Morphological study of the supratrochlear foramen in Canis lupus ssp.
The supratrochlear foramen (STF) is a common anatomical feature in the humeri of dogs and wolves. This study shows that the STF exhibits a consistent shape and position in dogs and wolves, suggesting a common morphological pattern; however, it was less frequent in smaller dog humeri, and its size correlated with humeral dimensions, suggesting that ...

Fractures of the proximal humerus are very common in elderly people with an increasing incidence. Complex fracture-patterns are observed. For radiological examination x-rays in 2 planes are mandatory. Often an additive CT-scan can be useful for a better understanding of the whole fracture-character. Limits of accepted fracture displacement decrease and

A new plate design to treat displaced 3-4 parts proximal humeral fractures in comparison to the most tested and used plate: clinical and radiographic study [PDF]
Aim Proximal humeral fractures are common and most complex patterns currently represent a challenge for surgeons. Difficulties in obtaining good anatomical reduction (particularly of great tuberosity) often lead to unsatisfactory results; choices often ...

How do forelimb long bones adapt in rhinoceroses? An in‐depth examination of their microanatomy
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 ...
