    Practical postgraduate teaching in Human Anatomy: A review
    (European Journal of Anatomy, 2021) Sañudo Tejero, José Ramón; Vázquez Osorio, María Teresa; Talarico Jr., Ernest F.; Duparc, Fabrice; Paulsen, Friedrich; Macchi, Verónica; Feigl, George; Elizondo-Omaña,Rodrigo; Caro, Raffaele De; Aragonés, P.; McHanwell, Stephen; Morigg, Bernhard; Konschake, Marko
    Anatomy is a fundamental subject for both medical and surgical training. Anatomy departments might collaborate with clinicians organizing continuing medical education (CME) and other professional development courses. The courses should have a large practical component (in content and organization) but also should provide the latest scientifically based theoretical knowledge, respecting the learning of anatomy as well as aiming at performing different techniques. Anatomy departments should support these courses by establishing hands-on practical training courses and components

    The carotid axis revisited
    (Scientific reports, 2021) Cobiella, R; Quinones, S; Konschake, Marko; Aragonés Maza, Paloma; Leon Vintró, Xavier; Vázquez Osorio, María Teresa; Sañudo Tejero, José Ramón; Maranillo Alcaide, Eva
    The aim was to determine the variations in the level of origin of carotid bifurcation and diameters of the common, internal, and external carotid arteries which is clinically important for several interventional procedures. Therefore, 165 human embalmed corpses were dissected. The data collected were analyzed using the Chi square-test and the Pearson correlation test. The results of previous studies have been reviewed. In relation to the level of the carotid bifurcation, taking as a reference point the hyoid bone, the values ranged from 4 cm below the hyoid body to 2.5 cm above the body of the hyoid, being the average height—0.33 cm, with a standard deviation of 1.19 cm. The right carotid bifurcation was established at a higher level (x = − 0.19 cm.) than the left one (x = − 0.48 cm.) (p = 0.046). On the contrary, no significant gender differences could be observed. The arterial calibres of the common and internal carotid arteries were higher in male than female. In the internal carotid artery (X = 0.76 cm.), the left was greater than the right (X = 0.72 cm.) (P = 0.047). However, no differences in the distribution of the calibre of the external carotid artery were found neither by side nor gender. Variations in the level of bifurcation and calibres of carotid arteries are relevant for interventional radiology procedures and head and neck surgeries. Knowledge of these anatomical references might help clinicians in the interpretation of the carotid system.
