Anatomical Positions

10.7K
In anatomy, several standard anatomical positions are used as references for describing the position and orientation of different body parts. These positions help provide a common frame of reference when discussing anatomical structures. The anatomical position is the standard reference point for describing the body's position and orientation. In this position:
The body is upright, facing forward, and standing erect.
The feet are parallel and flat on the floor.
The arms are hanging by the...

Male Sexual Response: Erection & Ejaculation

3.6K
Sexual stimulation can take various forms, such as physical touch and visual or auditory cues. When this happens, the parasympathetic reflex in the sacral portion of the spinal cord is activated. This reflex stimulates the release of nitric oxide (NO), which then dilates the arterioles in the penis, increasing blood flow to the erectile tissues - the corpora cavernosa and corpus spongiosum.
The blood filling the erectile tissues compresses the veins, which helps to prevent blood from leaving...

Area of Science:

  • Orthopedics
  • Traumatology
  • Emergency Medicine

Background:

  • Luxatio erecta (inferior shoulder dislocation) is an uncommon shoulder injury.
  • It results from indirect or direct forces, frequently involving arm hyperabduction.

Observation:

  • The clinical presentation of luxatio erecta is distinctive.
  • Diagnosis is primarily clinical, supported by imaging to exclude associated injuries.

Findings:

  • Closed reduction is the standard treatment for luxatio erecta.
  • This case report details a successful closed reduction in an 83-year-old female patient.

Implications:

  • Early diagnosis and closed reduction lead to favorable outcomes for luxatio erecta.
  • Physical therapy and rehabilitation are crucial for post-reduction recovery.
