Metopism and Its Clinical Relevance: A Persistent Suture.

Background: Metopic suture is a dense fibrous joint extending from nasion to bregma. Normally, closure of this suture takes place between 1-8 years of age. Failure of this closure beyond 8 years leads to persistent metopic suture.

Anomalous retrogressive palmaris longus.

An interesting case of unusual unilateral variant of palmaris longus (PL) tendon of forearm was noticed by us. We found two bellies of PL as well as their different insertions. These observations will help in understanding morphological variations of this muscle and its clinical implications.

Systematic Review of Morphometric Analysis of Anterior Cerebral Artery (ACA) Emphasizing on Its Clinical Implications.

Thorough data of morphometric measurements of arteries forming Circle of Willis (CW) is crucial for radiological and neurosurgical interventions. This systematic review has been conducted with the objective to find an effective range of length and diameter of anterior cerebral artery (ACA) and to observe whether there is any change in the length and diameter of ACA depending on age or sex. Articles based on length and diameter of ACA via any mode of study like cadaveric or radiological were considered in this systematic review.

Morphometric Analysis of parameters of Internal Carotid Artery-Potential Clinical Implications.

Background: The study in consideration aimed to do morphometry of internal carotid artery (ICA) and substantiate any differences significant in relation to sex and age on digital subtraction angiography (DSA) imaging.

Objectives: Our study aims to ascertain morphometric parameters of ICA through DSA evaluation and to build a normative data which is accurate enough for the neurovascular procedures to be performed. The study will also carry out correlation of morphometry of intracerebral blood vessels with sex, age, and side-related dimorphism.
