The present anatomical findings show that the area of eventual neuromuscular damage should be estimated to larger than the conventionally predicted area of direct nerve damage, which is usually concomitant with the surgical intervention area.
The anterior abdominal muscle wall has a strong aesthetic connotation, primarily because of the classical anatomical description of the rectus abdominis muscle in the collective consciousness. However, the morphological reality of the general population considerably deviates from this description. Therefore, we investigated the anthropometric characteristics correlated with the anatomy of the rectus abdominis muscle.

We performed a computed tomography scan anatomical study of recti abdominis muscles in 86 patients with no history of abdominal surgery. We noted the transverse and anteroposterior measurements of the rectus abdominis muscle, the transverse measurement of the linea alba, and the cutaneous and muscular abdominal perimeters. We compared these morphological elements with anthropometric data (sex, age, weight, height, and body mass index [BMI]).

BMI was positively correlated with cutaneous abdominal perimeter (r = 0.89, p < 0.001) and muscular abdominal perimeter (r = 0.7, p < 0.001). The correlation of BMI with cutaneous abdominal perimeter was not influenced by sex (r = 0.90 and r = 0.89 in men and women, respectively). The correlation of BMI with muscular abdominal perimeter was greater in men than in women (r = 0.80 vs. r = 0.75). The muscular abdominal perimeter was more strongly correlated with the transverse measurement of the rectus abdominis muscle in men than in women (r = 0.75 vs. r = 0.59). The muscular abdominal perimeter was more strongly correlated with the linea alba in women than in men (r = 0.51 vs. r = 0.31).

The anatomy of the anterior abdominal wall correlated with anthropometric data, including BMI. Rectus abdominis muscles and linea alba structures differed between men and women.

The aim of this study was to describe the anatomical features encountered in the parietal foramen in a series of 178 human bones and 123 head MRI examinations. A cadaveric specimen was also dissected to demonstrate the trajectory of a superficial scalp vein through the parietal foramen as far as the dura mater. A literature review was performed regarding prevalence of parietal foramen in different populations.

Totally, 178 paired adult bones were used to investigate the presence, shape and number of the parietal foramina. In addition, 123 brain MRI examinations were also studied.

The parietal foramina were encountered in 75/89 (84.3%) skulls [32/38 (84.2%) in women vs. 43/51 (84.3%) in men, p > 0.05]. The parietal foramen was present bilaterally in 44.73% of females and 54.9% of males. Regarding unilateralityof the parietal foramen, a right or left laterality was observedin female 21% right versus 18% left; and 16% versus 14% (left) in males (p > 0.05). The accessory parietal foramen was present in the right parietal in 2.6% and in 7.9% on the left side of the females, while 5.9% and 3.9% of the males on the right or left sides, respectively. The parietal foramina located in the proximity of the sagittal suture (male 7.1 ± 2.5mm vs. female, 7.4 ± 2.7mm). There was a positive correlation between the right and left parietal foramina regarding the distance from the median line. The distance from a foramen to the contralateral one was 16 ± 4mm in men and 18 ± 5mm in women, respectively (p > 0.05).

No major differences were encountered between sexes regarding the anatomical features of parietal foramen.

The purpose of this investigation was to evaluate the relation of the basal turn of cochlea with middle cranial fossa and round window as pertaining to middle cranial fossa cochlear implant technique.

Fifty-four formalin preserved temporal bones were micro-dissected to expose the basal turn. The point (f) was marked on the basal turn of cochlea where there was minimum distance of basal turn of cochlea from the floor of middle cranial fossa (f
). The f-f
distance, the angle (∠smf) and distance of point "f" from the round window (s-f) was measured.

The mean minimum distance between basal turn of cochlea and floor of middle cranial fossa (f-f
) was 2.0 ± 0.7mm.The point f was at mean distance (s-f) and angle (∠smf) of 14.7 ± 1.6mm and 217° ± 13.7° from round window, respectively.

The information may be helpful for designing appropriate electrode array for middle fossa technique especially for deciding the length of electrode array towards round window, as otherwise electrode may extend into vestibule of inner ear. In the cases where bone thickness between superior part of basal turn of cochlea and middle cranial fossa is < 1.5mm, surgeon should be extra cautious.

The present study aimed to explore the glymphatic pathway in the intraorbital optic nerve (ON) using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).

Following conventional MRI examination, a total of 89 outpatients underwent T2-weighted imaging in thin-sliced coronal and sagittal sections. Eganelisib Moreover, three injected cadaver heads were dissected.

In the cadaver specimens, differences in appearance between the central and peripheral parts of the ON were not observed. On the axial T2-weighted MRI performed in the initial examination, the central part of the intraorbital ONs was delineated as a well-demarcated, linear hyperintense area in 19% of patients. On the thin-sliced serial coronal images, the hyperintense areas were identified on both sides in 91% of patients. They were delineated as continuous hyperintense areas in the ONs with an inconsistent appearance even in the same nerve. In 12.4% of patients, the areas were divided into the upper and lower parts by a horizontal septum, while others showed variable morphologies, lacking a septum.
