Muscular anatomy of the forelimb of Leopardus geoffroyi: Functional and phylogenetic aspects in Feliformia, part I. Proximal forelimb.

Anatomical knowledge is fundamental for all species. In particular, myology allows a deeper understanding of ecomorphology-especially for those species hard to observe in the wild-and may be an important source for phylogenetic information. In this study, we analyzed the myological variation of the musculature of the shoulder and arm of the forelimb in species of the suborder Feliformia and its relationship with the phylogenetic history and the locomotor behavior, habitat, and predatory habits of the species within this group, using Leopardus geoffroyi as a case study.

Background: Open and crushed forearm injury is a complex and rare injury affecting the upper extremity. It results in damage to various structures, including bones, soft tissues, and neurovascular bundles, ultimately leading to functional impairment. Typically, these injuries occur owing to high-energy trauma.

Congenital radioulnar synostosis (CRUS) presents a complex forearm deformity, requiring precise osteotomy planning for anatomical restoration. This study proposes an automatic osteotomy preoperative planning method for forearms with CRUS. Proximal forearm bones are first aligned with the template forearm and then a dual dimensional optimization (DDO) strategy is used to optimize the spatial transformation parameters of the distal fragment.

Article Synopsis
  • - This study highlights the anatomy of the carpal tunnel and identifies four potentially dangerous anatomical variations that could lead to nerve or vessel injuries during minimally invasive carpal tunnel release surgeries.
  • - Researchers examined the carpal tunnel in 104 wrists from 52 body donors and measured distances between critical neurovascular structures like the median nerve and ulnar artery to determine their proximity.
  • - The authors recommend using preoperative ultrasound assessments to help minimize the risk of neurovascular injuries, particularly in patients with these identified anatomical variations.

Article Synopsis
  • - The one-bone forearm procedure is a promising treatment for severe forearm deformities, but traditionally faced issues like nonunion and infection; a modified technique was developed to improve union rates by enhancing fixation between key bone segments.
  • - A study on 28 young patients with forearm supination contracture due to neonatal brachial plexus injury showed an average correction of 116° and a complete bone union rate within about 6.6 weeks, with 100% success and no complications reported.
  • - This modified technique not only enables significant rotational correction but also demonstrates a low complication rate, making it a valuable option for treating severe supination deformities in children.
