Objective: The objective of this article is to discuss and illustrate commonly visualized fissures and sutures in the temporal bone. This topic is important because a thorough knowledge of normal anatomy is necessary to avoid misinterpretation as fractures.
Conclusion: Small normal anatomic fissures are now routinely visualized with the increasing use of MDCT in trauma patients. An awareness of these structures is required by radiologists interpreting studies with fine temporal bone slices to prevent erroneous interpretation.

Background: The standard approach for addressing intra-articular calcaneal fractures involves open reduction with plate and screw fixation, with ongoing discourse regarding the application of grafts to address bone gaps. The aim of this study is the temporal comparison of the radiological and functional outcomes in patients undergoing surgery for intra-articular calcaneal fractures, with a specific focus on the use of bone grafts.
Methods: Thirty patients, comprising 13 with iliac grafts and 17 without, were enrolled in the study.

Endolymphatic sac tumors (ELSTs) are rare, slow-growing, and locally aggressive neoplasms that originate from the epithelial lining of the endolymphatic duct and sac. These are characterized by their infiltrative growth pattern and the potential for local destruction of surrounding structures, including the inner ear and temporal bone. We report a case of an incidentally diagnosed sporadic ELST.

Background: La-related protein 7 (LARP7) is a key regulator of RNA metabolism and is thought to play a role in various cellular processes. LARP7 gene autosomal recessive mutations are the cause of Alazami syndrome, which presents with skeletal abnormalities, intellectual disabilities, and facial dysmorphisms. This study aimed to determine the role of LARP7 in modulating gene expression dynamics during osteogenesis.

Introduction: Tuberculous otomastoiditis is a rare and serious infection that most often occurs in association with pulmonary involvement. It is easy to diagnose when the two pathologies are associated and isolated. We herein report the case of a patient initially hospitalized for Pseudomonas aeruginosa necrotising otitis externa (NOE), which delayed the diagnosis of tuberculous otomastoiditis.
