ABSTRACT

Background: Dissection of human cadavers has been central part of medical education since renaissance. Dissection has also been labelled as the royal road and cadaver as the first patient. First year medical students when encounter human cadavers for first time, faces a variety of emotional reactions and mixed feeling. Aim and objectives: For the assessment of impact of anxiety and physical symptoms from the experience of dissection hall, we prepared questionnaires to see whether emotional stress can be diminished and obsereved changes in feeling and attitude in first year medical students. Materials and methods: The present study was conducted on 180 first year medical students over 2 years (Batch 2013 and 2014) at Darbhanga medical college, Laheriasarai, Bihar, India. All the students were given 3 sets of questionnaire. The students were asked the answer in either yes or no. Results: The difference in the rate of anxiety initially and 3 months later was significant. Conclusion: For improving the attitude of the students towards cadaveric dissection there must be better teacher-students interaction which in turn will help in improving their mental status to handle the highest level of stress in clinical carrier.

ABSTRACT

Background: Radius is the lateral bone of forearm. It has anterior, interosseus and posterior surface. Anterior surface bears a nutrient canal at the upper end transmitting nutrient artery. Nutrient artery is the major source of blood supply of long bones mainly during growing period and early phase of ossification. Aim and objectives: Nutrient foramina is essential for nutrition and growth for long bones and also for survival of osteocytes in some procedures such as bone graft, tumor resection, congenital pseudoarthrosis, trauma and transplant techniques in orthopaedics. Study of nutrient foramina is important not only in academic purpose but also useful in medico-legal cases in relation to their position. Materials and methods: Present study was conducted in the department of Anatomy, Indira Gandhi Institute of Medical Sciences, Patna, Bihar. 110 dry adult and macerated human radii were selected for study. Results: In this study, out of 110 radii, 108 radii had single foramina and 2 radii had double nutrient foramina. Foraminal index was calculated which indicating nutrient foramina was near to the upper end. Conclusion: Nutrient foramen in radius was near to the upper end, so the lower end of radius is the growing end.

ABSTRACT

Anatomical variations in the arterial supply of adult human stomach have long baffled even themost experienced surgeons during surgical manipulation of the stomach. The stomach develops from the foregut hence its arterial supply is derived from the coeliac trunk. The present study is aimed at observing the anatomical variations of the arteries supplying the stomach. This study has been conducted on fifty cadavers during routine dissections. The aberrant arteries observed have both embryological and clinical significance. A comprehensive knowledge of the arteries nourishing the stomach along with their anomalies is vital for the surgeons to avoid iatrogenic complications during surgical manipulation involving the organ.
