Pathology such as skull fractures can be misdiagnosed in the presence of anatomical variations. One variant that has had little description in the literature are the sutural bones associated with the nasal bones. Herein, we describe a case of a rare sutural bone at the nasion, between the bones of the right nasal, frontal, and maxillary frontal process. To our knowledge, this is the first repor...

BACKGROUND Classic craniofacial resection and the subcranial approach are well-established techniques for the removal of tumors involving the anterior skull base. These techniques require frontal craniotomy to allow broad exposure of the anterior cranial fossa, a procedure that may be further complicated by local infection and osteomyelitis or because of a reduction in tissue perfusion and dire...

Pott's puffy tumor, a subperiosteal abscess of the frontal bone with cranial osteomyelitis, is a rare complication of frontal sinusitis. In this report, we describe the radiological findings of a 24-year-old man, presenting with swelling of the right upper eyelid. Correct and early diagnosis of this infrequent, but potentially life-threatening condition is of utmost importance.

A 20-year-old male was referred to the Department of oral and maxillofacial surgery, Trinity Hospital, Aizawl-Mizoram on July 4th,2022 with a history Road traffic accident (RTA). The patient unconscious taken operation theatre had multiple facial injuries. frontal bone fracture sinus injury noticed starry sky approach used under GA. Overall, shows very less scars complications proves be right i...

OBJECTIVES The development of computer-assisted surgery in total knee arthroplasty continues its search for better accuracy in the spatial positioning of prosthetic components and in achieving the best ideal ligament balance. Many studies have underscored the value of computer-assisted navigation in obtaining precise bone cuts in terms of both orientation and location, which would optimize bone...

BACKGROUND Intracranial osteomas are uncommon lesions that usually arise from the inner table of the cranium. There are few reports in the literature of intracranial osteomas with meninges attachment and without direct relation with the skull bone; these osteomas were mostly attached with dura. We report a rare osteoma with falx attachment. CASE A 64-year-old woman presented with a 3-month hi...

BACKGROUND The mechanical properties of 1-2-year-old pediatric cranial bones and sutures and their influential factors were studied to better understand how the pediatric calvarium reacts to loading. MATERIAL AND METHODS Cranial bone and suture specimens were extracted from seven fresh-frozen human infant cadavers (1.5±0.5 years old). Eight specimens were obtained from each subject: two front...

Although intranasal frontal sinusotomy can now be performed for most cases of chronic frontal sinusitis, the osteoplastic frontal sinus procedure with obliteration, unfortunately, still is considered by many to be the standard for chronic frontal sinusitis against that which other frontal sinus procedures are judged. Unobliterating the previously obliterated sinus is indicated for patients with...

The form in frontal view of the recent human facial skeleton, including the frontal bone, was simulated under the condition of uniform strength to cope with the forces in the chewing action, by using the two-dimensional frame model made of members with step-wise variable cross-sections and by using the finite element analysis method. The simulation, in which the condition was applied to the ele...

A 4-month-old intact female English Springer Spaniel presented to the University of Georgia Veterinary Teaching Hospital for evaluation of unilateral, progressive exophthalmos oculus sinister (OS) of 2 weeks' duration. Complete ophthalmic examination revealed moderate OS exophthalmos and lateral globe deviation. No other abnormalities were noted on physical or ophthalmic examination, ocular ult...
