Giant osteochondroma of the mandibular condyle

open access: yesJournal of Oral and Maxillofacial Pathology, 2015
Osteochondroma or osteocartilaginous exostosis is an exophytic lesion that arises from the cortex of the bone and is cartilage-capped. Osteochondroma of the mandibular condyle is extremely rare. The following is a case report of an osteochondroma of the mandibular condyle removed via extended preauricular approach to the temporomandibular joint.

Comparative and functional anatomy of masticatory muscles and bite force in opossums (Didelphimorphia, Didelphidae)

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
We describe the functional anatomy of masticatory muscles in nine opossums, finding a generalized anatomical pattern with differences related to skull morphology. Variation in quantitative myological data and estimated bite force was mostly related to size, and the increase in bite force supports dietary diversification associated with size increase ...

Unveiling a rare case of osteochondroma on the lateral pole of the mandibular condyle: An in-depth exploration of literature

open access: yesOral Oncology Reports, 2023
Osteochondroma is a rare bone tumor. Its occurrence in the maxillofacial region is rare due to the intramembranous development of facial bones. According to previous literature, the mandibular condyle is an infrequent site of involvement, with the medial

Silesaurid (Archosauria: Dinosauriformes) remains from the base of the Dockum Group (Late Triassic: Otischalkian) of Texas provide new insights to the North American record of dinosauriforms

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Silesaurids (Archosauria: Dinosauriformes) are found in Middle to Upper Triassic deposits across Pangea, but few stratigraphic sections record the evolution of the group in one geographic area over millions of years. Here, we describe silesaurid remains from the oldest of the Upper Triassic stratigraphic sequence from the base of the Dockum ...

The relationship between form and function of the carnivore mandible

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Dietary morphology diversified extensively in Carnivoraformes (living Carnivora and their stem relatives) during the Cenozoic (the last 66 million years) as they evolved to capture, handle, and process new animal and plant diets. We used 3D geometric morphometrics, mechanical advantage, and finite element analysis to test the evolutionary ...

Three-dimensional Hemifacial Microsomia Classification with New Subtypes Based on the Pruzansky and Kaban Classification

open access: yesPlastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Global Open
Background:. Various classifications of hemifacial microsomia (HFM) have been described previously. Although some of these classifications are used widely, others use external outlines of reference organs, even in three-dimensional (3D) images.

Shaping the human face: Periosteal bone modeling across ontogeny

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Facial morphology is a defining aspect of Homo sapiens that distinguishes our species from fossil ancestors and plays a central role in estimating age, sex, and ancestry in both past and present populations. Understanding how the face develops during postnatal ontogeny is essential for interpreting adult facial variation.
