Article Synopsis
  • Asterion is a key surgical landmark located at the junction of several skull sutures, traditionally believed to align with the transverse-sigmoid sinus junction (TSSJ).
  • This study aimed to assess the accuracy of asterion as a TSSJ landmark specifically within the Indian population, using a sample of 16 dried skulls from AIIMS, New Delhi.
  • The findings revealed that asterion is not a reliable TSSJ marker, with noteworthy average distances indicating that TSSJ is positioned significantly anterior and mostly inferior to asterion, suggesting the need for further research with larger sample sizes.

Maturation of neurons of the myenteric plexus (MP) of human fetal sigmoid colon was studied at various weeks of gestation (WG). There is abundant literature on the development of MP in various segments of the gut but there are fewer reports on the development of MP in human sigmoid colon which is a site of various disorders. Sigmoid colonic segments from 12 aborted foetuses aged 14-23WG were processed for NADPH histochemistry.
