The Neurocranium Forms the Cranial Cavity That Surrounds and Protects the Brain and Brainstem. the Neurocranium Is Formed from T Name: Wokoma Olobo Benebo Department: Medical Laboratory Science Course: ANA 208 Matric Number: 18/MHS06/055 Assignment 1. Discuss the differences between viscerocranium and neurocranium The neurocranium forms the cranial cavity that surrounds and protects the brain and brainstem. The neurocranium is formed from the occipital bone, two temporal bones, two parietal bones, the sphenoid, ethmoid and frontal bones; they are all joined together with sutures. The viscerocranium bones form the anterior and lower regions of the skull and include the mandible, which attaches through the only truly motile joint found in the skull. The facial skeleton contains the vomer, two nasal conchae, two nasal bones, two maxilla, the mandible, two palatine bones, two zygomatic bones, and two lacrimal bones. 2.

  • Study on Asterion and Presence of Sutural Bones in South Indian Dry Skull
    Mohammed Ahad et al /J. Pharm. Sci. & Res. Vol. 7(6), 2015, 390-392 Study on Asterion and Presence of Sutural Bones in South Indian Dry Skull Mohammed Ahad(1),Thenmozhi M.S.(2) 1)BDS 1st year, 2) HOD of Anatomy, Saveetha dental college and hospitals Abstract: Aim: To study morphological features of asterion and presence of sutural bones in posterior side of the 25 human skull. Objective: To know the detailed anatomical knowledge of sutural morphology of asterion and formation of sutural bone. Background: Asterion is the point on Norma lateralis where parietal, temporal and occipital bones meet. It has many neurosurgical importance so any variation during surgery cause damage to dural venous sinuses. Presence of sutural bones will complicate surgical orientation, so it is important to study about the formation of sutural bones and its pattern. Materials and methods: The study will be performed on 25 south Indian dry skull of unknown age and sex taken from the department of anatomy at Saveetha dental college and hospital ,Chennai. Reason: A Research on this topic will lead to the outcome of asterion position from various anatomical landmarks and incidence of sutural bone at posterior side of the skull. Keywords: asterion, sutural bones, surgical importance. INTRODUCTION: The asterion is the junction of the parietal, temporal and occipital bone. It is the surgical landmark to the transverse sinus location, which is of great importance in the surgical approaches to the posterior cranial fossa[1].The sutural morphology was classified into two types: Type 1 where a sutural bone was present and Type 2 where sutural bone was absent.

  • Pterion Formation in North Indian Population: an Anatomico-Clinical Study

Pterion Formation in North Indian Population: An Anatomico-Clinical Study Formación del Pterion en una Población del Norte de India: Un Estudio Anátomo-Clínico Seema* & Anupama Mahajan** SEEMA & MAHAJAN, A. Pterion formation in North Indian population: an anatomico-clinical study. Int. J. Morphol., 32(4):1444- 1448, 2014. SUMMARY: Pterion is a point of sutural confluence seen in the norma lateralis where frontal, parietal, temporal and sphenoid bones meet. This craniometric point is related to various structures in the cranial cavity like middle meningeal artery, anterior pole of insula and Broca's area. This study was done to find most common variation in its shape and presence of epipteric bones and to compare with other racial groups from previous study. Fifty adult human skulls of unknown sex taken from Department of Anatomy, Sri Guru Ram Das Institute of Medical Sciences and Rsearch, Vallah (Amritsar, India) were examined on both sides for the type and position of the pterion. Four types of pterion formation were noted. Sphenoparietal was observed in 89%, frontotemporal in 7%, stellate in 4% and epipteric in 12% of cases. The pterion was found to be 3.1±0.44 cm on the right side, 3.4±0.40 cm on the left side from the frontozygomatic suture and 4.1±0.45 cm on the right side and 4.4±0.32 cm on the left side from the centre of zygoma. These variations in the sutural morphology is comparable to other population. Its position is of interest to anthropologists, forensic pathologists and surgeons who deserve further investigation in population of different area.

  • Foramina, Fossa and Vacuities in the Skull and Lower Jaw of Mud Turtle, Trionyx Gangeticus (Cuv.) by D
    FORAMINA, FOSSA AND VACUITIES IN THE SKULL AND LOWER JAW OF MUD TURTLE, TRIONYX GANGETICUS (CUV.) BY D. K. MANSHARAMANI (Department of Zoology, ttolkar Science College, lndore) Received March 3, 1965 (Communicated by Dr. Benicharan Mahendra, F.A.SC.) As far as the author is aware, no work has been done on the skull of mud turtles specially the foramina, fossa and vacuities. I have therefore studied the cranial peculiarities of Trionyx gangeticus, with special reference to foramina, fossa and vacuities of the skull and lower jaw. Trionyx gangeticus, a monotypic, trionychid testudine, exhibits many foramina, fossa and vacuities in its skull, which is typically akinetic moni- mostylic and anapsidian. The latter condition undergoes partial modifi- cation in the shape of temporal region which reveals emargination. The temporal arch is formed by jugal and quadratojugal. The orbits are close to the anterior half separated by prefrontal on the dorsal side. The anterior nares are near the tip of the snout, bounded by prcunaxilla below and prefrontal above. The skull is oblong-swollen, nose convex-arched, forehead convex, upper jaw'with broad flat rugose alveolar plate, which is narrow in front and wide behind. It has three long posterior processes formed by supra- occipital in the middle and squamosals on either side. The premaxilla is extremely small, unpaired and does not reach the nasal cavity or the vomer. The maxillaries are correspondingly enlarged surrounding the choanae, which are separated by narrow vomer. The palatines form a broad deep concavity which is joined behind by long basi-sphenoid, which separates the long pterygoids from each other.

  • A 3D Stereotactic Atlas of the Adult Human Skull Base Wieslaw L
    Nowinski and Thaung Brain Inf. (2018) 5:1 https://doi.org/10.1186/s40708-018-0082-1 Brain Informatics ORIGINAL RESEARCH Open Access A 3D stereotactic atlas of the adult human skull base Wieslaw L. Nowinski1,2* and Thant S. L. Thaung3 Abstract Background: The skull base region is anatomically complex and poses surgical challenges. Although many textbooks describe this region illustrated well with drawings, scans and photographs, a complete, 3D, electronic, interactive, real- istic, fully segmented and labeled, and stereotactic atlas of the skull base has not yet been built. Our goal is to create a 3D electronic atlas of the adult human skull base along with interactive tools for structure manipulation, exploration, and quantifcation. Methods: Multiple in vivo 3/7 T MRI and high-resolution CT scans of the same normal, male head specimen have been acquired. From the scans, by employing dedicated tools and modeling techniques, 3D digital virtual models of the skull, brain, cranial nerves, intra- and extracranial vasculature have earlier been constructed. Integrating these models and developing a browser with dedicated interaction, the skull base atlas has been built. Results: This is the frst, to our best knowledge, truly 3D atlas of the adult human skull base that has been created, which includes a fully parcellated and labeled brain, skull, cranial nerves, and intra- and extracranial vasculature. Conclusion: This atlas is a useful aid in understanding and teaching spatial relationships of the skull base anatomy, a helpful tool to generate teaching materials, and a component of any skull base surgical simulator. Keywords: Skull base, Electronic atlas, Digital models, Skull, Brain, Stereotactic atlas 1 Introduction carotid arteries, among others.

To t~roughly comprehend these. dan­ gerous potentialities a knowledge of the anatomy of the skull and its ~ontents is essential.
