Cerveny C.: Osteometry of the Ossa Sesamoidea Phalangis Proximalis in Cattle (Bos primigenius f. taurus Linne 1758). Acta vet. Brno, 54, 1985: 119-128. The sesamoid bones of the proximal phalanges of the digits from 14 bovine females of the Bohemian Spotted cattle were subject to osteometric examination. Statistical significance of four characteristics was studied. There was no statistical sign...

abstract bizarre parosteal osteochondromatous proliferation (bpop), also known as nora's lesion is a rare osteocartilaginous lesion composed of a disorganized mixture of cartilage, bone, and fibrous tissue. in this article we report a case of bpop arising on the proximal and middle phalanx of ring finger in a 31 year-old woman. the clinical, radiographic, mr imaging and histopathologic findings...

Mechanical loading of finger bones (phalanges) can induce angular curvature, which benefits arboreal primates by dissipating forces and economising the recruitment muscles during climbing. The recent discovery extremely curved phalanges in a hominin, Homo naledi, is puzzling, for it suggests life an milieu, or, alternatively, habitual climbing on vertical rock surfaces. importance walls atteste...

Background: In forensic anthropological identification, we usually use body remains. Accurate sex estimation from these remains is very important and needs the knowledge of specific population standards of that area. Sometimes, human remains are damaged by environmental circumstances. So, we must examine single bones for sex estimation. One of the relatively resistant bones to environmental con...

A wide range of options is available to surgeons for fixation of the proximal interphalangeal joint when arthrodesis is undertaken for repair of the hammertoe deformity. In this technical report, we describe the use of an intraosseous loop of stainless-steel wire for permanent stabilization of the interface between the proximal and middle phalanges during fusion of the interphalangeal joint.

A syndrome of brachydactyly (absence of some middle or distal phalanges), aplastic or hypoplastic nails, symphalangism (ankylois of proximal interphalangeal joints), synostosis of some carpal and tarsal bones, craniosynostosis, and dysplastic hip joints is reported in five members of an Italian family. It may represent a previously undescribed autosomal dominant trait.

Osteoid osteomata are rarely found in the distal phalanges of the hand. The usual presenting features are chronic pain, nail enlargement and increase in size of the terminal part of the digit. Diagnosis is difficult but surgical excision is effective for treating the patients' pain. We reported this tumor in distal phalanx of the middle finger.
