Depressed skull fracture is an inward buckling of the skull bones, often because of direct blow to a small surface area of the skull with a blunt object. Monoparesis is often among its clinical presentations, but midline depressed skull fracture presenting as motor weakness of both lower limbs (Paraperesis) has not yet been reported. We report the case of 55 year old male admitted to emergency ...

The skull morphology of the lion (4), dog (15) and cat (4) are described and compared in this work. Measurements of their skull length, weight (without mandible), cranial length and width, facial length and width, skull index, cranial index, facial index, orbital index and cranial capacity are given. Correlations between these measurements were also examined for each species. These results are ...

Posterior circulation revascularization is a challenging technique because microanastomosis must be performed in deep locations. A reproducible simulation model is proposed for training. The prototype three-dimensional skull model with artificial brain was used. The mesencephalic segment of superior cerebellar artery (SCA) and the caudal loop of the posterior inferior cerebellar artery (PICA) w...

This study presents osteological measurements and morphological descriptions of the Abaza goat skull. In total, 18 osteometric parameters 10 skulls were measured. As a result, mean skull length was determined as 20.82±1.4 cm, cranial 11.67±0.7 facial 11.65±1.5 index 51.01±1.8 50.5±7.5 71.0±8.1 cm foramen magnum 106.7±13.7 respectively. four major intra-corneal protuberance found on frontal bone...

Introduction: The medical applications of ultrasound on human brain are highly limited by the phase and amplitude aberrations induced by the heterogeneities of the skull. However, it has been shown that time reversing coupled with amplitude compensation can overcome these aberrations. In this work, a model for 2D simulation of the time reversal mirror technique is proposed to study the possibil...
