Range of Anatomical Variations in Brachial Plexus Formation and Branching Pattern in Adult Cadavers
Abstract: Background and Aims: Nerve plexuses are important for surgeons, anatomists, anesthesiologists and critical care physicians. Variations in the formation and branching pattern of the brachial plexus are common and have important clinical significance. The aim of our recent study was to evaluate the anatomical variations in brachial plexus and also find any new anatomical variations in brachial plexus roots, trunks, divisions and cords. There are many lesions in brachial plexus …

A Biomechanical Analysis of Interspinous Spacer by 3D-Finite Element Method
Abstract: Background: Interspinous spacers are known as reliable alternatives for the treatment of various spinal disorders including lumbar spinal stenosis, facet arthrosis, internal disc disruption and so on. Many studies have been performed to investigate biomechanical and clinical features in relation to different interspinous spacers; however, little has been reported on interspinous spacer made of high polymer plastic materials. We purposed to evaluate biomechanical properties of interspinous spacer made of high …
