Sutures of the Skull01:22

Sutures of the Skull

7.6K
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...

Neurulation01:30

Neurulation

42.6K
Neurulation is the embryological process which forms the precursors of the central nervous system and occurs after gastrulation has established the three primary cell layers of the embryo: ectoderm, mesoderm, and endoderm. In humans, the majority of this system is formed via primary neurulation, in which the central portion of the ectoderm—originally appearing as a flat sheet of cells—folds upwards and inwards, sealing off to form a hollow neural tube. As development proceeds, the...

Cranial Bones: Superior and Posterior View

2.8K
The superior view of the cranium shows the frontal and paired parietal bones.
The frontal bone is the single bone that forms the forehead. At its anterior midline, between the eyebrows, there is a slight depression called the glabella. The frontal bone also forms the supraorbital margin of the orbit. Near the middle of this margin is the supraorbital foramen, the opening that provides passage for a sensory nerve to the forehead. The frontal bone is thickened just above each supraorbital margin,...

Summary
This summary is machine-generated.

Fetal MRI diagnoses of posterior fossa malformations are increasing. This study found that fetuses with these malformations may have normal long-term neurodevelopmental outcomes if no other anomalies are present.

Area of Science:

  • Neuroscience
  • Developmental Biology
  • Radiology

Background:

  • Fetal MRI use is rising, leading to more posterior fossa malformation diagnoses.
  • Long-term neurodevelopmental outcomes for these fetuses are not well-understood.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the long-term neurodevelopmental outcomes of fetuses diagnosed with structural posterior fossa malformations via fetal MRI.

Main Methods:

  • A historical cohort study compared fetuses with and without posterior fossa malformations using fetal brain MRI (2011-2019).
  • Neurodevelopmental outcomes were assessed using the Vineland Adaptive Behavior Scales II (VABS-II).
  • Evaluated malformation types, additional anomalies (structural, genetic), and outcomes.

Main Results:

  • 126 fetuses included: 56 with posterior fossa malformations, 70 controls.
  • No significant overall neurodevelopmental differences between groups (93.4 vs. 99.8).
  • Motor skills were lower in the malformation group (87.7 vs. 99.3) but within normal limits.

Conclusions:

  • Fetuses with structural posterior fossa malformations can have normal neurodevelopment if comprehensive prenatal screening (sonography, genetics, MRI) reveals no additional anomalies.
  • Further research with larger cohorts and longer follow-up is recommended to confirm findings and aid clinical decisions.
