A Rare Case of Penoscrotal Webbing and Extensive Hernias: An Anatomical Report With Genetic Insights.

During a routine anatomical dissection of an 81-year-old male cadaver received through the Gift Body Program of Saint Louis University School of Medicine (SLU SOM), a massive bulging in the abdominal area was observed that was consistent with numerous hernia repairs noted in the donor's self-reported medical history. Gross anatomical dissection of the cadaveric body revealed extensive herniation of portions of the small intestine and peritoneal sac along the costal margin and extending to the left aspect of the abdomen. Additionally, an uncircumcised phallus was buried within the suprapubic fat pad and demonstrated simple, grade III penoscrotal webbing (PSW), creating an impression of micropenis presence.

A Unique Presentation of an Upper Subscapular Nerve Variation Accompanied by an Accessory Subscapular Artery.

The presence of an upper subscapular nerve branching from the posterior division of the superior trunk, and it being accompanied by an accessory subscapular artery, is of both clinical and surgical significance. During routine dissection of the root of the neck in a 75-year-old male cadaver, an unusual branch from the third part of the right subclavian artery was observed lateral to the dorsal scapular artery. Continued dissection revealed that this artery traveled between the anterior divisions of the superior and middle trunks of the brachial plexus before traveling alongside a nerve from the posterior division of the superior trunk of the brachial plexus.
