Cranial Bones: Lateral View01:27

Cranial Bones: Lateral View

The lateral view of the cranium is dominated by temporal, sphenoid, and ethmoid bones.
The temporal bone forms the lower lateral side of the skull. The temporal bone is subdivided into several regions. The flattened upper portion is the squamous portion of the temporal bone. Below this area and projecting anteriorly is the zygomatic process of the temporal bone, which forms the posterior portion of the zygomatic arch. Posteriorly is the mastoid portion of the temporal bone. Projecting...
Cryptococcal Meningitis01:27

Cryptococcal Meningitis

Cryptococcal meningitis is a life-threatening opportunistic infection predominantly associated with HIV/AIDS, accounting for over 100,000 deaths annually worldwide. However, it also affects individuals with other forms of immunosuppression, including those undergoing immunosuppressive therapy, organ transplant recipients, patients with innate immunodeficiencies, and individuals with hematological disorders. The infection is caused mainly by Cryptococcus neoformans and Cryptococcus gattii,...

Summary
This summary is machine-generated.

Subcutaneous dermoid cysts were found in nine wild caribou across Canada and Alaska. These cervical cysts, primarily in the throat, were not observed in other cervid species examined.

Area of Science:

  • Veterinary Pathology
  • Wildlife Health
  • Dermatology

Background:

  • Subcutaneous dermoid cysts are uncommon findings in wildlife.
  • Caribou (Rangifer tarandus) are a significant species in northern ecosystems.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To report the occurrence and characteristics of subcutaneous dermoid cysts in wild caribou.
  • To compare the incidence of dermoid cysts in caribou versus other cervid species.

Main Methods:

  • Review of diagnostic specimens submitted to a Canadian wildlife laboratory from 1966 to 2007.
  • Identification and characterization of subcutaneous dermoid cysts in caribou.
  • Comparative analysis with diagnostic data from white-tailed deer, mule deer, elk, and moose.

Main Results:

  • Nine cases of subcutaneous dermoid cysts were identified in wild caribou from Canada and Alaska.
  • All cysts were located in the cervical region, with five in the throat area.
  • No dermoid cysts were found in over 2,000 other cervids examined during the same period.

Conclusions:

  • Subcutaneous dermoid cysts can occur in wild caribou.
  • Caribou may be a species susceptible to developing these cysts, particularly in the cervical region.
  • Further investigation into the etiology and prevalence of dermoid cysts in caribou populations is warranted.
