A bristle‐nosed Jurassic ray‐finned fish (Actinopterygii) bears true dermal odontodes on its snout

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
Teeth show extreme diversity, including tooth‐like dermal odontodes or “skin teeth” in many extant fishes. We describe the anatomy of enlarged tubercles on the snout of Redfieldius, an extinct early Jurassic fish. We found that the tubercles in Redfieldius are dermal odontodes that evolved independently from those of living species. Abstract Comparison

Palmar dislocation of scaphoid and lunate

open access: yes, 2011
A palmar dislocation of scaphoid and lunate is uncommon. We have found only 19 reported cases in the literature. We reported a simultaneous, divergent dislocation.

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 ...

Scintigraphic assessment of bone status at one year following hip resurfacing : comparison of two surgical approaches using SPECT-CT scan [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Objectives: To study the vascularity and bone metabolism of the femoral head/neck following hip resurfacing arthroplasty, and to use these results to compare the posterior and the trochanteric-flip approaches.

Functional morphology and biomechanics of the locomotor apparatus in the large Late Triassic carnivore Postosuchus kirkpatricki (Archosauria: Rauisuchidae)

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
A three‐dimensional model is used to analyze the locomotor biomechanics of the large Late Triassic archosaurian reptile Postosuchus kirkpatricki. The study finds that it is more uncertain than previously concluded whether it was quadrupedal or bipedal, and plantigrade or digitigrade, but it clearly had locomotor specializations including large hindlimb

Arthroscopically Assisted Treatment of Intraosseous Ganglions of the Lunate

open access: yes, 2008
Intraosseous ganglia (IOGs) of the lunate are a relatively rare, but by no means insignificant, condition because treatment by traditional open curettage and bone grafting can lead to ongoing pain and stiffness of the wrist.An arthroscopically assisted ...

Skeletons of swiftly swimming sharks: Three‐dimensional analysis of lamniform vertebral morphology and mineral architecture

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
We examined morphology, 3D arrangement, and mineral amount in cartilaginous vertebrae from four lamniform shark families (Alopiidae, Carchariidae, Cetorhinidae, and Lamnidae). We identified family‐specific mineralization trends, and regional patterning of structures along the column.

Recognizing Signs of Abusive Head Trauma

open access: yesJournal of Paediatrics and Child Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Abusive head trauma (AHT) remains the leading cause of fatal traumatic brain injury in infants and young children. Diagnosis is frequently delayed or missed due to nonspecific clinical presentation and unreliable histories, making neuroimaging a critical component of the diagnostic process. Objective This review synthesises computed

ACRYLIC LUNATE PROSTHESES

open access: yes, 1974
1. Fourteen patients whose Kienböck's disease was treated by prosthetic replacement, and who have had an acrylic lunate prosthesis in place for periods of eight to twenty years, have been reviewed. 2.
