The Cutaneous Branch of the Obturator Nerve: Common Finding or a Rarity Worthy of Note
ABSTRACT According to textbook descriptions, branches of the femoral and obturator nerves provide the sensory innervation to the medial side of the thigh. However, as the exact prevalence of the obturator nerve's cutaneous branch is unknown, an anatomic study was conducted to reveal its role in providing cutaneous innervation to the medial thigh ...

An ultrasound-based femoral artery calcification score
Objective: Duplex ultrasound (US) of the lower extremities is commonly used to assess patients with lower extremity atherosclerosis. Arterial calcification can often be visualized in these images; however, efforts to quantify its extent have been limited.

Grooved Surface of the Obturator Internus Muscle With Two Distinct Adjacent Parts
ABSTRACT The specific anatomical features of the obturator internus, particularly those of its medial surface, remain insufficiently characterized. This study investigated the morphology of the obturator internus muscle by focusing on the shape of its medial surface and potential age‐related changes.

ABSTRACT Limited access to cadavers necessitates the availability of digital resources for anatomy education. Smartphone‐based photogrammetry offers a promising solution for creating three‐dimensional (3D) and augmented reality (AR) models. This study compared two mobile photogrammetry applications (Qlone and Polycam) that have been used in modern ...

ABSTRACT Inconsistencies exist in anatomy and clinical reference texts regarding the vertebral levels of major abdominal structures. Accurate surface anatomy is essential for diagnostic interpretation and interventional procedures, yet little is known about how health status or pathology may influence the vertebral relationships of abdominal organs ...

ABSTRACT Percutaneous transaxillary access is an established alternative to transfemoral large‐bore arterial access for transcatheter structural heart interventions and mechanical circulatory support (MCS). Although useful for overcoming hostile iliofemoral anatomy and providing prolonged support and patient mobilization in case of MCS, the axillary ...

ABSTRACT Background Calcified plaque (CP) detachment (CD) and calcium fracture (CF) can occur following coronary intravascular lithotripsy (IVL). The extent to which CF alone facilitates stent expansion during CP modification with IVL remains unclear. Aims This study aimed to investigate the clinical implications of IVL‐induced CD.
