Misconceptions about the posterior approach for renal and ureteral surgery are dispelled. A review of the pertinent lumbar anatomy and a few fine points of technique are emphasized. The advantages of easy access to the kidney, minimal postoperative pain, and absence of the occurrence of postoperative hernia warrant more frequent use of this procedure.

Rare variant of psoas minor or a newly observed component of the iliopsoas muscle complex? Case report.

Background: Multiple structures found in different compartments of the human body are considered as morphologically variable, however, this general assumption does not apply to the components of the iliopsoas muscle complex. In this study, we report a case of an extremely variable muscle observed in the above-mentioned compartment.
Materials And Methods: During a routine dissection of the posterior abdominal wall of a 78-year-old male cadaver, an anomalous muscle with an atypical morphology was observed, photographed and subjected to further measurements.
Revisiting the microsurgical anatomy of the sagittal stratum and surgical implications: fiber microdissection and tractography study.

Objective: The term "sagittal stratum" was coined by Heinrich Sachs in 1892 to define a parasagittally oriented white matter layer at the temporo-occipital cortex. Although this term has been widely used for more than 100 years, the description, classification, borders, and involved fibers of the structure vary among authors and remain imprecise. Through fiber microdissection and tractography, the authors aimed to define the sagittal stratum and resolve the uncertainty by revealing the relationship of this structure to other cerebral white matter pathways and the orientation of fibers in it.

There is a misconception that pictures are easy to comprehend, which is problematic in pedagogical practices that include pictures. For example, if a child has difficulties with verbal narration to picture sequences, it may be interpreted as specific to spoken language even though the child may have additional difficulties with comprehension of visual narratives in the form of picture sequences. The purpose of the present study was therefore to increase our understanding of semantic processing in the pictorial domain in relation to semantic processing in the verbal domain, focusing on 9-13 years-old children with typical language development.

This study reported a case of radius flexible intramedullary nailing complicated by temporary paralysis of the posterior interosseous nerve due to compression of the ESIN on the nerve in an 8-year-old boy. The nerve damage resulted from an essential misconception at the surgery. Despite bad decisions made during qualifications and the procedure undertaken, restoring the nerve function, and gaining satisfactory functional fracture recovery was possible.
