namely, the study of regularitis of structure of a human skull and clarifying the morphological and functional features of various forms. Due to the complexity of its structure, the skull is the placesora large number of anatomic variations, anomalies and dysplasias. Facial bones are an important architectural part of the face, ensuring the perfection of its design fundamentals and uniqua individuality. Besides, they provide mechanical strength of the skull. By participating in the formation of cavities (orbit, nasal and oral), they are used for protection and normal functioning of the primary divisions of digestive, respiratory systems and sensory organs (sight, smell, taste). Fissures, foramens and channels which the cranial cavities have, allow the passage of the neurovascular bundles for the innervation of these organs. The structure of the maxilla and mandible and palatine bones represents the most pronounced signs of the evolution of the skull, characteristic of the skull of Homo sapiens and associated with the development of articulate speech, the development of the brain, the consumption of processed food. The study of the skull bones, their connections and relationships with blood vessels and nerves is necessary to understand the features of rendering proper medical care in case of disruption of their normal functioning. Skull lodges the brain, teeth and special senses like cochlear and vestibular apparatus, retina, olfactory mucous membrane, and taste buds. The weight of the brain is not felt as it is floating in the cerebrospinal fluid. Our personality, power of speech, attention, concentration, judgement, and intellect are because of the brain that we possess and its proper use, for our own good and for the good of the society as well. The skeleton of the head is called the skull. It consists of several bones that are joined together to form the cranium. The term skull also includes the 6 mandible or lower jaw, which is a separate bone. However, the two terms skull and cranium, are often used synonymously. The skullcap is formed by frontal, parietal, squamous temporal and a part of occipital bones, develop by intramembranous ossification, being a quicker one-stage process.

M.S Dept of anatomy SIMATS Saveetha dental college, Velappanchavadi Chennai-600095 India Running title: Types of suprameatal spines ABSTRACT: AIM: To identify the occurrence and types of suprameatal spines on either sides of the skull in the suprameatal triangle and to study their clinic implications. OBJECTIVE: To figure out the presence of suprameatal spines in the suprameatal triangle and to review the literature on anatomical and clinic aspects of suprameatal triangle. INTRODUCTION: Suprameatal triangle is present between the posterior wall of external acoustic meatus and posterior root of zygomatic process, in the temporal bone. It is also called as Macewen’s triangle. Suprameatal spine is seen below the upper limit of the orifice of the inner end of external acoustic meatus which is closed by tympanic membrane. It is also called as spine of Henle. RESULT: From the above conducted study, it can be seen that, when the suprameatal spines were evaluated according to its type and occurrence, the crest type of spine present was more than the triangle type. The crest type of spine was found to be 62.2% and the triangle type of spine was about 37.8% CONCLUSION: Thus, this study shows the prevalence of crest and triangle type spine in the dry skulls evaluated.

  • A 1810 Skull of Napoleon Army's Soldier: a Clinical–Anatomical
    Surgical and Radiologic Anatomy (2019) 41:1065–1069 https://doi.org/10.1007/s00276-019-02275-y ORIGINAL ARTICLE A 1810 skull of Napoleon army’s soldier: a clinical–anatomical correlation of steam gun trauma N. Benmoussa1,2 · F. Crampon3,4 · A. Fanous5 · P. Charlier1,6 Received: 5 March 2019 / Accepted: 22 June 2019 / Published online: 28 June 2019 © Springer-Verlag France SAS, part of Springer Nature 2019 Abstract Introduction In the following article, we are presenting a clinical observation of Baron Larrey. In 1804, Larrey was the inspector general of health, as well as the chief surgeon of the imperial Napoleonic Guard. He participated in all of Napoleon’s campaigns. A paleopathological study was performed on a skull from Dupuytren’s Museum (Paris) with a long metal stick in the head. We report here a clinical case as well as the autopsy description of this soldier’s skull following his death. We propose a diferent anatomical analysis of the skull, which allowed us to rectify what we believe to be an anatomical error and to propose varying hypotheses regarding the death of soldier Cros. Materials and methods The skull was examined, observed and described by standard paleopathology methods. Measure- ments of the lesion were performed with metric tools and expressed in centimeters. Historical research was made possible through the collaboration with the Museum of Medicine History-Paris Descartes University. Results Following the above detailed anatomical analysis of the path of the metal rod, we propose various possible lesions in soldier Cros due to the accident. At the inlet, the frontal sinuses could have been damaged.

ABSTRACT Background: Chronic maxillary sinusitis is one of the common ENT problems. Accessory maxillary ostium (AMO) has been postulated in many publications to play a role in the development of chronic maxillary sinusitis. AMO is found in the medial wall of maxillary sinus and located in the lateral wall of the nose. It’s been frequently identified in the routine nasal endoscopy. The variations in the location of AMO have been evaluated by nasal endoscopy in live subjects or through cadaver dissections by many authors. This live study is conducted to identify the prevalence of AMO during nasal endoscopic evaluation of chronic sinusitis patients.

  • Surgical Anatomy of the Juxtadural Ring Area
    Surgical anatomy of the juxtadural ring area Susumu Oikawa, M.D., Kazuhiko Kyoshima, M.D., and Shigeaki Kobayashi, M.D. Department of Neurosurgery, Shinshu University School of Medicine, Matsumoto, Japan Object. The authors report on the surgical anatomy of the juxtadural ring area of the internal carotid artery to add to the information available about this important structure. Methods. Twenty sides of cadaver specimens were used in this study. The plane of the dural ring was found to incline in the posteromedial direction. Medial inclination was measured at 21.8š on average against the horizontal line in the anteroposterior view on radiographic studies. Posterior inclination was measured at 20.3š against the planum sphenoidale in the lateral projection, and the medial edge of the dural ring was located 0.4 mm above the tuberculum sellae in the same projection. The lateral edge of the tuberculum sellae was located 1.4 mm below the superior border of the anterior clinoid process. The carotid cave was situated at the medial or posteromedial aspect of the dural ring; however, two of the 20 specimens showed no cave formation. The carotid cave contained the subarachnoid space in 13 sides, the arachnoid membrane only in three sides, and the extraarachnoid space in two sides. The authors propose that the marker of the medial side of the dural ring, which is more proximal than the lateral, is the tuberculum sellae in the lateral view on radiographic studies. In the medial aspect of the dural ring the intradural space can be situated below the level of the tuberculum sellae because of the existence of the carotid cave.

  • Morphometric Analysis of Opticochiasmatic Apparatus in South Indian Human Dry Skulls V
    Research Article Morphometric analysis of opticochiasmatic apparatus in South Indian human dry skulls V. T. Thamaraiselvi, Dinesh Premavathy* ABSTRACT Aim: This study aims to analyze the morphometry of opticochiasmatic apparatus in South Indian dry skulls. Introduction: Opticochiasmatic apparatus includes clinoid processes, sulcus chiasmaticus, hypophyseal fossa, and optic canal. Anatomically and clinically, this area is considered as very important and highly complicated area to approach in surgical conditions due to close association of anatomical structures such as optic and its vessels, hypophysis cerebri with infundibulum, cavernous sinuses. Materials and Methods: The study used dry skulls of South Indian populations and Vernier caliper for measurement. Results: According to the present study, the mean value of interanterior clinoid process and interposterior clinoid process is 18.25 mm and 12.53 mm. The mean of distances between anterior and posterior clinoid process on the right and left side is 13.41 mm and 13.55 mm, respectively. The mean of distance of the oblique axis between the right anterior clinoid and left posterior clinoid processes is 16.83 mm and for the distance of the oblique axis between the left anterior clinoid and right posterior clinoid process is 18.14 mm. The mean for the diameter of hypophyseal fossa and optic canal of the right and left side is 12.4 mm, 4.36 mm, and 4.31 mm, respectively. For the sulcus chiasmaticus is 14.92 mm. Conclusion: The present study thus concluded that the morphometric knowledge of opticochiasmatic apparatus is of utmost important in anthropological studies and operative surgeries. KEY WORDS: Clinoid process, Hypophyseal fossa, Sella turcica INTRODUCTION bone in the middle cranial cavity.

Abstract In the temporal bone, between the posterior wall of the external acoustic meatus and the posterior root of the zygomatic process is the area called the suprameatal triangle, suprameatal pit, mastoid fossa, foveolasuprameatica, or Mac Ewen's triangle, through which an instrument may be pushed into the mastoid antrum..In the adult, the antrum lies approximately 1.5 to 2 cm deep to the suprameatal triangle. This is an important landmark when performing a cortical mastoidectomy. The triangle lies deep to the cymba conchae.The sex determination of unknown human skulls can be evaluated by using the measurement of the area formed by the xerographic projection of 3craniometric points related to the mastoid process: the porion, asterion, and mastoidale points. Keywords: MacEwen's triangle,mastoidectomy,suprameatal spine,Mastoid antrum ,sex determination,zygomatic process,mastoid process. Introduction MacEwen's triangle is a very important surgical landmark for the mastoid antrum or the largest mastoid air cell.[9] It is also known as Suprameatal triangle or Mastoid fossa.[4] The suprameataltrigone plays a big role in the aspect of clinics.
