The anatomical works of Juan Valverde de Amusco History the composition human body, and De humani corporis fabrica by Andrés Vesalio were two main references for anatomists surgeons during Renaissance. Valverde’s work is result study on corpse. It composed seven books follows a descending architectural order, from head to toe, in same way as Vesalius’ text. was accused plagiarizing Vesalio’s fa...

Proper knowledge of muscular variations is essential for both anatomists and surgeons. Variations of the flexor carpi ulnaris (FCU) are not very common. We are reporting an unusual case of FCU muscle with two bellies. The two heads (ulnar and humeral) of the muscle continued as two separate bellies and the tendons of which joined each other slightly proximal to the wrist before getting inserted...

Variations in the main arteries of the upper limb are common and these anomalies can be of substantial interest to orthopedic surgeons, plastic surgeons, radiologists and anatomists. We present here a case of a high origin of the ulnar artery from the brachial artery found during anatomical dissection of a right upper limb of a 50-year-old man. This superficial ulnar artery, after running over ...

During educational dissections we observed a phrenic ganglion on the nerve of the phrenic artery originating from the upper pole of the right coeliac ganglion, which accompanied the right inferior phrenic artery on a female cadaver at the age of 34. In our case the left coeliac ganglion, the inferior phrenic artery, the right and left greater, lesser and least splanchnic nerves were present and...

medullary fibres may be easily traced to the cerebellum. This, indeed, was known to the older anatomists, who called it " processus cerebelli ad medullam oblongatam." In its course upwards, it meets with a mass or ganglion called corpus dentatum, which contains much brown matter, and is considered by Dr. S. a preparatory apparatus, destined to increase the medullary filaments which enter it. Fr...

The arterial network of the lower limb has a wide range of variations and attracts attention not only by anatomists but also by surgeons [1–9]. These variations are explained from the embryological abnormalities of the arterial pattern of the lower extremity [2,7,10]. From clinical point of view, the variant crural arteries may have an impact in the field of surgery and during catheterization p...

Variations related to the liver are frequently encountered. This case reports the variant course of ligamentum teres present and its attachment along the inferior margin of falciform ligament which was embedded in a tunnel formed by the liver parenchyma. It also reports a complete absence of the quadrate lobe. This knowledge can be fruitfully utilised by anatomists, embryologists, radiologists ...

Paranasal sinuses are paired cavities within the skull, which develop by evagination into spongy bone between external and internal plates of cranial facial bones. Thus, each sinus is lined respiratory epithelium has direct or indirect communication to nasal cavity. The purpose this chapter present an anatomical reference guide paranasal in domestic animals, including large small ruminants (cat...

The aim of this study is to explore how the dead human body socially produced through practices those involved in teaching anatomy cadaveric dissection. perspectives anatomists learning teach offer a novel perspective on existing literature. draws data from interviews with students and staff practical dissection during UK postgraduate education programme. Interviews addressed participants’ expe...

One of the main goals applied morphology is to make teaching normal anatomy visual. Natural preparations organs and body parts an animal should be demonstrative enough retain their shape appearance for a long time. Compared others, method that we have developed manufacture anatomical has significant advantages, in such quality makes it possible study object not only visually, but also manually....
