  • A New Caenagnathid Dinosaur from the Upper Cretaceous Wangshi
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN A new caenagnathid dinosaur from the Upper Cretaceous Wangshi Group of Shandong, China, with Received: 12 October 2017 Accepted: 7 March 2018 comments on size variation among Published: xx xx xxxx oviraptorosaurs Yilun Yu1, Kebai Wang2, Shuqing Chen2, Corwin Sullivan3,4, Shuo Wang 5,6, Peiye Wang2 & Xing Xu7 The bone-beds of the Upper Cretaceous Wangshi Group in Zhucheng, Shandong, China are rich in fossil remains of the gigantic hadrosaurid Shantungosaurus. Here we report a new oviraptorosaur, Anomalipes zhaoi gen. et sp. nov., based on a recently collected specimen comprising a partial left hindlimb from the Kugou Locality in Zhucheng. This specimen’s systematic position was assessed by three numerical cladistic analyses based on recently published theropod phylogenetic datasets, with the inclusion of several new characters. Anomalipes zhaoi difers from other known caenagnathids in having a unique combination of features: femoral head anteroposteriorly narrow and with signifcant posterior orientation; accessory trochanter low and confuent with lesser trochanter; lateral ridge present on femoral lateral surface; weak fourth trochanter present; metatarsal III with triangular proximal articular surface, prominent anterior fange near proximal end, highly asymmetrical hemicondyles, and longitudinal groove on distal articular surface; and ungual of pedal digit II with lateral collateral groove deeper and more dorsally located than medial groove. The holotype of Anomalipes zhaoi is smaller than is typical for Caenagnathidae but larger than is typical for the other major oviraptorosaurian subclade, Oviraptoridae. Size comparisons among oviraptorisaurians show that the Caenagnathidae vary much more widely in size than the Oviraptoridae. Oviraptorosauria is a clade of maniraptoran theropod dinosaurs characterized by a short, high skull, long neck and short tail.

  • Approach to the Anterior Pelvis (Enneking Type III Resection) Bruno Fuchs, MD Phd & Franklin H.Sim, MD Indication 1
    Approach to the Anterior Pelvis (Enneking Type III Resection) Bruno Fuchs, MD PhD & Franklin H.Sim, MD Indication 1. Tumors of the pubis 2. part of internal and external hemipelvectomy 3. pelvic fractures Technique 1. Positioning: Type III resections involve the excision of a portion of the symphysis or the whole pubis from the pubic symphysis to the lateral margin of the obturator foramen. The best position for these patients is the lithotomy or supine position. The patient is widely prepared and draped in the lithotomy position with the affected leg free to allow manipulation during the procedure. This allows the hip to be flexed, adducted, and externally rotated to facilitate exposure. 2. Landmarks: One should palpate the ASIS, the symphysis with the pubic tubercles, and the ischial tuberosity. 3. Incision: The incision may be Pfannenstiel like with vertical limbs set laterally along the horizontal incision depending on whether the pubic bones on both sides are resected or not. Alternatively, if only one side is resected, a curved incision following the root of the thigh may be used. This incision begins below the inguinal ligament along the medial border of the femoral triangle and extends across the medial thigh a centimeter distal to the inguinal crease and perineum, to curve distally below the ischium several centimeters (Fig.1). 4. Full thickness flaps are raised so that the anterior inferior pubic ramus is shown in its entire length, from the pubic tubercle to the ischial spine. Laterally, the adductor muscles are visualized, cranially the pectineus muscle and the pubic tubercle with the insertion of the inguinal ligament (Fig.2).

  • Percutaneous Reduction Techniques
    AAOS 2016 Specialty Day Orthopaedic Trauma Associacion (OTA) Percutaneous Reduction Techniques Christian Krettek Trauma Department, Hannover Medical School, Germany [email protected] www.mhh-unfallchirurgie.de Short segment tibial fractures can be stabilized using different implants like plates, screws, external fixators and nails. This syllabus deals mainly with reduction techniques in the context of the use of intramedullary nails. 1.1 PREOPERATIVE PLANNING AND MANAGEMENT 1.1.1 Primary shortening and secondary overdistraction eases definitive nailing In the acute setting primary shortening of a shaft fracture is a helpful strategy to de- crease soft tissue tension and intra-compartmental pressure. However, reduction gets more difficult and more time consuming, the longer the fracture is kept in a shortened position. The concept of primary shortening (acute phase) and secondary (after 3 or 4 days) overdistraction eases definitive nailing. Using a electro-mechanical load cell, our group has compared the reduction forces in patients undergoing femoral nailing after Damage Control in shortend vs overdistracted fracture configuration. In the overdistrac- tion group, the reduction forces were lower (200 N +/-43.1 N vs. 336 N +/- 51.9 N, p = 0.007) and the reduction time was shorter (5.8 min +/-4.0 min vs. 28.3 min +/-21.8 min, p = 0.056). It was concluded, that DCO with the fracture shortened leads to higher restrai- ning forces & prolonged reduction time. Overdistraction should be performed as soon as possible under careful soft-tissue monitoring [1a, 2a]. Primary shortening and secondary overdistraction eases definitive nailing Example of a femoral shaft fracture stabilized in shortening first with an external fixator.

  • Bones of the Skeletal System
    BIOLOGY 211: HUMAN ANATOMY & PHYSIOLOGY ********************************************************************************************************* BONES OF THE SKELETAL SYSTEM ********************************************************************************************************** Reference: Saladin, KS: Anatomy & Physiology, The Unity of Form and Function, 6th ed. (2012) or 7th ed. (2015) Please review Chapters 7 & 8 before beginning this lab. INTRODUCTION The skeletal system has a number of important functions in the human body. It is the framework around which the body is organized, it provides levers for muscles to pull against, and it surrounds and protects many soft organs. Equally important, bones serve as a "buffer" in which calcium and other ions can be deposited and withdrawn according to the changing needs of the body, and they are the site of almost all blood cell production. Contrary to our popular conceptions, bones are not rigid, inflexible structures: they are constantly changing, and can have a remarkable degree of flexibility before they break. The organs of the skeletal system are the bones and joints, and like all organs are composed of different types of tissue. Although we tend to classify them into "types" such as "long bones", "flat bones", etc., each is in fact unique and ideally suited to its particular location and function. We classify bones as belonging to either: a) the axial skeleton (head and trunk) b) the appendicular skeleton (arms and legs), However, you should always bear in mind that the entire skeletal system functions as a unit. If you look at any bone, you will see that it is rarely flat or smooth. Bones have a variety of bumps, grooves, holes, etc. which allow them to serve their specific functions.

Eur J Med Res (2015) 20:72 DOI 10.1186/s40001-015-0167-8 CASE REPORT Open Access Fracture of the lesser trochanter as a sign of undiagnosed tumor disease in adults Christian Herren*, Christian D. Weber, Miguel Pishnamaz, Thomas Dienstknecht, Philipp Kobbe, Frank Hildebrand and Hans‑Christoph Pape Abstract Isolated avulsion fractures of the pelvic ring are rare and occur predominantly in adolescent athletes. Isolated fractures of the lesser trochanter are reported to be pathognomic for tumor diseases in adults. We present a case of a female patient with an isolated avulsion of the lesser trochanter after treatment by her chiropractor. After staging exami‑ nation, we determine the diagnosis of a left-sided carcinoma of the mamma. Additional imaging shows multiple metastases in liver, spine and pelvis. Palliative therapy has started over the course of time. We suggest, on suspicion of a malignant metastatic process, further investigation.
