Acute Spinal Cord Contusion in a Patient with Multiple Upper Cervical Fractures, Parkinson’s Disease, and Torticollis: Surgical Management

Case Reports in Orthopedics, 2020
Case Report. Spine surgery in patients with Parkinson’s disease (PD) involves increased risk. We describe a case of cervical myelopathy in a patient with PD, multiple fractures involving the atlas and axis vertebrae, and spasmodic torticollis.

Evaluation of quantitative muscle MRI and an intelligent phenotyping housing system as advanced phenotyping methods in a mouse model of calpain 3‐deficient muscular dystrophy

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
We applied quantitative MRI of the lower limb and automated home‐cage phenotyping to a mouse model of calpainopathy to detect early disease changes. At 15 months, calpain 3‐deficient mice showed increased water T2 values correlating with immune cell infiltration in the soleus and gastrocnemius muscles, while assessment of motor activity revealed only ...

Prevalence and associations of sella turcica bridging and cervical vertebral anomalies in lateral cephalometric radiographs: a retrospective study

Folia Morphologica
BACKGROUND: This study aimed to investigate the prevalence of sella turcica bridging (STB), ponticulus posticus, and posterior arch deficiency of the atlas on lateral cephalometric radiographs in an orthodontic population, and to evaluate their ...

Revisiting paravertebral muscles in European rabbits (Oryctolagus cuniculus) and European brown hares (Lepus europaeus) (Leporidae; Lagomorpha)

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Domesticated European rabbits (Oryctolagus cuniculus) have long been chosen as laboratory model organisms. Despite this, there has been no definitive study of the vertebral musculature of wild rabbits. Relevant descriptions of well‐studied veterinary model mammals (such as dogs) are generally applicable, but not appropriate for a species ...

A Morphological Study of Assimilation of Atlas Vertebrae and their Clinical Implications in Indian Population

Journal of Pharmacy and Bioallied Sciences
Background: Atlas is the first cervical vertebra. Rarely, does the atlas vertebra fuse with the occipital bone, and this occipitalization of the atlas is known as the assimilation of the atlas.

Cervical Trauma Patients with Down Syndrome, Case Report

Forbes Tıp Dergisi, 2020
Dislocations of the atlantooccipital junction are rarely encountered fatal injuries, and occur with high energy traumas. Although atlantoaxial rotational instabilities are mostly seen after upper respiratory tract infections in children, trauma and ...

Osteological correlates of the respiratory and vascular systems in the neural canals of Mesozoic ornithurines Ichthyornis and Janavis

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract In birds, the neural canal houses a variety of anatomical structures including the spinal cord, meninges, spinal vasculature, and respiratory diverticula. Among these, paramedullary diverticula and the extradural dorsal spinal vein may leave behind osteological correlates in the form of pneumatic foramina and fossae, and a bilobed geometry of ...

Morphological variation in atlas and axis of Neotropical spiny rats (Rodentia, Echimyidae)

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The unique morphologies of the first two cervical vertebrae, the atlas and axis, represent a significant innovation in mammalian evolution. These structures support the weight of the head and enable intricate movements of the head and neck.
