Occipital Bone Graft for Atlantoaxial Fusion
Acta Neurochirurgica, 2000 Instability of the atlantoaxial segment is frequently encountered in neurosurgical practice. Numerous fusion techniques have been employed at this level. Most commonly, arthrodesis is achieved through bone and wire techniques. We have employed the use of suboccipital bone in lieu of iliac crest autograft in order to avoid the significant morbidity ...

Quantitative assessment of masticatory muscles based on skull muscle attachment areas in Carnivora
The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Masticatory muscles are composed of the temporalis, masseter, and pterygoid muscles in mammals. Each muscle has a different origin on the skull and insertion on the mandible; thus, all masticatory muscles contract in different directions. Collecting in vivo data and directly measuring the masticatory muscles anatomically in various Carnivora ...

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Domesticated European rabbits (Oryctolagus cuniculus) have long been chosen as laboratory model organisms. Despite this, there has been no definitive study of the vertebral musculature of wild rabbits. Relevant descriptions of well‐studied veterinary model mammals (such as dogs) are generally applicable, but not appropriate for a species ...

Sinir Sistemi Cerrahisi Dergisi, 2014 Osteomas are benign bone-forming tumours. They are mostly seen in the frontoethmoidal region in the head and neck region, and occipital localization is extremely rare. They are often asymptomathic lesions, and can be detected by cosmetic complaint of the patient. In large tumours headache and dizziness can be the symptoms. A 39-year-old female admitted

Primary Ewing′s sarcoma of occipital bone
Indian Journal of Radiology and Imaging, 2006 Ewing′s sarcoma commonly involves the long bones. Primary Ewing′s sarcoma of the cranium is rare and is difficult to distinguish from other tumors involving the cranium. Radiological features and immuno-histochemistry are helpful in diagnosing this tumor.

Early Pliocene Varanus (Squamata, Varanidae) remains from Megalo Emvolon, Thessaloniki, Greece
The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.The article describes new cranial and postcranial varanid material from Megalo Emvolon Lower Pliocene vertebrate fossil site near Thessaloniki. The fossils, likely representing a single individual, are referred to Varanus cf. marathonensis. Abstract This study describes new fossil varanid material from a recently discovered fossil spot (MVL site) at ...

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.A new musculoskeletal reconstruction and revision of the cranio‐mandibular anatomy of the Devonian arthrodire placoderm Dunkleosteus terrelli from a comparative and functional anatomical perspective. Dunkleosteus is a specialized arthrodire with many specializations for feeding on large vertebrates, and many of its features are part of broader ...

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract The study of morphological evolution is fundamentally tied to ontogeny, yet studies of these heterochronic processes in the fossil record are rare. Fossils belonging to an ontogenetic series are difficult to assign to an ontogenetic stage due to inconsistent proxies for skeletal ages, challenging to taxonomically assign due to morphological ...
