The lymphatic system of the uterine cervix: towards a more precise definition of the drainage routes.

Purpose: Lymph node involvement in cancer of the uterine cervix is a major independent prognostic factor for overall survival. The aim of our study was to examine the lymphatic drainage regions of the different parts of the uterine cervix.

Methods: An anatomical study of fresh cadavers was conducted by injecting patent blue in the anterior or posterior lip of the uterine cervix and dissecting drainage regions.

CNS tumor with EP300::BCOR fusion: discussing its prevalence in adult population.

The Central Nervous System (CNS) tumor with BCOR internal tandem duplication (ITD) has recently been added as a novel embryonal histomolecular tumor type to the 2021 World Health Organization (WHO) Classification of CNS Tumors. In addition, other CNS tumors harboring a BCOR/BCORL1 fusion, which are defined by a distinct DNA-methylation profile, have been recently identified in the literature but clinical, radiological and histopathological data remain scarce. Herein, we present two adult cases of CNS tumors with EP300::BCOR fusion.

Total Denervation of the Elbow: Cadaveric Feasibility Study.

Purpose: Total elbow arthroplasty for the treatment of patients with severe elbow osteoarthritis is associated with postoperative activity limitations and risk of midterm complications. Elbow denervation could be an attractive therapeutic option for young, active patients. The aim of our study was to assess the feasibility of selective total elbow denervation via 2 anteriorly based approaches.

Sensory Innervation of the Hip Joint and Referred Pain: A Systematic Review of the Literature.

Objectives: The aim of this literature review was to establish consensus with respect to the anatomic features of the articular branches innervating the hip joint and the distribution of sensory receptors within its capsule.

Methods: Five electronic databases were queried, with the search encompassing articles published between January 1945 and June 2019. Twenty-one original articles providing a detailed description of sensory receptors around the hip joint capsule (n=13) and its articular branches (n=8) were reviewed.

Iron distribution in the lentiform nucleus: A post-mortem MRI and histology study.

Iron plays an important role in many neurobiological processes, especially in the basal ganglia, the brain structures with the highest concentration. Composed of the pallidum and putamen, the lentiform nucleus plays a key role in the basal ganglia circuitry. With MRI advances, iron-based sequences such as R2* and quantitative susceptibility mapping (QSM) are now available for detecting and quantifying iron in different brain structures.
