Complete Anatomy’s Post

Thirty-five years ago, on this day, Dr. Pena did for the first time a maneuver that he decided to call "vaginal switch". A particular anatomy is required to be able to perform it. The patient must have two large hemi-vaginas, located high in the pelvis, and the longitudinal distance between both cervices should be greater than the vertical distance to reach the perineum. One hemi-uterus is sacrificed, the vaginal septum is removed, and a now, single vagina, is brought down to the perineum.

FOR THOSE INTERESTED IN THE SUPRASCAPULAR NERVE CASE AND HOW TO LOCATE IT. Normal Anatomy. To TRACK the SUPRASCAPULAR NERVE with ultrasound, start at the supraclavicular fossa. A high-frequency linear probe is used to identify the SUPERIOR TRUNK of the brachial plexus, which is seen as a “honeycomb” structure BETWEEN THE ANTERIOR AND MIDDLE SCALENE MUSCLES. Locate the suprascapular nerve as a small branch from the superior trunk, then follow it laterally and posteriorly beneath the OMOHYOID MUSCLE. Continue tracing it toward the suprascapular notch, which passes under the superior transverse scapular ligament. KEY LANDMARKS include the scapular spine and coracoid process. Look for signs of hourglass constriction, such as nerve flattening, hypoechoic areas, or fascicular swelling. Proper alignment and dynamic scanning are essential for clear visualization. #mskrad

Median or Midsagittal posterior plane: With this posterior approach the cerebellar vermis is insonated from above and the ultrasound beam is at approximately at 90 degrees creating the best conditions for visualizing this part of the brain. All the anatomical midline landmarks of the Vermis and posterior fossa can be studied easily and successfully by using this approach. These include; •Entire vermis (Primary and Secondary Fissures and vermian lobules) •Fastigium •Triangular fourth ventricle •Cisterna Magna •Brainstem (midbrain, pons and medulla oblongata) •Tentorium (the upper border of the posterior fossa) •Sylvian Aqueduct (the narrow channel between 3rd and 4th ventricle) 💡💡 important point: If you can not see the Sylvian Aqueduct, there are 2 possibilities. Either the aquaduct is obstructed (check fetal thumbs for adduction) or you are not in exact midsagittal plane.

This is a 30 mm long gravid cervix. Besides the morphologic features, softening is demonstrated and documented by pressing and releasing the transducer. A hard cervix will be pushed en bloc instead of being squished. In this example, there is an increased premature delivery risk. This is an 'Olde Tyme' physical exam trick from the introduction of high-speed imaging in the mid 1970's that is worthwhile whenever the probe and target are close. You might think of this as a form of elastography. Other observational factors include localized pain with inflammation and post-release reactivity. #ultrasound, #physicalexam, #prematuredelivery, #elastography, #tissuecompliance,

Skin doesn't just cover our body The largest organ of our body (skin weighs between 3.5 and 10 kilograms) has three layers: The epidermis: It acts as a protective barrier and is regularly renewed. Dermis: The skin itself, formed by connective tissue. It provides strength to the skin and also contains sebaceous and sweat glands. Hypodermis or subcutaneous fatty tissue: It is responsible for thermoregulation as well as the accumulation and storage of "stores" of fat.

During an extended posterior petrosal approach, the posterior tentorial flap, temporal lobe, and cerebellum are held with retractors while the dura and tentorium are mobilized using retention sutures. What structures are visualized with this approach? Find the answers and explore more advanced techniques from the Neurosurgical Atlas.

Retinal Arteriolar Variation: ▪️A 43-year-old hypertensive patient, diagnosed with Non-Ischemic Central retinal vein Occlusion in OS, presented with a striking anatomical variation in retinal vasculature.  ▪️The inferior first-order retinal arteriole after initiating from the optic disc bifurcates, before reaching the fovea, and the superior branch after crossing the midline forms the superior arcade afterwards and produces dichotomous branching as usual.  ▪️This defies basic anatomical considerations for retinal vasculature as they never cross the midline, also known as the watershed line for retinal vessels.
