Management of the malignant colonic polyp remains a subject for debate even after almost two decades of experience.1,2 Some researchers believe all patients should have a colonic resection; others argue that only certain cases call for laparotomy, while still others hold for a selective approach but with varying criteria.3–6 Colorectal cancer is one of the most common oncological diseases, and over the last 5 years, the individual risk of developing this pathology has increased and reached on about 6%.7 Patients older than 55 years form the main risk group for this disease. However, there is a significant trend of “rejuvenation” of the disease, which often can occur in young people. The proportion of patients aged 40 to 50 years has increased and reached 10%.7,8

The palmaris longus muscle (PLM) is fusiform, slender and is located on the anterior face of the forearm, between the flexor carpi ulnaris and the flexor carpi radialis muscles, having proximal insertion into the medial epicondyle of the humerus and distally in the palmar aponeurosis. Phylogenetically, the PLM is considered a vestigial muscle in regression because it has a short belly and a long tendon1,2 and its function is considered insignificant in humans,3 although it weakly assists in flexing the wrist and resisting adduction and abduction movements.4 Numerous variations occur in the palmaris longus muscle and may even be absent unilaterally or bilaterally. The absence of the palmaris longus muscle seems to be hereditary, with dominant character, incomplete penetrance and lateral variability.2 When present, the PLM may present variations in the muscular belly and distal tendon. The muscular belly may be central (normal shape), distal (inverted shape), digastric or fully muscular.5 The distal tendon can be divided into two or three parts, that is, bitendinous or tritendinous, being referred to as an “accessory” muscle.6–11 The knowledge of the anatomical variations of the palmaris longus muscle is of great importance in the surgical area, since the PLM tendon meets the necessary length, diameter, availability and can be used in grafts without producing any functional deformity,12 for correction of upper eyelid ptosis, lower eyelid, lips and chins.3 The aim of the present study was to determine the frequency of the palmaris longus muscle, its morphometry and relations between its muscular and tendon parts.

The wide range of mobility of the thumb and its capacity for opposition are one of the main evolutionary elements that differentiate our species from the rest of the animals. To understand this mobility, we should consider the thumb as an articular complex that includes the joints: scaphotrapezial, trapeziometacarpal, metacarpophalangeal, and interphalangeal. We will focus only on the trapeziometacarpal joint.1,2

The significance and responsibility of the state’s education system is traditionally considered not only as an indicator of socioeconomic level and cultural development of society, but also as a base for the intellectual, social and personal growth of the young generation. Reforming the modern pedagogical system, restructuring its priorities, introducing new educational standards, demand a new higher level of requirements for the quality of high education, the readiness of university graduates for full-fledged life and professional activities in the context of modern social challenges. At the same time, the significant changes in the qualitative composition of students, insufficient funding of the higher pedagogical school and the tendency to view the education system as a service sector inevitably lead to a decline in the teacher’s social status, loss of prestige of pedagogical education, and outflow of intellectual youth from the pedagogical industry.1 Thus, the problem of timely assessment of the psychosocial potential of university students and the development of an appropriate strategy for its implementation may be a key factor in resolving existing contradictions and an effective tool for improving the quality of education and the socio-psychological adaptation of students in higher education.2,3

Scientific study of regeneration as an aspect of development began in the third century BC with Aristotle who studied development of the chick embryo with a focus on the anatomical origin of organs such as the cardiovascular system.1 Regeneration as a separate area of study began in earnest with Trembley2 who focused his experiments on the freshwater invertebrate, Hydra. Trembley’s approach involved experiments in which he would wound adult polyps or graft a segment of Hydra (e.g. the head pole) to adult polyps and observe the subsequent regenerative process the occurred. The strength of Hydra for such studies is its high regenerative capacity, simplified body structure, and state of constant renewal in which all cells of the organism are in constant turnover. Since Trembley, additional organisms have been incorporated as models for the study of regeneration to include such organisms as: planaria, the red spotted newt, the axolotl, and most recently the freshwater fish, zebrafish (Danio renio).3, 4 As stated though, Hydra’s is unique among these models because of its high regenerative capacity, simplified body structure, and state of constant renewal. Because of these attributes, studies have been able to target the complete lineage of the epithelial and stem cell populations using advanced techniques as will be discussed.

Bilateral testicular arteries (TAs) are the ventral subdivisions of abdominal aorta, mostly separated at the lower starting point of the renal arteries, and obliquely descended on the psoas major muscles. In the retroperitoneal region of abdomen, they run on the superior aperture of pelvis and enter into the spermatic cords in the inguinal canal. Clinical features and the awareness of TAs variants are associated with solving such a comprehensive issue of fertility and varicocele.1 Mostly some reports showed that variant testicular artery aroused from renal arteries or with double source of origin from aorta, frequently took place on the right side.2,3 In our case report, we observed double TAs are originated from aorta in addition to testicular (artery)-renal (vein) anastomosis on the left side.
