Diagnostic capability of dynamic ultrasound evaluation of supination-external rotation ankle injuries: a cadaveric study

Cara Fisher, Tebyan Rabbani, Katelyn Johnson, Rustin Reeves et autres

BACKGROUND: Ankle syndesmosis injuries are common and range in severity from subclinical to grossly unstable. Definitive diagnosis of these injuries can be made with plain film radiographs, but are often missed when severity or image quality is low. Computed tomography (CT) and …

Novel Investigation of the Deep Band of the Lateral Plantar Aponeurosis and Its Relationship With the Lateral Plantar Nerve

Cameron M. Beck, Austin R. Dickerson, Kevin J. Kadado, Zachary A. Cohen et autres

BACKGROUND: We describe a thick fascial band arising from the medial aspect of the lateral plantar aponeurosis diving deep into the forefoot crossing over a branch of the lateral plantar nerve. Because a review of current literature resulted in limited and outdated …

Two Cases of the Psoas Quartus Muscle Variant

D.G. Lewis, Cara Fisher

Background: The psoas major muscle originates from the thoracic and lumbar vertebrae, joins with the iliacus along the iliac crest, and attaches to the femur at the lesser trochanter. The iliopsoas muscle, formed from the joining of the psoas and iliacus muscles, …

Massive Intracranial Hemorrhage with Subsequent Subfalcine and Transtentorial Herniation: A Case Study

Laura Monje‐Garcia, Daniel A. Hubbard, Sarah Nguyen, Spencer M. Steinberg et autres

Background: Brain herniation is a progression of pathology due to increased intracranial pressure creating a mass effect. The mass effect created by a large intracranial hemorrhage on one side of the brain often leads to a subfalcine herniation. Subfalcine herniation is a …

CLINICAL IMPLICATIONS OF ACCESSORY RENAL ARTERIES: A CASE REPORT

David‐Dan Nguyen, Dexter Nwachukwu, C. Lammers, Alissa Mirochnitchenko et autres

The kidneys are paired retroperitoneal organs that receive 20-25% of cardiac output and function in the filtration of blood and maintenance of homeostasis. In 70% of the population, each kidney is perfused by a single renal artery that branches off the abdominal …

Pericardial Cyst: A Case Report

Cara Fisher, Sarah Philip, P Lachowsky, S. K. Hutton et autres

Abstract\nBackground:\nPericardial cysts are usually benign, congenital or idiopathic anomalies with an occurence of 1:100,000 and are commonly noted in the right (70%) or left (22%) cardiophrenic angle and are rarely found in other locations of the pericardium, such as the anterior or …

Unilateral Variant Psoas Major with Split Femoral Nerve

C. R. PARRY, S.B. Momin, Aaron Perez, Marina Motina et autres

Background:\nThe psoas major muscle originates from the transverse processes of lumbar vertebrae 1-5 and inserts into the lesser trochanter of the femur. The femoral nerve arises from ventral rami of lumbar spinal nerves 2-4 and passes through the psoas major in an …

Massive right-sided hiatal hernia variation

Molly Farrell, Mahima Dhume, Cara Fisher, Rustin Reeves

During routine cadaver dissection for academic purposes, a massive hiatal hernia was identified in an 84- year-old female cadaver. A herniation of abdominal contents was displaced into the right thoracic cavity, which contained the entire stomach, pyloric sphincter and portions of the …

MASSIVE RIGHT-SIDED HIATAL HERNIA VARIATION: A Case Report

Molly Farrell, Mahima Dhume, Cara Fisher, Rustin Reeves

Background: A hiatal hernia describes a herniation of abdominal contents, typically the stomach, through the esophageal hiatus into the mediastinum. The majority of reported paraesophageal hernias (PEH) are left-sided; although, right-sided hiatal hernias have a better prognosis, there is little mention of …
