Proliferating Cells in Knee Epiphyses of Lizards Allow for Somatic Growth and Regeneration after Damage

open access: yesJournal of Functional Morphology and Kinesiology, 2017
After bone damage, fracture or amputation, lizards regenerate a variable mass of cartilaginous and fibro-cartilaginous tissues, depending from the anatomical site and intensity of inflammation. Aside tail and vertebrae, also long bones and knee epiphyses

Sexual dimorphism and allometric patterns in hawkmoth epiphyses (Lepidoptera: Sphingidae) [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports
Sexual dimorphism in insects often extends beyond size differences, encompassing a range of morphological traits. These sex differences in wing size, body mass, antenna shape, and even the epiphyses of lepidopterans have been studied previously.

Cartilaginous Epiphyses in Extant Archosaurs and Their Implications for Reconstructing Limb Function in Dinosaurs

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2010
Extinct archosaurs, including many non-avian dinosaurs, exhibit relatively simply shaped condylar regions in their appendicular bones, suggesting potentially large amounts of unpreserved epiphyseal (articular) cartilage.

Immediate Versus Semi-Elective Treatment of Stable Slipped Capital Femoral Epiphyses (SCFE) [PDF]

open access: yesChildren
Background/Objectives: Timing of fixation of stable slipped capital femoral epiphysis (SCFE) is controversial. As pressure mounts to limit inpatient admissions and procedures, our aim was to investigate whether treatment of SCFE in a delayed manner is a ...

Imaging Pitfall in the Pediatric Knee: Irregular Epiphyseal Ossification at the Femoral Condyle

open access: yesJournal of the Belgian Society of Radiology, 2021
Teaching point: Age-related variability in endochondral ossification of the femoral condyles in children is a normal variant of skeletal maturation and should not be misdiagnosed as osteochondritis dissecans or any other epiphyseal abnormality.

Prediction of endotracheal tube size for pediatric patients from the epiphysis diameter of radius [PDF]

open access: yesKorean Journal of Anesthesiology, 2017
BackgroundUsing a too big or a too small size of an endotracheal tube in pediatric patients would result in tracheal injury or insufficient ventilation.

Comparison of DNA preservation and ATR-FTIR spectroscopy indices of cortical and trabecular bone of metacarpals and metatarsals

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
Shape, size, composition, and function of the bones in the human body vary on the macro, micro and nanoscale. This can influence changes caused by taphonomy and post-mortem preservation, including DNA.

Dysplasia Epiphysealis Hemimelica (Trevor’s Disease) in Children, Two New Cases: Diagnosis, Treatment, and Literature Review

open access: yesChildren, 2021
Dysplasia epiphysealis hemimelica (DEH), also known as Trevor’s disease, is a rare nonhereditary skeletal disorder affecting one side of the epiphyses or the epiphyses-equivalents.

Regeneration of the Epiphysis Including the Articular Cartilage in the Injured Knees of the Lizard Podarcis muralis

open access: yesJournal of Developmental Biology, 2015
Cartilage regeneration is massive during tail regeneration in lizards but little is known about cartilage regeneration in other body regions of the skeleton. The recovery capability of injured epiphyses of femur and tibia of lizard knees has been studied
