Osteolepidid Fish from the Upper Devonian Gogo Formation, Western Australia J.A. Long* Abstract A new osteolepidid crossopterygian, Gogonasus andrewsi gen. et sp. nov., is des cribed from a single fronto-ethmoidal shield and associated ethmosphenoid, from the Late Devonian (Frasnian) Gogo Formation, Western Australia. Gogonasus is is distinguished from other osteolepids by the shape and proportions of the fronto ethmoidal shield, absence of palatal fenestrae, well developed basipterygoid pro cesses and moderately broad parasphenoid. The family Osteolepididae is found to be paraphyletic, with Gogonasus being regarded as a plesiomorphic osteolepidid at a similar level of organisation to Thursius. Introduction Much has been published on the well-preserved Late Devonian fish fauna from the Gogo Formation, Western Australia, although to date all the papers describing fish have been on placoderms (Miles 1971; Miles and Dennis 1979; Dennis and Miles 1979-1983; Young 1984), palaeoniscoids (Gardiner 1973, 1984; Gardiner and Bartram 1977) or dipnoans (Miles 1977; Campbell and Barwick 1982a, 1982b, 1983, 1984a). This paper describes the only osteolepiform from the fauna (Gardiner and Miles 1975), a small snout with associated braincase, ANU 21885, housed in the Geology Department, Australian National University. The specimen, collected by the Australian National University on the 1967 Gogo Expedition, was prepared by Dr S.M. Andrews (Royal Scottish Museum) and later returned to the ANU. Onychodus is the only other crossopterygian in the fauna. In its proportions and palatal structure the new specimen provides some additional new points of the anatomy of osteolepiforms. Few Devonian crossopte rygians are known from Australia, and so the specimen is significant in having resemblances to typical Northern Hemisphere species. -

It is divided by one or more vertical septa that are often asymmetric. Because of its location and the relationships with important neurovascular and glandular structures, sphenoid sinus represents a great diagnostic and therapeutic challenge. Aim: The aim of this study was to assess the septation of the sphenoid sinus and relationship between the number and position of septa and internal carotid artery in the adult BH population. Participants and Methods: A retrospective study of the CT analysis of the paranasal sinuses in 200 patients (104 male, 96 female) were performed using Siemens Somatom Art with the following parameters: 130 mAs: 120 kV, Slice: 3 mm. -
Bedside Neuro-Otological Examination and Interpretation of Commonly
J Neurol Neurosurg Psychiatry: first published as 10.1136/jnnp.2004.054478 on 24 November 2004. Downloaded from BEDSIDE NEURO-OTOLOGICAL EXAMINATION AND INTERPRETATION iv32 OF COMMONLY USED INVESTIGATIONS RDavies J Neurol Neurosurg Psychiatry 2004;75(Suppl IV):iv32–iv44. doi: 10.1136/jnnp.2004.054478 he assessment of the patient with a neuro-otological problem is not a complex task if approached in a logical manner. It is best addressed by taking a comprehensive history, by a Tphysical examination that is directed towards detecting abnormalities of eye movements and abnormalities of gait, and also towards identifying any associated otological or neurological problems. This examination needs to be mindful of the factors that can compromise the value of the signs elicited, and the range of investigative techniques available. The majority of patients that present with neuro-otological symptoms do not have a space occupying lesion and the over reliance on imaging techniques is likely to miss more common conditions, such as benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV), or the failure to compensate following an acute unilateral labyrinthine event. The role of the neuro-otologist is to identify the site of the lesion, gather information that may lead to an aetiological diagnosis, and from there, to formulate a management plan. c BACKGROUND Balance is maintained through the integration at the brainstem level of information from the vestibular end organs, and the visual and proprioceptive sensory modalities. This processing takes place in the vestibular nuclei, with modulating influences from higher centres including the cerebellum, the extrapyramidal system, the cerebral cortex, and the contiguous reticular formation (fig 1). -

Accepted 19 October, 2011 The pelvic limb of the African giant pouched rat (Cricetomys gambianus) was studied using 12 adult rats of both sexes. Characteristics of the bones were studied by gross observation after preparation. Measurement of different segments of the Pelvic limb (articulated) was also taken. The bones of the pelvic limb were found to be generally similar in both structure and number to other rodent species that has been studied. Variation came only in the size of the bones and in the number of coccygeal bones. The ossa coxarum came (check) together through the pubic symphysis. The pelvis also presented a relatively wide obturator foramen. The femur presented three trochanters (major, minor and tertious) and fabellae on the medial and lateral condyles. The fibula runs down the length of the tibia, with an attachment proximally and fusion at the distal third thereby presenting an extensive interosseous space. The pes presented 8 tarsal and 5 metatarsal bones. Each of the metatarsal presented 3 phalanges except the first metatarsal which presented 2 phalanges. The number of bones on each pelvic limb was found to be 34 plus 19 sessamoid bones making a total number of 106 bones in the two hind limbs of this rat. -

Another important function that the bones have is to store materials such as calcium, phosphorus and lipids. Additionally, blood cells are synthesized in the red bone marrow to be released into the bloodstream. Bones serve as levers for the muscular system, working with them to produce movement and maintain posture. The human body contains 2 major kinds of bone tissue: compact and spongy. Compact bone (dense bone) is found on the outer surface of bones and serves as a place to absorb most of the stress on the bones. Spongy bone (cancellous tissue) is found on the inside of the compact bone layer. -
Musculo-Skeletal System
Musculo-Skeletal System (Trunk, Limbs, and Head) somite: ectoderm dermatome General Statements: myotome Bilaterally, paraxial mesoderm become sclerotome neural crest somites and somitomeres. (Somitomeres develop ros- intermediate tral to the notochord in the head. They are like somites, but mesoderm neural tube smaller and less distinctly organized.) The mesoderm somatic mesoderm comprising each somite differentiates into three notochord regions: endoderm aorta — dermatome (lateral) which migrates to form dermis of the skin coelom — sclerotome (medial) forms most of the splanchnic mesoderm axial skeleton (vertebrae, ribs, and base of the skull). Mesoderm Regions — myotome (middle) forms skeletal mus- culature. Individual adult muscles are produced by merger of adjacent myotomes. Note: Nerves make early connections with adjacent myotomes and dermatomes, establishing a segmental innervation pattern. As myotome/dermatome cells migrate to assume adult positions, the segmental nerve supply must follow along to maintain its connection to the innervation target. (Recurrent laryngeal & phrenic nerves travel long distances because their targets migrated far away.) Skin. Consists of dermis and epidermis. Epidermis, including hair follicles & glands, is derived from ectoderm. Neural crest cells migrate into epidermis and become melanocytes. (Other neural crest cells become tactile disc receptors.) Dermis arises from mesoderm (dermatomes of somites). Each dermatome forms a continu- ous area of skin innervated by one spinal nerve. Because adjacent dermatomes overlap, a locus of adult skin is formed by 2 or 3 dermatomes, and innervated by 2 or 3 spinal nerves. Muscle. Muscles develop from mesoderm, except for muscles of the iris which arise from optic cup ectoderm. Cardiac and smooth muscles originate from splanchnic mesoderm.
