A Cross-sectional Study on Morphology and Position of Pterion in Andhra Pradesh Population [PDF]
Introduction: Pterion is the important surgical landmark in temporal fossa, deeper to which vital areas of the brain are located. Injuries are common at this suture area due to confluence of multiple bones which are relatively slender and weak. Since

Prevalence and Distribution of Pterion in Adult Dry Human Skull and its Clinical Importance [PDF]
Introduction: The pterion is a topographic point on the lateral aspect of the skull, where frontal, sphenoid, parietal and temporal bones meet. It lies in the anterior part of floor of the temporal fossa about 4 cm above the zygomatic arch & 3.5 cm ...

Transosseous Sutures in Tendon-to-Bone Repairs: the Role of the Epitendinous Suture
Numerous transosseous fixation techniques for flexor tendon injuries in Zone 1 of the hand have been described in the literature. While relatively high maximal loads to failure are documented in different biomechanical experiments, several tests revealed a low 2 mm gapping resistance of the tendon-to-bone repairs.

Single-cell analysis identifies a key role for Hhip in murine coronal suture development
Craniofacial development depends on formation and maintenance of sutures between bones of the skull. Here the authors identify enriched expression of the hedgehog inhibitor Hhip, specifically in the mesenchyme of the murine coronal suture, and show ...

Morphometry of Pterion and its Relation with Middle Meningeal Artery in Dry Human SkullsA Cross-sectional Study [PDF]
Introduction: On the side of skull bone in both sides there is a significant area Pterion which acts as a landmark in neurological surgeries. All four bones meet here at this H-shaped sutural junction.
