Ossified ligaments in relation to foramina and bony landmarks of the middle cranial fossa
Discussion Presence of ossified MCF ligaments cannot be overlooked in patients with symptoms arising from compression of neurovascular structures and those undergoing skull-base neurosurgery, necessitating pre-surgical screening for presence of calcified ligaments in close proximity to vital structures − a scenario that may influence surgical outcome.

Surgical Anatomy of the vasculobiliary apparatus at the hepatic hilum as applied to liver transplantations and major liver resections
Discussion In the present study, the vasculobiliary anatomies of liver were highly complex with the existence of many anatomic variations. The increasing complexity of hepatic surgical procedures necessitates appropriate knowledge of these anatomic variations. (Source: Journal of the Anatomical Society of India)

A morphometric study of human middle ear ossicles in cadaveric temporal bones of Indian population and a comparative analysis
Discussion Morphometric data obtained in the present study can be useful for the reconstructive procedures. Preoperative radiological assessment is advised for these small bones. The present study also emphasizes on the future directions where in reconstructive procedures can be improved with the artistic renderings of the blueprints provided, for new prosthetic designs which can be manufactured by using Teflon materials.

A Study of the Extensor tendons of the Hand from point of view of Evolution
Discussion Present study attempted to explain the presence of these extra muscles on the basis of their actions. Increased supination and pronation movements have been associated with more number of muscles/tendons in the extensor carpi radialis muscle and could explain the formation of extensor carpi radialis tertius muscle observed in the present study. The need to extend wrist and throw an object in a precise direction which was the need of the primate evolving to be the human being, could explain the extra extensors seen over the wrist and digits. A very well developed extensor mechanism is needed for precise functioni...

Deplastination: Making plastinates histo-pathologically relevant
In this study, a slice of liver tissue was split into two parts. The first half was processed, sectioned and stained with routine H&E staining while the other half was plastinated with S10 plastination technique and was deplastinated after 3 months using sodium methoxide as the deplastinating agent. It was latter stained with routine H&E. The slides were assessed qualitatively on parameters like tissue and cell identification, staining property, preservation of tissue architecture, visualisation of intracellular structures like nuclei, nucleoli, fat goblets etc. and presence of artefacts due to the process....

A morphometric study of predictors for sexual dimorphism of cervical part of vertebral column in human foetuses
Discussion Both transverse diameter and height of cervical vertebrae (C3–C7) shows sexual dimorphism in third trimester. Between these two parameters, transverse diameter the vertebral canal of the cervical region proves to be a better indicator of gender. (Source: Journal of the Anatomical Society of India)

Histological Changes of Myocardium in Dilated Cardiomyopathy
Discussion Dilated cardiomyopathy leads to heart failure which can cause death. So, it is important to know the changes occurring in a heart due to dilated cardiomyopathy for the prognosis and further treatment for the disease. The finding ranges from minimal change to many other variation in the myocytes which is discussed further. (Source: Journal of the Anatomical Society of India)
