Plexiform’s perplexities: a tale of two plexiform neurofibromas

Journal of Surgical Case Reports
Abstract Plexiform neurofibroma (PF) is a rare benign variant belonging to a subtype of neurofibromatosis type 1 that forms bulging or deforming masses arising from the peripheral nerve sheath. These masses involve surrounding connective tissue or dermal layers, leading to multiple cutaneous changes and certain characteristic appearances.

Osteohistology of two phorusrhacids reveals uninterrupted growth strategy

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Phorusrhacidae were apex predators that primarily dominated South America ecosystems for at least 40 million years with their imposing size and predatory lifestyle—yet some aspects of their biology remain poorly understood. Osteohistology is a tool for understanding growth dynamics and biomechanical adaptations.

Multinodular plexiform tumors of major peripheral nerves: A practical overview

, 2021
Background and aims: Multinodular/plexiform schwannomas and neurofibromas of major nerves are rare: before surgery, differential diagnosis among these two uncommon variants is challenging.

Paleopathology of a putative colossosaurian caudal vertebra (Neosauropoda: Titanosauria) from the Presidente Prudente Formation, Brazil

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Studies investigating paleopathologies in sauropods remain scarce despite their relative abundance in the fossil record. In this study we report new occurrence of paleopathological features, corresponding to a neoplasm found in a middle caudal vertebra (MCT.R.2120) of an advanced titanosaur from the Presidente Prudente Formation (Bauru Basin ...

Innervation of the tubarial glands: A hypothesis‐driven anatomical review

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The tubarial glands have been described as a macroscopic bilateral glandular complex in the posterolateral nasopharynx near the torus tubarius and the pharyngeal opening of the Eustachian tube. Since their recognition on prostate‐specific membrane antigen‐based imaging, their anatomical classification has remained debated, with converging ...

Dendritic Cell Neurofibroma with Pseudorosette: An Uncharted Entity at Unusual Sites: Two Case Reports with Literature Review

Journal of Dermatology and Dermatologic Surgery
Dendritic cell neurofibroma with pseudorosette (DCNP) is a novel entity of neurofibroma with sparse literature. Neurofibroma is a benign peripheral nerve sheath tumor having many known histological variants including localized, diffuse, plexiform ...

Autonomic Plexuses of the Female Sexual Organs Travel Within Pubocervical and Rectovaginal [Endopelvic] Fascia: A Rationale for ‘Nerve‐Aware’ Vaginal Prolapse Repair

Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The connective tissue support of female pelvic viscera—endopelvic fascia—has been studied in fetal and immunohistochemical models to demonstrate its relationship with the autonomic nerves of the female pelvis. Due to a paucity of literature examining the gross anatomical relationships between endopelvic fascia and autonomic nerves in adult ...

Bilateral Symmetry and Variation of Recurrent Laryngeal Nerve and Inferior Thyroid Artery Patterns: An Intraoperative Study of 150 Nerves

Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The anatomical relationship of the inferior thyroid artery (ITA) and the recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN) is highly variable. This study aims to evaluate bilateral RLN branching patterns and their relationship to the ITA within the same patient, predicting contralateral anatomical variations and ultimately reducing intraoperative risk of RLN ...
