DISSECTION METHOD TO APPROACH THE HUMAN CORACOID PROCESS OF THE SCAPULA 3.1 Introduction Dissection is a traditional approach to medical laboratory education(Waters, 2008). Using human cadavers one of the most widely used model in medical and clinical research for several decade .Considerable amount of literature have been published on different dissection methods of human body .(Romanes et al.,1986;Tank et al.,2008). These currant dissection manuals showed different approach to access different part of human body. However it is hard to find a standard literature which described the dissection method to access the coracoid process which can allow researchers, scientists and anatomists to approach this important anatomical structure with …show more content…
These procedures do not allow unobstructed visualization of the whole coracoid process. In addition, the detail method to approach the coracoid process of the scapula typically not described in anatomical dissection books. It is rather integrated as part of pectoral region dissection which involved reflecting pectorals major muscles from their sternocostal and clavicular attachments followed by the pectoralis minor to its insertion until when the coracoid process is finally exposed (Romanes, 1986). Tank (2008) described a similar procedure for dissecting the pectoral region in other to approach the coracoid process of the scapula in human body. All of these procedures described above allow access to coracoid process at the expense of the integrity the pectoral region. Consequently, dissection of the anterior chest wall typically renders the pectoral regions unfit for continued …show more content…
It gives wide exposure of coracoid process for the study of anatomical structures of the region, bones density as well as given clue to properly access this bone for researches relates to anthropometric studies. In this short modified method, the skin was reflected laterally and the fat, fascia removed, the pectorals major and deltoid muscles are clearly defined, which correlated with some previous published reports on dissection procedures of pectoral region (Romanes, 1986; Tank 2008), unlike the previously published techniques, where the pectorals major and pectorals minor muscles were dissected to expose the coracoid process (Romanes, 1986; Tank 2008). Our alternative approach seems to be consistent with the deltopectoral approach used in shoulder surgery with which the coracoid process can easily be approach once the deltopectoral groove with cephalic vein was identified, and the pectorals major and the deltoid was retracted upward and as well as laterally to access the coracoid process (Webb and Funk, 2006). In contrast, this new approach method to the coracoid process can easily be undertaken and the clavicular origin of the deltoid muscle could be dissected with minor injuries to enable the identification of the coracoid
Since the condition required an immediate treatment, Dr. Tehrany recommended and promptly scheduled a shoulder surgery to repair the rotator cuff tear. Later that year, Lt. Scalzo visited Manhattan Orhtopedic Care for a second time, this time for a stiffness and pain in his right shoulder. Since Dr. Tehrany efficiently treated Lt. Scalzo’s left shoulder, there was no doubt that he will be the
The Neovison vison dissection lab was intended so students could study the external and internal anatomy and physiology of the Neovison vison. Once the Neovison vison was dissected, students could see the similar and different characteristics of the Neovison vison that are present within the human body. Students were able to identify muscles, bones, organs, tissues, insertion points, and origin points within the body of the animal. Reflection on skeletal and muscular structure was also studied throughout the dissection lab. Although the muscles within the Neovison vison and the skeletal structure of the Neovison vison are highly similar to those in a human body, this dissection lab made it known that there truly are anatomical differences within
CSI-1 Conclusion A young male adult was cut in the left hypochondriac region with a knife pointed upward, which was previously used for cutting ribs. The patient is experiencing pain in the thoracic area and he is also suffering pain in the abdominal region which is the location of the knife wound. He is also suffering from respiratory issues deep within the thoracic area. Additionally, the patient shows redness and swelling in the pelvic region.
The dissection process consisted of making a sagittal plane incision stretching from the anus to the throat and removing the ten daphnia from the fish’s intestinal
The next system I dissected was the respiratory system. My first task was to find the trachea as well as the esophagus. My goal was to compare the structure of each. I found the trachea to be wider, stronger, and it had a bumpy surface. The structure of the esophagus is small, but versatile which allows it to move easily.
Section 1: Identification and Evaluation of Sources This investigation will explore the question: To what extent did surgical practices change from The Middle Ages to the Renaissance? Medical Theology and Anatomical practices from the 1400s to the 1600s are the two main subject areas for this investigation. History texts and online archives will be used to research details of the practices, especially the beginnings of human dissection, and psychological performances such as lobotomy. Source A is a secondary source chosen due to the detailed accounts of the transformation of science during the time period.
This condition is painful and distorts the look of the breasts. The Solution Dr. Nina S. Naidu can correct this problem during a breast augmentation revision near Queens. If the breast implants were placed subglandularly, Dr. Naidu can create new pockets for the implants beneath the pectoral muscle. If the implants are already in the submuscular position, Dr. Naidu can move them into new pockets created above the pectoral
The report notes a prior shoulder surgery in 2002, on the right shoulder. An X-ray was done of the left shoulder, which did reveal degenerative changes in the acromioclavicular joint, as well as post-surgical changes, and degenerative changes on the right side in the acromioclavicular joint. The applicant was subsequently referred to an orthopedic surgeon, Dr. Peter Simonian. An MRI of the right shoulder was conducted on April 10, 2015, which noted tendinopathy of the supraspinatus and infraspinatus tendons. No tear of the rotator cuff, but a superior labrum anterior to posterior tear extending to the posterior labrum, as well as post-surgical changes.
There are countless scientist, but unless it is Albert Einstein, they don't get the acknowledgement they deserve. In this research paper I have decided to let the light shine on Andreas Vesalius. A renaissance physician who with his detailed and careful description of the anatomy of the human body, revolutionized the study of biology and practice of medicine. He accomplished the first comprehensive textbook of anatomy by his observations on the dissections he made himself on human bodies. Even though he is not that well known, Andreas Vesalius contributed many important things to science and medicine.
Injuries and growths in the high cervical region of the spine, including the C2, have limited or no movement from the neck down, though a person
Petrissage helps to loosen the muscle fibres, this technique involves kneading the injured area, one hand pulling one way and the other hand pulling the other way. Stripping the muscle, this helps to remodel the scar tissue by the thumb working deep on the muscle in the direction of the blood flow. Lastly Circular frictions can be applied, this helps to break down scar tissue and realign in. This type of massage helps to smooth out tight muscle knots so that the patient is comfier and more

The Elusive Technique of Folding Anatomical Subjects Christopher Yuki Itoh September 20, 2014 1 Introduction The spirit of the Renaissance was portrayed through its insatiable curiosity about the natural world and the desire to explain how it works. With this, art and science flourished throughout the western world with the goal of sailing to- wards a greater future. While studying nature, people during the Renaissance found great interest in their own human body. Andreas Vesalius was one of those people.
Ordinary people understood the human body during the Renaissance because with the first medical schools in Europe, people who were interested in the medical field could go to school and learn about human dissection. Human dissection has allowed people to get a visual understanding of the body’s functions. This advanced their ideas and helped the diseased. Andrea Vesalius was a professor of surgery and anatomy. He executed his ideas to students through dissection, he wrote the book called On the Structure of the Human Body, which started the observation of science and anatomy.
The use of Cadavers in my view, and from my experience of working and studying in the dissection lab of the National University of Ireland, Galway is one of the best ways human anatomy can both be taught and learnt and I believe is an essential aspect of the study of educational anatomy and should be utilised in the learning of anatomy where possible. The active, hands-on exploration that cadaveric dissections provide, joined with excellent teaching methods makes for an interesting yet challenging method of learning anatomy. My first time entering a dissection room, I felt a sense of captivation and was very much in awe. This fascination stemmed from the fact that I, along with twenty-something other anatomy students would be delving scalpel first into a human corpse, and experiencing the gross anatomy of the human body first hand.
