Obstetric bilateral shaft femur fracture in an arthrogrypotic newborn

open access: yes, 2020
: The risk of obstetric femoral fracture increases in the setting of associated congenital deformities of the lower limbs . The presented case underlines the importance of anticipating associated deformities to avoid the complication of fracture .In the ...

Deletion of Vhl in osteocytes and mature osteoblasts results in increased cortical osteocyte apoptosis.

open access: yes, 2015
(A) H&E-stained sections of the cortical bone from femurs of 6-week-old and 8-month-old CON and ΔVHL mice. Empty osteocyte lacunae (arrows) can be observed in the sections obtained from the ΔVHL mice; all the osteocyte lacunae are filled with cells, as ...

Scaling relationships between Haversian canal‐to‐secondary osteon and midshaft femur cortical‐to‐total area in a human autopsy sample

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
We report that femoral cortical thickness was strongly and negatively associated with secondary osteon porosity in an Australian autopsy sample, indicating that thicker cortices contained less porous secondary osteons. This allometric relationship held for the whole sample, males and sedentary well‐nourished individuals, but not for females or other ...

Morphological study of the supratrochlear foramen in Canis lupus ssp.

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
The supratrochlear foramen (STF) is a common anatomical feature in the humeri of dogs and wolves. This study shows that the STF exhibits a consistent shape and position in dogs and wolves, suggesting a common morphological pattern; however, it was less frequent in smaller dog humeri, and its size correlated with humeral dimensions, suggesting that ...

Bilateral asymmetry in the limb bones of the chimpanzee (Pan troglodytes)

open access: yes, 2005
There is much debate in behavioral primatology on the existence of population-level handedness in chimpanzees. The presence or absence of functional laterality in great apes may shed light on the origins of human handedness and on the evolution of ...

How do forelimb long bones adapt in rhinoceroses? An in‐depth examination of their microanatomy

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
Here, we study the bone structure in the forelimb long bones of the five extant species of rhinoceroses. By combining traditional description of virtual sections made on the bones (A) with in‐depth cartographies of the variation of bone compactness and anisotropy (B), we show how bone tissue can adapt to extreme forces and constraints in the second ...

Morphofunctional effects of captivity on the microanatomy of the talus bone in a wild ungulate (Sus scrofa)

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
Our study explores the plastic changes induced by captivity on the microanatomy of the talus of wild boars, revealing denser bone with tighter trabecular networks but a lower relative maximum thickness of compact bone. These plastic adaptations can serve to detect early processes of domestication in the archaeological record.

Intercalary Diaphyseal Endoprosthetic Reconstruction

open access: yesJAAOS: Global Research and Reviews
Intercalary endoprosthetic devices are a diaphyseal segmental reconstructive option for both primary tumors and skeletal metastases, most used for pathological fractures or failure of internal fixation. Numerous designs have been employed with varying success.
