  • A New Radiological Classification for the Risk Assessment of Anterior Skull
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN A new radiological classifcation for the risk assessment of anterior skull base injury in endoscopic sinus surgery Baharudin Abdullah 1*, Shiun Chuen Chew1, Mohd Ezane Aziz2, Norasnieda Md Shukri1, Salina Husain3, Sng Weirong Joshua4, De Yun Wang4 & Kornkiat Snidvongs5 Keros and Gera classifcations are widely used to assess the risk of skull base injury during endoscopic sinus surgery. Although, both classifcations are useful preoperatively to stratify risk of patients going for surgery, it is not practical to measure the respective lengths during surgery. In this study, we aimed to propose a new radiological classifcation (Thailand-Malaysia-Singapore (TMS)) to assess the anatomical risk of anterior skull base injury using the orbital foor (OF) as a reference. A total of 150 computed tomography images of paranasal sinuses (300 sides) were reviewed. The TMS classifcation was categorized into 3 types by measuring OF to cribriform plate and OF to ethmoid roof. Most patients were classifed as TMS type 1, Keros type 2 and Gera class II, followed by patients classifed as TMS type 3, Keros type 1 and Gera class 1. TMS has signifcant correlation with Keros classifcation (p < 0.05). There was no signifcant correlation between Keros and Gera classifcations (p = 0.33) and between TMS and Gera classifcations (p = 0.80). The TMS classifcation has potential to be used for risk assessment of skull base injury among patients undergoing ESS. It serves as an additional assessment besides the Keros and Gera classifcations. Endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS) has an overall complication rate of 0.5% with the specifc complications of cere- brospinal fuid leak, orbital injury, haemorrhage requiring surgery, blood transfusion and toxic shock syndrome at 0.09%, 0.09%, 0.10%, 0.18%, and 0.02%, respectively1.

BAşKAYA, M.D.1 1Department of Neurological Surgery, University of Wisconsin–Madison, Wisconsin; and 2Department of Neurological Surgery, University of Miami, Florida Object. Although craniofacial approaches to the midline skull base have been defined and surgical results have been published, clear descriptions of these complex approaches in a step-wise manner are lacking. The objective of this study is to demonstrate the surgical technique of craniofacial approaches based on Barrow classification (Levels I–III) and to study the microsurgical anatomy pertinent to these complex craniofacial approaches. Methods. Ten adult cadaveric heads perfused with colored silicone and 24 dry human skulls were used to study the microsurgical anatomy and to demonstrate craniofacial approaches in a step-wise manner. In addition to cadaveric studies, case illustrations of anterior skull base meningiomas were presented to demonstrate the clinical application of the first 3 (Levels I–III) approaches. Results. Cadaveric head dissection was performed in 10 heads using craniofacial approaches. Ethmoid and sphe- noid sinuses, cribriform plate, orbit, planum sphenoidale, clivus, sellar, and parasellar regions were shown at Levels I, II, and III. In 24 human dry skulls (48 sides), a supraorbital notch (85.4%) was observed more frequently than the supraorbital foramen (14.6%).

  • The Frontal Bone in the Genus Homo: a Survey of Functional and Phylogenetic Sources of Variation
    doi 10.4436/jass.90008 JASs Invited Reviews Journal of Anthropological Sciences Vol. 90 (2012), pp. 59-80 The frontal bone in the genus Homo: a survey of functional and phylogenetic sources of variation Sheela Athreya Department of Anthropology, Texas A&M University, MS 4352 TAMU, College Station, TX 77843, USA e-mail: [email protected] Summary - The frontal bone is a useful aspect of the craniofacial skeleton to study in physical anthropology because it contains several characters considered to be important for both population- and species-level distinctions. These include forehead (frontal squama) inclination and supraorbital morphology. Because it lies at the interface between the anterior neurocranium and the upper face, it is also informative about the evolution of both of these regions of the skull. Previous research on frontal bone morphology can be grouped into two broad categories. One set of studies explored the relationship between craniofacial structure and function in an attempt to explain biological sources of variation in the torus development of various extant primate species, including modern humans. The second group of studies examined geographical and temporal patterns of variation in frontal morphology to make inferences about the phylogenetic relationship relationships among fossil hominin populations in the Pleistocene. This paper offers a review of both phylogenetic and functional studies of variation in frontal bone morphology, and synthesizes them to offer a comprehensive understanding of what the frontal bone can tell us about bio-behavioral and evolutionary differences both among extant and extinct members of the genusHomo . Keywords - Craniofacial variation, Browridge, Supraorbital torus, Pleistocene Homo. Introduction the larger picture of evolutionary change in the Since the earliest days of paleoanthropol- natural world.

    Folia Morphol. Vol. 67, No. 2, pp. 111–119 Copyright © 2008 Via Medica O R I G I N A L A R T I C L E ISSN 0015–5659 www.fm.viamedica.pl Topographical anatomy and measurements of selected parameters of the rat temporal bone J. Wysocki Clinic of Otolaryngology, Medical Faculty No. 2, Medical University of Warsaw, Kajetany, Poland Institute of Physiology and Pathology of Hearing, Warsaw, Poland [Received 22 October 2008; Accepted 22 November 2008] On the basis of dissection of 24 bones of 12 black rats a systematic anatomical description was made and measurements of selected size parameters of the tem- poral bone were taken. Besides the main air space in the middle ear, the tym- panic bulla, there are also additional air cells, namely the anterior and posterior epitympanic recesses, containing the head of the malleus and the body of the incus. On the side of the epitympanic recesses the following are easily accessi- ble: the malleus head and the core of the incus, the superior and lateral semicir- cular canals and the facial nerve. On the side of the ventral tympanic bulla it is easy access to both windows and the cochlea. The semicircular canals are rela- tively large, the lateral canal being the largest and the posterior the smallest. The length of the spiral canal of the cochlea does not exceed 11 mm. It is worth mentioning that both the vertical and horizontal dimensions of the scala vestibuli and scala tympani do not even exceed 0.7 mm in the basal turn, and are signif- icantly decreased to tenths of a millimetre in further turns.
