The bifurcate ligament is a central stabilizer of the carpus. It is the one of the structures concerned in chain of fibular injuries in supination traumas. Damage to the bifurcate ligament is often missed in clinical and radiological diagnosis. Hints are given on the mechanism of injury, staging and graded treatment of this ligamentous injury.

Anterior lumbar interbody fusion (ALIF) is an anterior surgical approach for interbody fusion in the lumbar spine which affords the surgeon unfettered access to the disc space and allows for release of the anterior longitudinal ligament and insertion of a large, lordotic interbody graft. Despite the benefits associated with ALIF when compared with other lumbar interbody fusion techniques, the ALIF approach is associated with a number of unique complications, and certain patient-specific criteria (e.g.

Surgeons use anatomical landmarks like the scaphoid tubercle, pisiform, trapezial tubercle and hook of hamate, along with Kaplan cardinal line (KCL) to avoid injury to the recurrent motor branch (RMB) of the median nerve during carpal tunnel release. The presence of transverse muscle fibres (TMF) overlying the transverse carpal ligament (TCL) may suggest proximity of the RMB, but their anatomical relationship is unclear. In this study, we evaluated the accuracy of anatomical landmarks to the RMB, TMF origin and insertion, and examined the relationship between TMF presence and RMB running patterns.

Background: One of the key steps in arthroscopic Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction (ACLR) is getting the femoral tunnel at the right position to attach the graft. While the correct position has been described as a low and posterior position behind the bifurcate ridge on the medial surface of lateral femoral condyle, to reproducibly achieve it more than one technique is being used by surgeons. There are no randomized studies in literature which have evaluated the efficacy of these in a surgeon's hand.

The recurrent motor branch (RMB) of the median nerve has commonly thought to originate proximal to the terminal digital branches, although its anatomical course and number may vary. We report a rare variation of the RMB that arose from the second common palmar digital nerve. The median nerve bifurcated into the first and second common palmar digital nerves distal to the transverse carpal ligament, with the RMB dividing from the second common palmar digital nerve and traveling retrograde to enter the abductor pollicis brevis muscle.

Introduction: Whether aberrant arteries in pulmonary sequestration should be divided at the bifurcation or at the periphery remains a subject of debate (Kodama et al., 2016). Due to the risk of postoperative aneurysm formation followed by fetal bleeding (Rubin et al.
