Bones of the Upper Limb: Radius01:09

Bones of the Upper Limb: Radius

11.4K
The radius is longer of the two bones that make up the human antebrachium or forearm. At the proximal end, the radius articulates with the capitulum of the humerus and the radial notch of the ulna to form the elbow joint. At the distal end, the radius articulates with the ulna via the ulnar notch, forming the distal radioulnar joint. Distally, the radius also attaches to the carpal wrist bones (scaphoid and lunate) to form the radiocarpal joint.
The radius has a nail-shaped head, and a...

Sutures of the Skull01:22

Sutures of the Skull

14.7K
The human skull is composed of several bones that come together to protect the brain and support the structures of the face. The junctions where these bones meet are called sutures.
Sutures are immobile joints between adjacent bones of the skull. The narrow gap between the bones is filled with dense, fibrous connective tissue that unites the bones. The long sutures located between the skull bones are not straight but instead follow irregular, tightly twisting paths. These twisting lines tightly...

Bones of the Upper Limb: Humerus01:19

Bones of the Upper Limb: Humerus

14.6K
The upper limb consists of the arm, forearm, wrist, and hand bones. The humerus is the single bone of the upper arm region. Proximally, it has a large, spherical, smooth head that articulates with the glenoid cavity of the scapula to form the glenohumeral or shoulder joint. The margin of the head is the anatomical neck, a residual epiphyseal plate. Laterally it extends to form bony projections called the greater tubercle and the lesser tubercle. Next to the tubercles is the surgical neck, a...

Cranial Bones: Lateral View01:27

Cranial Bones: Lateral View

8.2K
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...

Summary
This summary is machine-generated.

Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) revealed two main split patterns in sagittal split ramus osteotomy (SSRO). Mandibular ramus anatomy significantly influences these SSRO split patterns, aiding surgical prediction.

Area of Science:

  • Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery
  • Orthognathic Surgery
  • Anatomic Studies

Background:

  • Sagittal split ramus osteotomy (SSRO) is a common procedure for correcting maxillofacial deformities.
  • Understanding mandibular ramus split patterns is crucial for surgical success and complication avoidance.
  • Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) offers detailed 3D visualization of craniofacial anatomy.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the split patterns of the mandibular ramus during SSRO.
  • To identify anatomic features associated with different SSRO split patterns.
  • To enhance preoperative planning for SSRO procedures.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective cohort study of 130 patients undergoing SSRO.
  • Analysis of mandibular ramus split patterns using CBCT 1 month post-surgery.
  • Correlation of split patterns with various mandibular anatomic variables.

Main Results:

  • Two primary SSRO split patterns were identified: lingual side near mylohyoid sulcus (75.38%) and posterior border (24.62%).
  • No fractures occurred through the mandibular canal.
  • Lingual cortical bone thickness, posterior ramus bone thickness, mandibular angle degree, and ramus shape influenced split patterns.

Conclusions:

  • Mandibular ramus anatomy is a significant determinant of SSRO split patterns.
  • Preoperative CBCT assessment of mandibular anatomy can predict SSRO split patterns.
  • This knowledge aids in optimizing surgical technique and outcomes in SSRO.
