RELATION OF MACULAR AND OTHER HOLES TO THE INSERTION OF THE INFERIOR OBLIQUE* WITH A NOTE ON THE TOPOGRAPHY OF THE POSTERIOR SURFACE OF THE GLOBE BY ANWAR EL MASSRI Faculty ofMedicine, Ein-Shams University, Cairo THE macular region, like the peripheral retina, is liable to cystic degeneration, especially in high myopes and in old people. This gives a honeycomb appearance and on rupture of the cyst or cysts by slight or severe trauma a depression is produced which may be confined to the inner layers of the retina or form a macular hole. A hole may occur in a normal macula immediately after trauma or after an interval during which probably cystic degeneration has developed. A macular hole may also be formed in the process of retrac- tion of the vitreous if the macula is previously diseased or affected. These holes are always round or oval with a punched appearance. Multiple holes are rare. They may or may not be accompanied by retinal detachment. copyright. It seems that relationship exists between the formation of a macular hole and the contraction of the inferior oblique muscle (el Massri, 1958). In about five out of nine cases, the hole is accompanied by a peripheral tear or an area of degeneration at about 7 to 8 o'clock in the right eye or 4 to 5 o'clock in the left. At operation the peripheral tears were seen to be situated of the insertion of over the lateral end the inferior oblique.

Cardiology, Foundation Don Carlo Gnocchi, Milan, ITA 2. Osteopathy, French-Italian School of Osteopathy, Pisa, ITA 3. Radiology, IRCCS Fondazione Don Carlo Gnocchi Onlus, Milan, ITA Corresponding author: Bruno Bordoni, [email protected] Abstract The tentorium cerebelli is a meningeal portion in relation to the skull, the nervous system, and the cervical tract. In this second part, the article discusses the systematic tentorial relationships, such as the central and cervical neurological connections, the venous circulation and highlights possible clinical alterations that could cause pain. To understand the function of anatomy, we should always remember that every area of the human body is never a segment, but a functional continuum. Categories: Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation, Anatomy, Osteopathic Medicine Keywords: tentorium cerebelli, fascia, pain, venous circulation, neurological connections, cranio Introduction And Background Cervical neurological connections The ansa cervicalis characterizes the first cervical roots and connects all anterior cervical nerve exits with the inferior floor of the oral cavity, the trigeminal system, the respiratory control system, and the sympathetic system. The descending branch of the hypoglossal nerve anastomoses with C1, forming the ansa hypoglossi or ansa cervicalis superior [1]. The inferior root of the ansa cervicalis, also known as descendens cervicalis, is formed by ascendant fibers from spinal nerves C2-C3 and occasionally fibers C4, lying anteriorly to the common carotid artery (it passes laterally or medially to the internal jugular vein upon anatomical variations) [1].

There are four rectus and two oblique muscles attached to each eye. The rectus muscles originate from the Annulus of Zinn, which encircles the optic foramen and medial portion of the superior orbital fissure (Fig. 1.1). These muscles pass forward in the orbit and gradually diverge to form the orbital muscle cone. By means of a tendon, the muscles insert into the sclera anterior to the rotation centre of the globe (Fig. 1.2). The extraocular muscles are striated muscles. They contain slow fibres, which produce a graded contracture on the exterior surface, and fast fibres, which produce rapid movements on the interior surface adjacent to the globe. The slow fibres con- tain a high content of mitochondria and oxidative enzymes. The fast fibres contain high amounts of glycogen and glycolytic enzymes and less oxidative enzymes than the slow fibres. The global layer of the extraocular muscles contains palisade end- ings in the myotendonous junctions, which are believed to act as sensory receptors. Signals from the palisade endings passing to the central nervous system may serve to maintain muscle tension (Ruskell 1999, Donaldson 2000).

This study offers further evidence that the Wellcome figures are, indeed, initial sketch models for not one, but two, sets of models at La Specola: the life-sized series already mentioned, and a smaller set about 75 cms. high; and that the source for all three sets of models is the German anatomist, Bernard Siegfried Albinus (1697-1770), and his artist/engraver, Jan Wandelaer (1690-1759). The seven standing male figures of the Wellcome Collection, hereinafter identified as the "'W" models, measuring only 85 cms. high, depict the human body in various stages of dissection. This study concentrates only on the four "W" models which show bones, muscles, and tendons, and on the similar Florentine models (Table I). The other three "W" models, showing arteries and veins, are omitted from this study as the normal variability of these structures does not lend itself to a valid comparative study.

Aithal1 Received: 3 September 2018 / Accepted: 23 February 2019 / Published online: 7 March 2019 © Springer-Verlag France SAS, part of Springer Nature 2019 Abstract Congenital variations of extraocular muscles are rare. We report a double-bellied superior rectus muscle, observed in an adult male cadaver aged 70 years. The superior rectus muscle had two equal-sized bellies, which took separate origins from the common tendinous ring and united to form a common belly 1 cm before the insertion. Due to the duplication, the muscle extended laterally beyond the levator palpebrae superioris. Both its bellies were supplied by oculomotor nerve. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report on doubling of the belly of the superior rectus muscle. Keywords Extraocular · Orbit · Superior rectus muscle · Eye movement · Strabismus Introduction Case report Voluntary movements of the eyeball are performed by six During dissection classes for the first-year medical students, extraocular muscles, namely superior rectus muscle, the we observed a unique variation in the right orbit of an adult inferior rectus muscle, medial rectus muscle, lateral rectus male cadaver aged 70 years.

  • A- and V-Patterns and Oblique Muscle Overaction A- and V-Patterns
    18 A- and V-Patterns and Oblique Muscle Overaction A- and V-Patterns Clinical Features Etiology Management with Horizontal Rectus Muscle Offsets Inferior Oblique Overaction Etiology Clinical Features Differential Diagnosis Management Superior Oblique Overaction Etiology Clinical Features Differential Diagnosis Management Superior Oblique Weakening Procedures Complications A- and V-patterns of strabismus are changes in the horizontal deviation as the patient looks up and down. They are usually associated with oblique dysfunction, either overaction or paresis. Primary oblique muscle overaction is when an oblique muscle is too strong for its antagonist and there is no known cause. Secondary oblique overaction is caused by a paresis of the antagonist muscle. A superior oblique paresis results in inferior oblique overaction, and inferior oblique paresis results in superior oblique overaction. This chapter covers the management of A- and V- patterns and primary oblique muscle overaction. A- and V-Patterns CLINICAL FEATURES A-patterns are defined as increasing divergence in down gaze (>10 prism diopters [PD]), whereas Vpatterns are increased divergence (>15 prism diopters) in up gaze. The type of A- or V-pattern helps identify the cause. Superior oblique paresis produces a V-pattern, arrow subtype, with convergence in down gaze. The arrow pattern subtype indicates a lack of abduction in down gaze, the field of action of the superior oblique muscles. Inferior oblique overaction, on the other hand, has a V-pattern, Y subtype, with increased abduction in up gaze. The Y-pattern occurs because the field of action of the inferior oblique muscles is up gaze and they are abductors. Lambda subtype is typically associated with superior oblique overaction, with increased abduction in down gaze, because the field of action is in down gaze.
