Disorders of the Skeletal Muscle01:28

Disorders of the Skeletal Muscle

1.5K
The clinical conditions affecting the skeletal muscle tissue are broadly categorized as musculoskeletal and neuromuscular disorders.
Musculoskeletal disorders
Musculoskeletal disorders involve injuries and conditions affecting the skeletal muscles and associated connective tissues. These disorders can arise from acute biomechanical stresses or chronic overuse and can occur across different age groups. Common injuries include sprains, fractures, and muscular strains, often resulting from...

Bones of the Upper Limb: Ulna01:15

Bones of the Upper Limb: Ulna

3.7K
The ulna and radius are parallel bones of the antebrachium or the forearm. The ulna lies medially and consists of a bony tip called the olecranon process at its proximal end. This hook-like projection articulates with the olecranon fossa of the humerus and forms the "hinged" ulnohumeral part of the elbow joint. This joint facilitates forearm extension and flexion while preventing its hyperextension. Similarly, the coronoid process, another bony projection on the proximal/anterior side...

Bones of the Upper Limb: Humerus01:19

Bones of the Upper Limb: Humerus

6.2K
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...

Muscles that Move the Forearm01:16

Muscles that Move the Forearm

3.1K
The muscles that move the forearms can be divided into four groups: forearm flexors, forearm extensors, forearm pronators, and forearm supinators. The flexors and extensors act on the elbow joint, while the pronators and supinators act on the radioulnar joints.
Forearm Flexors
The biceps brachii, brachialis, and brachioradialis are forearm flexors. The biceps brachii is made up of two heads. Its long head originates at the supraglenoid tubercle of the scapula, whereas that of the short head is...

Area of Science:

  • Veterinary Oncology
  • Surgical Oncology

Background:

  • Neoplasia affecting the limbs is a common veterinary concern.
  • Clinical signs include lameness, swelling, or palpable masses.
  • Forelimb tumors involve various tissues like skin, bone, and muscle.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To highlight the importance of accurate diagnosis in limb neoplasia.
  • To emphasize the critical role of surgical planning for limb tumors.
  • To underscore the challenges of treating recurrent limb tumors.

Main Methods:

  • Diagnostic procedures such as fine needle aspiration and biopsy are essential.
  • Staging and treatment planning are guided by diagnostic results.
  • Surgical strategies are developed based on tumor location and extent.

Main Results:

  • Diagnosis is necessary for staging, treatment planning, and prognostication.
  • Surgical planning aims for complete resection on the first attempt.
  • Limited skin availability impacts revision surgeries for recurrent tumors.

Conclusions:

  • Early and accurate diagnosis is paramount for managing limb neoplasia.
  • Meticulous surgical planning improves outcomes and reduces recurrence.
  • Effective treatment requires a multidisciplinary approach considering staging and prognosis.
