  • Bilateral Anomalous Muscle in the Popliteal Fossa & Its Clinical
    International Journal of Anatomy and Research, Int J Anat Res 2014, Vol 2(4):614-16. ISSN 2321- 4287 Case Report DOI: 10.16965/ijar.2014.501 BILATERAL ANOMALOUS MUSCLE IN THE POPLITEAL FOSSA & ITS CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE Sowmya S *, Meenakshi Parthasarathi, Sharmada KL, Sujana M. Department of anatomy, Bangalore Medical College & Research Institute, Bangalore, India. ABSTRACT Muscle variation may occur due to genetic or developmental causes. Some variations may compromise the vascular, muscular or nervous system in the region. Bilateral muscle variation in popliteal fossa is very rare. In present study an instance of bilateral muscle variation in popliteal fossa, arising from different muscles like gastrocnemius and from biceps femoris is recorded. There is no report of such variations. These observations are rare of its kind because of bilateral asymmetrical presence and difference in the origins in different legs. This is the first report as for the literatures available. Clinical and functional importance of such variation is discussed with the morphological aspects of this anomalous muscle.

The following bony prominences can usually be palpated in the living subject (corresponding vertebral levels are given in brackets): •◊◊superior angle of the scapula (T2); •◊◊upper border of the manubrium sterni, the suprasternal notch (T2/3); •◊◊spine of the scapula (T3); •◊◊sternal angle (of Louis) — the transverse ridge at the manubrio-sternal junction (T4/5); •◊◊inferior angle of scapula (T8); •◊◊xiphisternal joint (T9); •◊◊lowest part of costal margin—10th rib (the subcostal line passes through L3). Note from Fig. 1 that the manubrium corresponds to the 3rd and 4th thoracic vertebrae and overlies the aortic arch, and that the sternum corre- sponds to the 5th to 8th vertebrae and neatly overlies the heart. Since the 1st and 12th ribs are difficult to feel, the ribs should be enu- merated from the 2nd costal cartilage, which articulates with the sternum at the angle of Louis. The spinous processes of all the thoracic vertebrae can be palpated in the midline posteriorly, but it should be remembered that the first spinous process that can be felt is that of C7 (the vertebra prominens). The position of the nipple varies considerably in the female, but in the male it usually lies in the 4th intercostal space about 4in (10cm) from the midline.

  • The Square Flap Technique for Burn Contractures: Clinical Experience and Analysis of Length Gain
    Annals of Burns and Fire Disasters - vol. XXXI - n. 4 - December 2018 THE SQUARE FLAP TECHNIQUE FOR BURN CONTRACTURES: CLINICAL EXPERIENCE AND ANALYSIS OF LENGTH GAIN DOUBLE LAMBEAU RHOMBOÏDE POUR BRIDE SÉQUELLAIRE DE BRÛ- LURE: EXPÉRIENCE PRATIQUE ET ANALYSE DE LA LONGUEUR GAGNÉE Hifny M.A. Department of Plastic Surgery, Faculty of Medicine, Qena University Hospital, South Valley University, Egypt SUMMARY. Post-burn contractures, affecting the joints especially, are demanding problems. Many surgical techniques have been designated for burn contracture release. The aim of this study is to investigate the efficiency of the square flap technique to release a post-burn scar contracture, and assess the post-operative length gain that can be achieved by simple mathematical calculation. In this study, sixteen patients with linear contracture bands were treated with the square flap tech- nique. The anatomical distribution of the contractures was: axilla, cubital fossa, flank, perineum and popliteal fossa. Scar maturity ranged from 4 months - 9 years. Square flap width and contracture band length before and immediately after surgery were recorded by simple mathematical calculation. Flap complication was assessed. Patient satisfaction was also assessed during the follow-up period. All square flaps were effective in lengthening the contracture bands. The length of the contracture that was released ranged from 2 to 6 cm. The gain in length provided with this technique ranged from 212 to 350%, average 247%, and adequate contracture release was achieved in all cases postoperatively. All square flaps healed uneventfully except for one (6%), which demonstrated limited epidermolysis that healed by secondary intention. The fol- low-up interval ranged from 6 months to 1.5 years.

  • Six Steps to the “Perfect” Lip Deborah S
    September 2012 1081 Volume 11 • Issue 9 Copyright © 2012 ORIGINAL ARTICLES Journal of Drugs in Dermatology SPECIAL TOPIC Six Steps to the “Perfect” Lip Deborah S. Sarnoff MD FAAD FACPa and Robert H. Gotkin MD FACSb,c aRonald O. Perelman Department of Dermatology, New York University School of Medicine, New York, NY bLenox Hill Hospital—Manhattan Eye, Ear & Throat Institute, New York, NY cNorth Shore—LIJ Health Systems, Manhasset, NY ABSTRACT Full lips have always been associated with youth and beauty. Because of this, lip enhancement is one of the most frequently re- quested procedures in a cosmetic practice. For novice injectors, we recommend hyaluronic acid (HA) as the filler of choice. There is no skin test required; it is an easily obtainable, “off-the-shelf” product that is natural feeling when skillfully implanted in the soft tissues. Hyaluronic acid is easily reversible with hyaluronidase and, therefore, has an excellent safety profile. While Restylane® is the only FDA-approved HA filler with a specific indication for lip augmentation, one can use the following HA products off-label: Juvéderm® Ultra, Juvéderm Ultra Plus, Juvéderm Ultra XC, Juvéderm Ultra PLUS XC, Restylane-L®, Perlane®, Perlane-L®, and Belotero®. We present our six steps to achieve aesthetically pleasing augmented lips. While there is no single prescription for a “perfect” lip, nor a “one size fits all” approach for lip augmentation, these 6 steps can be used as a basic template for achieving a natural look. For more comprehensive, global perioral rejuvenation, our 6-step technique can be combined with the injection of neuromodulating agents and fractional laser skin resurfacing during the same treatment session.

You examine the patient and find her to be alert but pale and sweaty, with breathing that is rapid and shallow. You see that she has distension of her right internal jugular vein visible to the jaw and neck. Her trachea is deviated 3 cm to the right of midline. She has tender contu- sions on her left anterior chest wall with minimal active bleeding over one of the ribs. During the brief period of your examination, the patient exhibits more respiratory distress, and her blood pressure begins to drop. You urgently insert a large-gauge needle into her left hemitho- rax and withdraw 20 cc of air. This results in immediate improvement in the patient’s breath- ing and blood pressure. Why does the patient have a distended internal jugular vein on the right side of her neck? Could this be related to a rapid drop in blood pressure? What is the clinical situation of this patient? Hint: As you read this chapter, note that knowledge of normal surface anatomy is vital to the FIGURE: In order to effectively administer medical treatment, it is imperative for a recognition of abnormal surface anatomy, and that the latter may be an easy clue to the pathol- physician to know the surface anatomy of each ogy lying deep within the body.
