Anatomical spaces

Colopleural fistulas are mostly left-sided and related to trauma, Crohn’s disease, or gastrointestinal malignancy. However, a diverticular fistula between the colon and right pleural space has not been reported and is rare considering the liver forms a natural anatomical barrier on this side.

Caudal block is easily performed because the landmarks are superficial. However, the sacral hiatus is small and shallow in pediatric patients. In the present study, we evaluated under general anesthesia whether the distance between the bilateral superolateral sacral crests increased with growth, whether an equilateral triangle was formed between the apex of the sacral hiatus and the bilateral superolateral sacral crests, and whether expansion of the epidural space could be confirmed by ultrasound.

The ultrasound-guided proximal intercostal block (PICB) is performed at the proximal intercostal space (ICS) between the internal intercostal membrane (IIM) and the endothoracic fascia/parietal pleura (EFPP) complex. Injectate spread may follow several routes and allow for multilevel trunk analgesia.

Spondylolisthesis is a common degenerative spinal deformity. At the level of spondylolisthesis, the anatomy of the interlaminar space may differ from normal spine, in which case optimal angle of the needle insertion for spinal anesthesia may change. This study compared the optimal angle of needle insertion during spinal anesthesia in patients with and without lumbar spondylolisthesis using ultrasound.

Pigmented villonodular synovitis (PVNS) is a rare, benign, proliferative neoplastic process that commonly affects synovial-lined anatomic spaces. The diffuse type (DPVNS) is characterized by invasion of the entire joint synovium, while the localized type (LPVNS) is characterized by a relatively normal synovial appearance.

The aim of this study was to investigate the prognostic significance and various classifications for anatomic masticator space involvement (MSI) in patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). Methods: This study retrospectively analyzed 742 patients with untreated nondisseminated NPC who underwent magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan of the nasopharynx and neck.

Constructive Anatomy is George B. Bridgman's excellent book of anatomical drawing instruction. Ideal for beginning to intermediate artists, Constructive Anatomy begins with instruction on drawing hands and works its way through the human body giving detailed instruction on how to draw realistic human figures. Bridgman's drawing methodology builds upon the analysis of human anatomy, how the skeleton fits together, and how muscle sits upon the skeleton to create the human form.

During the period 2000 to 2006, operation of the Cohesion Policy has shown that integrating environmental considerations into economic decisions can produce significant savings and improve profit and productivity. In particular, this has been the case in the areas of improving waste management and resource efficiency including water conservation via metering and reducing energy used for space heating.

Newborn and infant mortality has been a plague of public health for centuries. However, during the 1900s, an extraordinary effort began to correct this disgraceful situation. Especially remarkable have been the accomplishments of the last 30 years or so. Although many challenges remain, very noticeable progress has been made relative to some specific causes of death in babies. In the United States, neonatal respiratory distress syndrome (NRDS) was one of the main causes of death in premature newborns.

Efhami Sisi et al., in Chapter Four, review the effect of management practices on anatomical, physiological and morphological characteristics of trees in agroforestry systems. They specifically assess the impact of initial spacing between trees and treecrop inter-planting on tree growth and wood properties in a tree-alfalfa intercropping system in a temperate region.

Intraperitoneal infections generally arise because a normal anatomic barrier is disrupted. This disruption may occur when the appendix, a diverticulum, or an ulcer ruptures; when the bowel wall is weakened by ischemia, tumor, or inflammation (e.g., in inflammatory bowel disease); or with adjacent inflammatory processes, such as pancreatitis or pelvic inflammatory disease, in which enzymes (in the former case) or organisms (in the latter) may leak into the peritoneal cavity.

The space between the diaphragm, which separates the chest cavities from the abdominal cavity, and the transverse colon is called the "subphrenic space". If there is an abscess developing in this space, this is called a subphrenic abscess. As there is a right and a left chest cavity, there can be from an anatomical point of view a right-sided and a left-sided subphrenic abscess.
