RÉSUMÉ

Medical colleges are adopting new technologies to facilitate medical students in learning new medical procedures. The new technologies include leap motion, Microsoft HoloLens, oculus rift, and HTC Vive devices. These devices allow for the visualization of 3D images in virtual or augmented reality. These devices range from non-immersive desktop systems with or without motion tracking to immersive CAVE systems and head-mounted display (HMD) systems such as the HTC Vive and oculus rift. With HMDs, the user enters a virtual environment by wearing goggles with screens for both eyes. Anatomy is a widely used subject in virtual reality (VR) applications. By studying the structure and mechanisms of the human body, we can create extensive online databases with human images and information in the form of CT/MRI scans. The virtual dissection table "Anatomage" is a computerized teaching tool that reconstructs CT scans of humans into a 3D format, which can be viewed using digital media. Students have the opportunity to analyze thin cross-sectional slices of the human anatomy and identify organs and their positions through different planes. By learning Anatomage, they can essentially perform an electronic dissection of a virtual cadaver. To evaluate the efficiency of virtual dissectors in the field of anatomy, a pre and post-test performance of medical students was conducted. The results showed that more than two-thirds (72%) of the students preferred the incorporation of 3D imaging in "Anatomage", as it enables them to understand anatomy envisioned through medical imaging more effectively.

RÉSUMÉ

SUMMARY: The axillary artery is a continuation of the subclavian artery and transitions into the brachial artery. Variations in the axillary artery are not uncommon. During the upper-limb dissection of a 95-year-old Korean female cadaver, assorted anatomical variations of the axillary artery branches were identified. On the right side, no branches emerged from the first part of the axillary artery. The thoracoacromial artery (excluding the pectoral branch) and the common subscapular trunk arose from the second part, with the common subscapular trunk giving origins to the pectoral branch, lateral thoracic artery, and subscapular artery. The subscapular artery is divided into the thoracodorsal artery, circumflex scapular artery, and accessory posterior circumflex humeral artery. Additionally, the superior thoracic artery arose from the lateral thoracic artery. The third part of the axillary artery gave rise to the anterior and posterior circumflex humeral arteries, accessory acromial branch, and accessory thoracodorsal artery. On the left side, the thoracoacromial artery (excluding the pectoral branch) and the superior thoracic artery arose from the first part. The common subscapular trunk arose from the second part, which included the pectoral branch, lateral thoracic artery, and subscapular artery. The subscapular artery is divided into the thoracodorsal artery, circumflex scapular artery, accessory posterior circumflex humeral artery, and accessory lateral thoracic artery. The third part gave rise to the anterior and posterior circumflex humeral arteries and the accessory acromial branch. This study presents variations of the axillary artery, emphasizing their rarity, considering their embryologic basis, and highlighting their importance not only for educational purposes but also surgical and radiological applications.


La arteria axilar es una continuación de la arteria subclavia y luego esta continua como arteria braquial. Las variaciones en la arteria axilar no son infrecuentes. Durante la disección de los miembros superiores de un cadáver de una mujer coreana de 95 años, se identificaron diversas variaciones anatómicas de las ramas de la arteria axilar. En el lado derecho no se originaban ramas de la primera parte de la arteria axilar. La arteria toracoacromial (excluyendo la rama pectoral) y el tronco subescapular común surgieron de la segunda parte, y el tronco subescapular común dio origen a la rama pectoral, la arteria torácica lateral y la arteria subescapular. La arteria subescapular se dividía en arteria toracodorsal, arteria circunfleja escapular y arteria humeral circunfleja posterior accesoria. Además, la arteria torácica superior se originaba de la arteria torácica lateral. La tercera parte de la arteria axilar dio origen a las arterias circunflejas humerales anterior y posterior, la rama acromial accesoria y la arteria toracodorsal accesoria. En el lado izquierdo, de la primera parte surgían la arteria toracoacromial (excluyendo la rama pectoral) y la arteria torácica superior. De la segunda parte se originaba el tronco subescapular común, que incluía la rama pectoral, la arteria torácica lateral y la arteria subescapular. La arteria subescapular se dividía en arteria toracodorsal, arteria circunfleja escapular, arteria circunfleja humeral posterior accesoria y arteria torácica lateral accesoria. La tercera parte daba origen a las arterias circunflejas humerales anterior y posterior y a la rama acromial accesoria. Este estudio presenta variaciones de la arteria axilar, enfatizando su rareza, considerando su base embriológica y destacando su importancia no sólo para fines educativos sino también para aplicaciones quirúrgicas y radiológicas.

RÉSUMÉ

Abstract Objective To identify the location of the Riché-Cannieu anastomosis (RCA) in relation to the Cardinal Kaplan Line (KCL) and the Y line. Methods A total of 20 hands of 10 recently-deceased adult male cadavers aged between 27 and 66 years were dissected for the investigation of the relationship of the most distal point of the RCA with the KCL and with the Y line, drawn from the axis of the third metacarpal head, following the longitudinal axis of the hand. Results In 20 limbs, the most distal point of the nerve communication was positioned distally in relation to the KCL. The Y line was positioned on the radial side in relation to the most distal point of the RCA in 14 limbs, and it was positioned on the ulnar side in relation to the Y line in 6 limbs. The crossing between the KCL and the Y line occurred proximal to the RCA in 18 limbs; in 1 hand, it was positioned distal to the intersection between these lines; and in another hand, the KCL was positioned exactly on the RCA. Conclusion Knowledge of these anatomical relationships can prevent damage to nerve branches and thus also prevent paralysis of intrinsic muscles in surgical procedures in the palm of the hand.


Resumo Objetivo Identificar a localização da anastomose de Riché-Cannieu (ARC) em relação à linha cardinal de Kaplan (LCK) e à linha Y. Métodos Ao todo, 20 mãos de 10 cadáveres adultos do sexo masculino com idades entre 27 e 66 anos, recentemente falecidos, foram dissecadas para a investigação da relação do ponto mais distal da ARC com a LCK e a linha Y traçada a partir do eixo da cabeça do terceiro metacarpo seguindo o eixo longitudinal da mão. Resultados Nos 20 membros, o ponto mais distal da comunicação nervosa era distal à LCK. A linha Y estava no lado radial em relação ao ponto mais distal da ARC em 14 membros, e no lado ulnar em relação à linha Y em 6 membros. O cruzamento entre a LCK e a linha Y foi proximal à ARC em 18 membros; em 1 mão, era distal à intersecção entre essas linhas e, em outra mão, a LCK estava exatamente na ARC. Conclusão O conhecimento dessas relações anatômicas pode prevenir danos aos ramos nervosos e, assim, também prevenir a paralisia dos músculos intrínsecos em procedimentos cirúrgicos na palma da mão.

RÉSUMÉ

SUMMARY: Variations in the triceps brachii muscle are uncommon, and especially limited reports exist on the accessory heads of tendinous origin that attach near the upper medial part of the humerus. During anatomical training at Nagasaki University School of Medicine, the accessory head of the triceps brachii muscle was observed on the right upper arm of a 72-year-old Japanese female. It arose tendinously from the medial side of the upper humerus, then formed a muscle belly and joined the distal side of the long head. This accessory head had independent nerve innervation, and the innervating nerve branched from a bundle of the radial nerve, which divided the nerve innervating the long head and the posterior brachial cutaneous nerve. The origin of the innervation of the accessory head was the basis for determining that this muscle head was an accessory muscle to the long head of the triceps brachii muscle. Embryologically, we discuss that part of the origin of the long head of the triceps brachii muscle was separated early in development by the axillary nerve and the posterior brachial circumflex artery, and it slipped into the surgical neck of the humerus and became fixed there. The accessory head crossed the radial nerve and deep brachial artery. When clinicians encounter compression of the radial nerve or profunda brachii artery, they should consider the presence of accessory muscles as a possible cause.


Las variaciones en el músculo tríceps braquial son poco comunes y existen informes especialmente limitados sobre las cabezas accesorias de origen tendinoso que se insertan cerca de la parte medial superior del húmero. Durante un entrenamiento anatómico en la Facultad de Medicina de la Universidad de Nagasaki, se observó la cabeza accesoria del músculo tríceps braquial en la parte superior del brazo derecho de una mujer japonesa de 72 años. Se originaba tendinosamente desde el lado medial de la parte superior del húmero, luego formaba un vientre muscular y se unía al lado distal de la cabeza larga. Esta cabeza accesoria tenía inervación nerviosa independiente, cuyo nervio se ramificaba a partir de un ramo del nervio radial, que dividía el nervio que inervaba la cabeza larga y el nervio cutáneo braquial posterior. El origen de la inervación de la cabeza accesoria fue la base para determinar que esta cabeza muscular era un músculo accesorio de la cabeza larga del músculo tríceps braquial. Embriológicamente, discutimos que parte del origen de la cabeza larga del músculo tríceps braquial se separó temprananamente en el desarrollo por el nervio axilar y la arteria circunfleja braquial posterior, y se deslizó hacia el cuello quirúrgico del húmero y quedó fijado allí. La cabeza accesoria cruzaba el nervio radial y la arteria braquial profunda. Cuando los médicos encuentran compresión del nervio radial o de la arteria braquial profunda, deben considerar la presencia de mús- culos accesorios como una posible causa.

RÉSUMÉ

Abstract The Kaplan anastomosis is a rare communication originally described between the superficial and dorsal branches of the ulnar nerve, distal to the ulnar tunnel, and in strict relation with the pisiform bone. It reveals, by its particular location, a formation of high clinical-surgical expressiveness. In this paper, we describe a Kaplan-type communication from a left upper limb with an unusual loop conformation between branches of the ulnar nerve in the pisiform bone.


Resumo A anastomose de Kaplan é uma rara comunicação originalmente descrita entre os ramos superficial e dorsal do nervo ulnar, distal ao túnel ulnar e em estreita relação com o osso pisiforme. O que revela, pela sua particular localização, uma formação de alta expressividade clínico-cirúrgica. Neste trabalho, uma comunicação do tipo Kaplan, porém, ainda não relatada, é descrita a partir de um membro superior esquerdo com uma inusual conformação em alça, ou um looping, entre ramos do nervo ulnar, no osso pisiforme.

RÉSUMÉ

Introduction The objective of this study was to understand how spine surgeons learn minimally invasive spine surgery (MISS) and how the COVID-19 pandemic impacted the educational experience of MISS. Potential solutions for increasing the spine surgeon's access to MISS educational resources were also discussed. Methods An internet survey was distributed to neurosurgical and orthopedic spine surgeons across multiple online platforms from April to June 2021, asking specific questions about education and training for MISS. Online survey tools were used to contact spine surgeons in the five geographical continents. Results A total of 303 spine surgeons responded to the survey: 272 (89.7%) neuro-surgeons and 31 (10.3%) orthopedic surgeons. The six countries with the greatest number of participants were: Argentina (n » 70; 23.1%), India (n » 47; 15.5%), Brazil (n » 34; 11.2%), Pakistan (n » 10; 3.3%), Mexico (n » 9; 3.0%), and Chile (n » 8; 2.6%). Conclusion Most spine surgeons were able to attend virtual learning events during the pandemic, but cadaveric study was still considered the gold standard for learning MISS. Multidisciplinary effort is needed to develop structured curriculums for teaching MISS that include a variety of educational tools such as cadaver laboratory, guidance from experienced surgeons, and virtual demonstrations.

RÉSUMÉ

Abstract The paraspinal space is intriguing in nature. There are several needle tip placements described in compact anatomical spaces. This has led to an incertitude regarding the appropriate anatomic locations for needle tip positions. Through our cadaver models we try to resolve the issues surrounding needle tip positions clarifying anatomical spaces and barriers. Further we propose an anatomical classification based on our findings in cadaveric open dissections and cross and sagittal sections.

RÉSUMÉ

SUMMARY: A corpse is the body's final destination and, as a social construction, it challenges Western cultural taboos and practices around the corpse, having been shown in cinema. The present paper aims to analyze 17 films that portray Human Anatomy, identifying which themes specifically related to morphological sciences are addressed, namely: a) reactions to first contact with a cadaver, b) medical school and dissection classes, c) origin of cadavers, d) anatomy and suspense or horror movies, e) romance, drama and comedy, f) body snatchers/ resurrectionists, g) anatomical techniques, h) racism, prejudice and anatomy. This is a critical review of films in which, after thorough triple- blind analysis by the authors, it was observed that the encounter with the cadaver provides a series of emotions to the characters participating in the practical anatomy classes shown in the films, such as apprehension, fear, disgust, curiosity, etc. Generally, this surprising contact between the living and the dead is associated with the practice of dissection, which often results in the accentuation of emotions previously reported. From all this, it is concluded that the history of the teaching of Human Anatomy has been interestingly portrayed in cinema from different points of view.


Un cadáver es el destino final del cuerpo y, como construcción social, desafía los tabúes y prácticas culturales occidentales en torno al cadáver, habiendo sido mostrado en el cine. El presente trabajo tuvo como objetivo analizar 17 películas que retratan la Anatomía Humana, identificando qué temas específicamente relacionados con las ciencias morfológicas se abordan, a saber: a) reacciones al primer contacto con un cadáver, b) clases de medicina y disección, c) origen de los cadáveres, d) anatomía y películas de suspenso o terror, e) romance, drama y comedia, f) ladrones de cuerpos/resurreccionistas, g) técnicas anatómicas, h) racismo, prejuicio y anatomía. Se trata de una revisión crítica de películas en las que, tras un minucioso análisis triple ciego por parte de los autores, se observa que el encuentro con el cadáver proporciona una serie de emociones a los personajes que participan en las clases prácticas de anatomía que se muestran en las películas, tales como aprensión, miedo, repugnancia, curiosidad, etc. Generalmente, este sorprendente contacto entre vivos y muertos se asocia con la práctica de la disección, lo que muchas veces resulta en la acentuación de las emociones anteriormente relatadas. De todo ello se concluye que la historia de la enseñanza de la Anatomía Humana ha sido interesantemente retratada en el cine desde diferentes puntos de vista.

SUMMARY: The purpose of this study was to inform the anatomical types of the nasal septum of which including variations by dissection and to provide guidelines for clinical adaptation. For this purpose dissections were performed on 70 nasal septums of formalin fixed Korean adult cadavers (20 males, 11 females, and 39 of unknown sex) with an age at death of 13-105 years. The septal deviation was checked before midsagittal section the nasal cavity with the aid of a laryngoscope. The mucosa on the nasal septum was then removed to observe the morphology of the nasal septum. The shape of each component of the nasal septum was identified, and photographs were taken from a midsagittal plane. This study has discovered various anatomical types of the nasal septum and its variations. The correlations between septal types according to their proportions were also analyzed. The results reported herein provide detailed anatomical knowledge that can be used as a valuable reference for rhinoplasty procedures.

RÉSUMÉ

SUMMARY: The human soleus muscle has attracted attention in the fields of sport science, rehabilitation medicine, etc. for improving exercise performance in training, preventing injuries, and rehabilitation. The sagittal tendon plate of the soleus muscle is particularly important in rehabilitation. Few studies, however, have evaluated the shape of the sagittal tendon plate in the human soleus muscle in detail and attempted to classify its variations based on its morphology. In this study, we conducted a detailed analysis of the morphology of the sagittal tendon plates in soleus muscle specimens from Japanese cadavers and constructed a morphology-based classification system and evaluated their frequencies of occurrence. First, the specimens were divided into those with a sagittal tendon plate that was visible on the anterior surface (pennate muscle group) and those without (non-pennate muscle group). Next, based on the "number" and "breadth" of the sagittal tendon plates, the pennate muscle group specimens were further classified into four classes: Class I (one tendon, thin), Class II (one tendon, slightly broad), Class III (one tendon, very broad), and Class IV (two tendons, thin). Subsequently, the specimens were further divided into three types based on the position where the sagittal tendon plate joined the Achilles tendon: median tendon type, lateral tendon type, and medial tendon type (a total 13 divisions). When 458 Japanese soleus muscle specimens were classified into these divisions, the occurrence frequencies of Class I-IV were 80.57 %, 4.59 %, 5.46 %, and 1.09 %, respectively. In Class I, the median tendon type was more frequent than the lateral and medial tendon types, accounting for 48.47 % overall. The classification types of the sagittal tendon plate and their respective occurrence frequencies shown in this study are expected to serve as fundamental data in implementing rehabilitation of soleus muscle.


El músculo sóleo humano ha atraído la atención de la ciencia del deporte, la medicina de rehabilitación, etc. para mejorar el rendimiento del ejercicio en el entrenamiento, prevenir las lesiones y rehabilitación. La lámina tendinosa sagital del músculo sóleo es particularmente importante en la rehabilitación. Sin embargo, pocos estudios han evaluado en detalle la forma de la placa lámina sagital en el músculo sóleo humano y han intentado clasificar sus variaciones en función de su morfología. Realizamos un análisis detallado de la morfología de las láminas de los tendones sagitales en muestras de músculo sóleo de cadáveres japoneses y construimos un sistema de clasificación basado en la morfología y, además, evaluamos su frecuencia de aparición. Los especímenes se dividieron en aquellos con una lámina de tendón sagital que era visible en la superficie anterior (grupo muscular pennado) y aquellos sin (grupo muscular no pennado). A continuación, según el "número" y el "ancho" de las láminas de los tendones sagitales, las muestras del grupo de músculos pennados se clasificaron en cuatro clases: Clase I (un tendón, delgado), Clase II (un tendón, ligeramente ancho), Clase III (un tendón, muy ancho) y Clase IV (dos tendones delgados). Posteriormente, las muestras se dividieron en tres tipos, según la posición donde la lámina del tendón sagital se unía al tendón calcáneo: tipo de tendón mediano, tipo de tendón lateral y tipo de tendón medial (un total de 13 divisiones). En estas divisiones se clasificaron 458 especímenes de músculo sóleo de indiviuos japoneses, las frecuencias de ocurrencia de Clase I-IV fueron 80,57 %, 4,59 %, 5,46 % y 1,09 %, respectivamente. En la Clase I, el tipo de tendón mediano era más frecuente que los tipos de tendón lateral y medial, representando el 48,47 % del total. Se espera que los tipos de clasificación de la lámina del tendón sagital y sus respectivas frecuencias de aparición, que se reportan en este estudio, sirvan como datos fundamentales para implementar la rehabilitación del músculo sóleo.

RÉSUMÉ

Abstract Objective To evaluate the technical reproducibility of a block of the pericapsular nerve group (PENG) of the hip aided or not by ultrasound in cadavers. Materials and Methods The present is a randomized, descriptive, and comparative anatomical study on 40 hips from 2 cadaver groups. We compared the PENG block technique with the method with no ultrasound guidance. After injecting a methylene blue dye, we verified the dispersion and topographical staining of the anterior hip capsule through dissection. In addition, we evaluated the injection orifice in both techniques. Results In the comparative analysis of the techniques, there were no puncture failures, damage to noble structures in the orifice path, or differences in the results. Only 1 hip from each group (5%) presented inadequate dye dispersion within the anterior capsule, and in 95% of the cases submitted to either technique, there was adequate dye dispersion at the target region. Conclusion Hip PENG block with no ultrasound guidance is feasible, safe, effective, and highly reliable compared to its conventional counterpart. The present is a pioneer study that can help patients with hip pain from various causes in need of relief.


Resumo Objetivo Propor e avaliar a reprodutibilidade técnica do bloqueio do grupo de nervos pericapsulares (pericapsular nerve group, PENG, em inglês) do quadril sem o auxílio da ultrassonografia, em cadáveres, de forma comparativa à realização do bloqueio guiado pela ultrassonografia em outro grupo de cadáveres. Materiais e Métodos Estudo anatômico randomizado, descritivo e comparativo, realizado em 40 quadris divididos em 2 grupos amostrais de cadáveres. Fez-se uma comparação da técnica do bloqueio do PENG à técnica não guiada por ultrassonografia injetando-se corante azul de metileno, seguida de dissecção para verificação da dispersão e da coloração topográfica da cápsula anterior do quadril, além de avaliação do pertuito das injeções entre as técnicas. Resultados Na análise comparativa das técnicas, não houve falha na punção, lesão de estruturas nobres no pertuito, ou diferença nos resultados. Não houve adequada dispersão do corante pela cápsula anterior somente em 1 quadril de cada grupo (5%), e em 95% dos casos submetidos a qualquer uma das técnicas observou-se dispersão adequada do corante pela região alvo. Conclusão O bloqueio do PENG do quadril sem auxílio de ultrassonografia é factível, seguro, eficaz, e com alta confiabilidade quando comparado à sua realização guiada pelo aparelho de imagem. Este estudo é pioneiro, e pode ajudar muito os pacientes que têm dor no quadril por diversas causas e necessitam alívio.

RÉSUMÉ

The study of the human anatomy predominantly requires the use of remains of the dead. Unclaimed bodies are easily available in India; however, there is a lack of clear ethical guidelines governing their transport and exchange. We raise pertinent questions about the ethical implications of using unclaimed bodies in teaching anatomy, their transport, transfer and storage, ethical and legal issues regarding the voluntary donation of bodies and dry human bones, as well as the commercial aspects of body donation. We also examine existing practices in anatomy departments in India, and explore the available legal safeguards. We detail practical and ethical challenges in the existing practices and safeguards and attempt to provide solutions.

RÉSUMÉ

El material cadavérico (MC) humano en la cursada de Anatomía de la carrera de Medicina es el recurso didáctico más antiguo y completo para la enseñanza. Este elemento conlleva importantes significaciones y múltiples atravesamientos (legales, éticos, procedimentales, culturales) que, a partir de la mitad del siglo XX tuvo cuestionamientos y posicionamientos pedagógicos antagónicos en cuanto a su uso. Su utilización genera reacciones emocionales en los estudiantes, a veces negativas, que son procesadas por los mecanismos de defensa y las estrategiasde afrontamiento con que el sujeto cuente. Cuando éstos son sobrepasados puede aparecer un cortejo sindromático que constituye el afrontamiento cadavérico negativo, el cual es un factor que ubica al alumno en un estado de vulnerabilidad con alteraciones en lo académico. Consideramos necesario para este grupo de estudiantes, como para aquellos en su proceso de afrontamiento, estrategias didácticas que los secunden en el proceso y tiendan a una educación inclusiva para que el afrontamiento cadavérico negativo no sea causal de deserción o riesgosidad.


SUMMARY: The human cadaveric material (CM) in the course of Anatomy of the Medicine career is the oldest and most complete didactic resource for teaching. This element carries important meanings and multiple crossings (legal, ethical, procedural, cultural) that, from the middle of the 20th century, had questions and antagonistic pedagogical positions regarding its use. Its use generates emotional reactions in students, often negative, which are processed by the defense mechanisms and coping strategies available to the subject. When these are exceeded, a syndromic courtship may appear that constitutes negative cadaveric coping, which is a factor that places the student in a state of vulnerability with academic alterations. We consider it necessary for this group of students, as well as for those in their coping process, didactic strategies that support them in the process and tend to an inclusive education so that negative cadaverous coping is not a cause of desertion or risk.

RÉSUMÉ

Background and Objective@#Neuroanatomy is both terrifying to learn and problematic to teach, and the different methods of neuroanatomical education have their own strengths and weaknesses. In this cross-sectional study, we evaluated the perception of undergraduate medical students towards the combined use of plastinated and formalinpreserved brain specimen in their neuroanatomy course. @*Methods@#A bridging program was designed for students whose medical education was interrupted by the COVID-19 pandemic in order to reinforce the knowledge and understanding of anatomy that they acquired in a virtual environment. A total of 175 first year medical students participated in this learning activity, which included seven stations in neuroanatomy spread across two hours, and covered the anatomy of the circle of Willis, brainstem, cranial nerves, spinal cord, internal cerebrum, and external cerebrum. To evaluate short-term learning, the students were asked to take a quiz containing 10 multiple-choice questions before and after the learning activity. In addition, the students also answered a survey containing 11 Likert-type questions asking about their perception of the learningactivity. @*Results@#Following the learning activity, mean test scores increased from 4.73 (SD 1.74) to 5.32 (SD 1.52; mean difference 0.59, p = 0.008). Majority of the students (mean 81%, range 43-93%) had a neutral or positive perception of plastinated brain specimen, and on factor analysis, plastinated brain specimen were found to be both practical and useful for learning neuroanatomy. However, the participants perceived plastinated brain specimen alone to be insufficient for learning neuroanatomy, and a multimodal approach to learning neuroanatomy is ideal. @*Conclusion@#Plastinated brain specimens were found to be an effective complement to formalin-preserved brain, and these should be used by medical schools when designing neuroanatomy learning activities for their students.

RÉSUMÉ

ABSTRACT Objective: Demonstrate the feasibility of endoscopic assisted L5S1 intraforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (iLIF) through a transiliac approach. Methods: Ten transiliac iLIF and ten supra iliac iLIF were performed bilaterally at L5S1 in five randomly selected fresh-frozen human cadavers. The following measurements were recorded: distances from the transiliac track to the iliac crest, posterior superior iliac spine, and superior gluteal neurovascular bundle; pelvic parameters; approach angles; cage's lateral and AP center point ratio (CPR); percentage of the cage crossing the midline in the AP and lateral views. Endplate integrity was assessed through endoscopic visualization. In addition, the facet joint, sacroiliac joint, iliolumbar ligament, and exiting and traversing nerve roots were checked for integrity through anatomic dissection. Results: In the transiliac technique, the axial and coronal approach angles were significantly decreased by 13.5º (95% CI -15.5; -11.5; p value<0.001) and 13.2º (95% CI -15.3; -11.1; p value<0.001), respectively, the sagittal approach angle was significantly increased by 5.4º (95% CI 1.8,8.9; p-value = 0.008), and the AP CPR was significantly higher (MD 0.16; 95% CI 0.12,0.20; p value<0.001). The percentage of the cage crossing the AP view's midline was increased by 31.6% (95% CI 19.8,43.4; p value<0.001). The integrity of endplates, facet joints, sacroiliac joints, iliolumbar ligament, and exiting and traversing nerve roots was maintained. Conclusion: L5S1 transiliac iLIF is a feasible surgical technique. It allows a more centrally placed interbody cage in the coronal plane without compromising the anterior position in the lateral plane. The integrity of the major anatomic structures at risk was preserved. Evidence Level III: A case-control study.

Resumo: Introdução: O cadáver é uma peça insubstituível no aprendizado da anatomia humana, pois permite uma visão tridimensional das estruturas anatômicas. Entretanto, observa-se um cenário de escassez e aumento da demanda das peças cadavéricas nas universidades brasileiras. Logo, diversas instituições, amparadas no artigo 14 da Lei nº 10.406/2002 do Código Civil brasileiro, implementaram programas de doação de corpos interessados em trazer melhorias significativas na qualidade de ensino da disciplina de anatomia. Objetivo: Este estudo teve como objetivo analisar o grau de conhecimento e as perspectivas de uma comunidade universitária a respeito da doação voluntária de corpos cadavéricos para fins educacionais e de pesquisa. Método: Trata-se de um estudo observacional, transversal e prospectivo com abordagem quantitativa e coleta de dados por meio de questionário individual. Os sujeitos incluídos foram os docentes e discentes da Universidade Federal do Maranhão (Ufma), campus Dom Delgado. Os questionários eram relativos à obtenção de informações sobre o conhecimento e a opinião acerca da temática da doação de corpos. Resultado: Obteve-se um total de 264 questionários respondidos, os quais mostraram que 85,65% dos discentes e 87,1% dos docentes tinham conhecimento acerca da possibilidade da doação do próprio corpo. Contudo, observou-se que 94% dos entrevistados não sabiam que procedimentos eram necessários para a doação, e 86% não possuíam conhecimento acerca da legislação que permitia tal prática. Ademais, 27,65% dos participantes estavam aptos a doar o próprio corpo, 33,7% apontaram que não doariam e 38,9% informaram que não tinham opinião formada. O principal motivo apontado para doar foi: "para contribuir com o avanço da educação na área da saúde", e para não doar: "quero ser enterrado ou cremado". Conclusão: Existe um alto percentual de indivíduos que não conhecem os meios para realizar a doação de corpos, sendo evidenciado que os participantes apresentam baixa aptidão para doação. Contudo, existe um percentual significativo de indivíduos que não tem opinião formada sobre o assunto, demonstrando que a divulgação dessa temática é um meio para aumentar a adesão a tal prática. É importante realizar o desenvolvimento de programas de doação de corpos para solucionar a problemática.


Abstract: Introduction: The cadaver is an irreplaceable piece in the learning of human anatomy, allowing a three-dimensional view of anatomical structures. However, there is a scenario of scarcity and increased demand for cadaveric parts in Brazilian universities. Therefore, several institutions, supported by article 14 of Law 10.406/2002 of the Brazilian Civil Code, implemented body donation programs aimed at bringing significant improvements in the teaching quality of the anatomy discipline. Objective: To analyze the level of knowledge and perspectives of a university community regarding the voluntary donation of cadaveric bodies for educational and research purposes. Method: This is an observational, cross-sectional and prospective study with a quantitative approach and data collection through an individual questionnaire. The subjects included in the study were teachers and students from the Federal University of Maranhão, Campus Dom Delgado - UFMA. The questionnaires were related to obtaining information about knowledge and opinions on the topic of body donation. Result: A total of 264 answered questionnaires were obtained, which showed that 85.65% of students and 87.1% of teachers were aware of the possibility of donating their own bodies. However, it was observed that 94% of the interviewees did not know what procedures were necessary for the donation, and 86% did not have knowledge about the legislation that allowed this practice. Furthermore, 27.65% of the participants were able to donate their own body, 33.7% indicated that they would not donate and 38.9% reported that they had no formed opinion. The main reason given for donating was: "to contribute to the advancement of education in the health area", and for not donating: "I want to be buried or cremated". Conclusion: There is a high percentage of individuals who do not know how to carry out the donation of their own bodies, being evidenced that the participants have low aptitude for donation. However, there is a significant percentage of individuals who do not have a formed opinion on the subject, demonstrating that the dissemination of this topic is a means to increase adherence to this practice. It is important to carry out the development of body donation programs to solve the problem.

ABSTRACT Objective: To compare anatomic anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction between two tunnel positions in knees with isolated ligament tears. Methods: Anatomic ACL reconstruction was performed, from hip-to-toe, on 15 fresh cadaveric specimens. No associated lesions were created to enhance knee instability. The protocol was conducted in three states: (1) complete isolated ACL deficiency; (2) anatomic femoral and tibial anteromedial ACL reconstruction (AM REC); and (3) anatomic femoral and tibial central ACL reconstruction (Central REC). The reconstruction protocols were randomly assigned. The continuous mechanized pivot-shift test was recorded dynamically with a tracking system. Results: The Central REC group showed a smaller degree of internal rotation (0.6° ± 0.3° vs. 1.8° ± 0.3°, respectively, P < 0.05) and no difference in anterior translation (4.7 mm ± 0.4 mm vs. 4.5 mm ± 0.4 mm, respectively, P > 0.05) in the pivot-shift test, compared with the AM REC group. Conclusion: The central anatomic ACL reconstruction resulted in greater restriction of internal rotation than the anteromedial anatomic ACL reconstruction. Experimental Study on Cadaver.


RESUMO Objetivo: Comparar a reconstrução anatômica do ligamento cruzado anterior (LCA) entre duas posições de túnel em joelhos com lesões isoladas do ligamento. Métodos: A reconstrução anatômica do LCA foi realizada, do quadril aos pés, em 15 peças anatômicas de cadáveres frescos. Não foram criadas lesões associadas para intensificar a instabilidade do joelho. O protocolo foi realizado em três estados: (1) deficiência isolada completa do LCA; (2) reconstrução anatômica femoral e anteromedial tibial do LCA (AM REC); e (3) reconstrução anatômica femoral e central tibial do LCA (Central REC). Os protocolos de reconstrução foram atribuídos aleatoriamente. O teste de pivot-shift mecanizado contínuo foi registrado dinamicamente com um sistema de rastreamento. Resultados: O grupo Central REC apresentou menor grau de rotação interna (0,6° ± 0,3° vs. 1,8° ± 0,3°, respectivamente, p < 0,05) e nenhuma diferença na translação anterior (4,7 mm ± 0,4 mm vs. 4,5 mm ± 0,4 mm, respectivamente, p > 0,05) no teste de pivot-shift, comparado ao grupo AM REC. Conclusão: A reconstrução anatômica central tibial do LCA resultou em maior restrição da rotação interna do que a reconstrução anteromedial tibial do LCA. Estudo em Cadáver Experimental.

RÉSUMÉ

Background: Knowledge of anatomy, one of the core preclinical subjects, is very important for medical undergraduates to have a thorough understanding of various clinical conditions. The traditional method of learning anatomy involves dissection of human cadavers. Medical education system is entering an era in which the traditional teaching methods are being supplemented by newer technological teaching techniques. Simulation based teaching like virtual dissection table “Anatomage” can enhance the understanding and retaining capacity of the subject. The aim of the study is to determine the perception of virtual dissection, among students and staff and to compare the knowledge acquired through simulation based teaching and traditional teaching method. Material and Method: The study comprised of 150 first-year MBBS students who attended regular theory class on ‘joints of musculoskeletal system’ and answered pre-test. The students were divided into two groups, based on teaching method, one which involved the use of a virtual dissection table, and the other, involving the use of cadaveric dissection. The students were made to attempt the post-test. The students were then assessed based on their responses to the pre- and post-tests. Feedback on the overall utility of the table from both students and staff was taken. Results: The mean post-test scores were significantly higher than the mean pre-test scores, irrespective of the teaching method used. (p<0.001) However, the students who were exposed to the virtual dissection table scored comparatively better in the post-test than those exposed to cadaveric dissection. (p<0.001) 100% of the faculty and 93.3% of the students agreed that three-dimensional visualization improves understanding of anatomical structures. Conclusion: The findings of this study suggest that though cadaveric dissection and virtual dissection enhance learning, the students tend to perform better with virtual dissection. The incorporation of simulation-based teaching into the Anatomy curriculum is essential to supplement traditional cadaveric dissection and ensure engaging as well as high impact delivery of the curriculum.

RÉSUMÉ

Background: Most of the studies described anatomical parameters on X-ray. Here the measurements were carried out on adult human cadavers. This study will essentially help orthopedicians to make suitable hip joint prosthesis, also help forensic expert in disputed sex and help to understand biomechanics of hip joint. These parameters help us to understand etiopathogenesis of disease like osteo-arthritis of hip joint. Methodology: A total 60 hip joints were studied in 20 male and 10 female cadavers. Measurements taken with soft tissue in situ for depth of acetabulum. These measurements were taken using vernier caliper and a steel scale. Mean values of measurements were recorded and compared between males and females. The mean values also compared with right and left side for males and females. Results: The mean depth of acetabulum was found to be 31.78 mm in males and 29.70 mm in females. The mean values of parameter were found to be greater in males than in females.The mean values of parameters was found to be greater on right side in both males and females. Conclusions: The mean values of depth of acetabulum were found to be significantly greater in males than in females. The parameters of hip joint are immense importance to orthopaedicians, radiologists, and prosthetists. These values are useful to identify the fragment of bone for sex determination sent to forensic expert.The acetabulum was relatively deeper in this study compared to other similar study. This explains why congenital subluxation is rare in Indians. These parameters will help the orthopaedicians, prosthetist to design suitable hip prosthesis.
