Study of Wormian Bones on Dry Human Skull and Its Sexual Dimorphism in the Region of Andhra Pradesh
Original Research Article Study of Wormian Bones on Dry human skull and its sexual dimorphism in the region of Andhra Pradesh Shone Vasudeo Durge Assistant Professor, Dept. of Anatomy, Fathima Institute of Medical Sciences, Ramarajupalli, Andhra Pradesh Corresponding Author: E-mail: [email protected] Abstract This study was aimed at identifying the wormian bone and their overall incidence in respect to their number and location in the region of Andhra Pradesh. Overall incidence of wormian bones was more in female (47.72%) than in male skulls (41.66%). They occurred more frequently at lambdoid suture (38%). Wormian bones along the coronal suture, Bregma and Asterion were seen only in male skulls, while intra-orbital wormian bones and wormian bones at Pterion were seen only in female skulls. This study concludes by stating that, there exists a moderate degree of sexual dimorphism among the wormian bones with respect to overall incidence, number and location. Keywords- Skull, Sexual dimorphism, Wormian bones, Lambda, Asterion. Background knowledge of WBs is important in the diagnosis of Wormian bones, also known as intra-sutural bones, these disorders (Cremin, Goodman, Spranger et al., are extra bone pieces that occur within a suture in the 1982). It was reported that their incidence is well suited cranium. These are irregular isolated bones that appear for comparative studies as an anthropological marker or in addition to the usual centers of ossification of the an indicator of population distance (Gumusburun, cranium and, although unusual, are not rare. They occur Sevim, Katkici et al., 1997). Their knowledge is of most frequently in the course of the lambdoid suture, interest to the human anatomy, physical anthropology which is more tortuous than other sutures. -
Morphological and Topographical Study of Wormian Bones in Cadaver Dry Skulls
Original article Morphological and topographical study of Wormian bones in cadaver dry skulls Murlimanju, BV.*, Prabhu, LV., Ashraf, CM., Kumar, CG., Rai, R. and Maheshwari, C. Department of Anatomy, Manipal University, Centre for Basic Sciences, Kasturba Medical College, Mangalore, India *E-mail: [email protected] Abstract Introduction: The Wormian bones are formations associated with insufficient rate of suture closure and regarded as epigenetic and hypostotic traits. It was reported that there exists racial variability among the incidence of these bones. In the present study, the aims were to find the incidence of Wormian bones in Indian skulls and to analyze them topographically. Material and methods: The study included 78 human adult dry skulls of Indian population which were obtained from the neuroanatomy laboratory of our institution. They were macroscopically observed for the incidence and topographical distribution of the Wormian bones. Results: The Wormian bones were observed in 57 skulls (73.1%) of our series. Remaining 21 skulls (26.9%) didn’t show these variant bones. They were observed at the lambdoid suture in 56.4% cases (44 skulls; 14-bilateral; 18-right side; 12-left side), at the asterion in 17.9% (14 skulls; 3-bilateral; 2-right side; 9-left side), at the pterion in 11.5% (9 skulls; 4-right side; 5-left side), at the coronal suture in 1.3% (only one skull) and at the sagittal suture in 1.3% cases (only one skull). Conclusion: The current study observed Wormian bones in 73.1% of the cases from Indian population. This incidence rate is slightly higher compared to other reports and may be due to racial variations. -

Morphology of the Pterion in Serbian Population

Morphology of the Pterion in Serbian Population Morfología del Pterion en Población Serbia Knezi Nikola1; Stojsic Dzunja Ljubica1; Adjic Ivan2; Maric Dusica1 & Pupovac Nikolina4 KNEZI, N.; STOJSIC, D. L.; ADJIC, I.; MARIC, D. & PUPOVAC, N. Morphology of the pterion in Serbian population. Int. J. Morphol., 38(4):820-824, 2020. SUMMARY: The pterion is a topographic point on the lateral aspect of the skull where frontal, sphenoid, parietal and temporal bones form the H or K shaped suture. This is an important surgical point for the lesions in anterior and middle cranial fossa. This study was performed on 50 dry skulls from Serbian adult individuals from Department of Anatomy, Faculty of Medicine in Novi Sad. The type of the pterion on both sides of each skull was determined and they are calcified in four types (sphenoparietal, frontotemporal, stellate and epipteric). The distance between the center of the pterion and defined anthropological landmarks were measured using the ImageJ software. Sphenoparietal type is predominant with 86 % in right side and 88 % in left side. In male skulls, the distance from the right pterion to the frontozygomatic suture is 39.89±3.85 mm and 39.67±4.61 mm from the left pterion to the frontozygomatic suture. In female skulls the distance is 37.38±6.38 mm on the right and 35.94±6.46 mm on the left. The shape and the localization of the pterion are important because it is an anatomical landmark and should be used in neurosurgery, traumatology and ophthalmology. -

Aurangabad, Maharashtra, India. ABSTRACT Introduction: The pterion corresponds to the site of anterolateral fontanelle of the neonatal skull which closes at third month after birth. In the pterional fractures the anterior and middle meningeal arterial ramus ruptures commonly which results in extradural hemorrhage. Pterional approach is most suitable and minimally invasive approach in neurosurgery. Materials and Methods: The present study was carried out on the pterion of 36 dry adult skulls of known sex from department of anatomy GMC Aurangabad Maharashtra. Results: The mean and standard deviation of the distance between the centre of pterion to various anatomical landmarks. The distance between Pterion- frontozygomatic (P-FZ) suture 29.81±4.42mm on right side, 29.81±4.07mm on left side; Pterion-Zygomatic arch (P-Z) 37.16±3.77mm on right side, 37.56±3.71mm on left side, Pterion-asterion (P-A) 89.73±6.16mm on right side, 89.46±6.35mm on left side; Pterion-external acoustic meatus (P- EAM) 53.40±7.28mm on right side, 53.57±6.73mm on left side, Pterion- Mastoid process (P-M) 80.35±3.44mm on right side, 80.96±3.79mm on left side and Pterion- Pterion (P-P) 194.54±16.39mm were measured. -

A Study on Sutural Morphology and Anatomical Position of Pterion
A STUDY ON SUTURAL MORPHOLOGY AND ANATOMICAL POSITION OF PTERION Varsha Shenoy, P. Saraswathi, T. Siva, D. Jagadeesh ijcrr Department of Anatomy, Saveetha Medical College and Hospital, Saveetha Vol 04 issue 09 University, Saveetha Nagar, Thandalam, Chennai, Tamil Nadu Category: Research Received on:21/03/12 Revised on:29/03/12 E-mail of Corresponding Author: [email protected] Accepted on:06/04/12 ABSTRACT Objective: Pterion is an interesting bony landmark on the lateral aspect of the skull. It is ‗H‘ shaped sutural confluence formed by the articulation of four bones: frontal, parietal, greater wing of sphenoid and squamous part of temporal bone. Pterional approach is most widely used in neurosurgery for a variety of lesions in the anterior and middle cranial fossae. Since previous studies have reported the racial difference in the pterional morphology, in the present study it was aimed to study the sutural morphology of pteria and also to locate it with respect to the frontozygomatic suture. Methods: Seventy five (50 male and 25 female) skulls were studied on both the sides to evaluate the sutural pattern of pteria. The distance between center of the pterion to frontozygomatic suture was measured on both the sides. Results and Conclusion: According to the present study Sphenoparietal pterion was the commonest (77.33%) finding and was followed in frequency by Epipteric type (21.33%) and Stellate type (1.33%). Frontotemporal pterion was not observed. Average distance between the center of pterion and frontozygomatic suture was found to be 2.95 cm. ____________________________________________________________________________________ Keywords: Pterion, Frontozygomatic suture, neuro-vascular disorders located in the anterior Burr-hole surgery, sutural bone, fontanelle, and middle cranial fossae. -
