Background: Some studies have previously shown that geometry of proximal femur can affect the probability of fracture and type of fracture. It happens since the geometry of the proximal femur determines how a force is applied to its different parts. In this study, we have compared proximal femur’s geometric characteristics in femoral neck (FNF), intertrochanteric (ITF) and Subtrochanteric (ST...

Giant lipomas are benign soft tissue tumors found rarely in the neck and are still rarer in the anterior part of the neck. A 70-year-old male patient was presented with a huge swelling measuring 35 cm in maximum dimension, in the front of the neck, reaching up till the umbilicus. The swelling was painless, slow growing and acquired the huge size in approximately 20 years. Ultrasound and CT scan...

OBJECTIVE This study used the intradural procedural time to assess the overall technical difficulty involved in surgically clipping an unruptured middle cerebral artery (MCA) aneurysm via a pterional or superciliary approach. The clinical and radiological variables affecting the intradural procedural time were investigated, and the intradural procedural time compared between a superciliary keyh...

aim and background:   one of interventional procedure in pain specialty is stellate ganglion block. in this study we tried to show more on the sonoanatomy of the area, including the diameter of longus coli muscle and the distance between sixth cervical transverse process and the surface of skin. obviously, understanding different anatomical locations can help to more successful block and avoid ...

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to compare the eligibility of men and women with infrarenal abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAAs) for on-label endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) as part of the clinician-Food & Drug Administration (FDA) collaborative effort, the Characterization of Human Aortic Anatomy Project (CHAP). Methods: Computed tomography (CT) scans with 3D reconstruction from a s...
