This report analyzes the case of an autopsy finding of the right aberrant subclavian artery in an 80-year-old patient, which was clinically manifested by the development of dysphagia and cachexia. An autopsy revealed the absence of the brachiocephalic trunk, which normally originates from the arch of the authors, as well as an abnormal origin of the right subclavian artery from the posterior surface of the aortic arch, 1,1 cm to the left and distal to the orifice of the left subclavian artery. The proximal segment of the abnormal vessel, up to 1,0 cm in diameter, was located between the spinal column and the esophagus, leading to its compression.","PeriodicalId":15028,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Anatomy and Histopathology","volume":"62 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82603823","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Allogeneic biomaterial (AB) is applied to regenerate various tissues and organs.   The aim of the study was to identify morphofunctional features of the skeletal muscle tissue after physical exertion and under AB application.   Material and methods. This experimental study involved male Wistar rats. Anaerobic physical exertion was simulated using the Porsolt test with a load equal 10 % of the body weight for 30 days. After training, animals of the main group (n = 10) were injected AB suspension: 4 ml of a 0.2 % solution into the muscles of the fore and hind limbs totally. Animals of the control group (n = 10) received physiological saline into similar zones. Tolerant load was investigated in 5 and 21 days after injection. Then the animals were withdrawn from the experiment, and muscles of the hind limbs were studied histologically, the total number, the average cross-sectional area of muscle fibers, and the number of necrotic fibers were measured.   Results. In 5 and 21 days animals from the control group manifested dystrophic changes in muscle fibers: type III, IV contractures, microcirculation disorders, mosaic necrosis of muscle fibers, inflammatory cell infiltration, and a decreased tolerant load. In 21 days fibrosis was detected. The AB introduction provided rhabdomyogenesis as soon as in 5 days. Inflammatory cell infiltration decreased, the polygonality of muscle fiber profiles was restored, and edematous phenomena were leveled. There was hyperplasia of muscle fibers, a decreased number of necrotic muscle fibers, inhibited fibrosis, and an increased tolerant load. AB further biodegraded.   Conclusion. AB contributed to the reduced manifestations of dystrophic changes in muscle fibers, strengthened actoprotective mechanism, and restored physical activity in the early stages.","PeriodicalId":15028,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Anatomy and Histopathology","volume":"24 10 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"91051863","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To date, several isolated publications have reported clinical cases of fetal death in mothers infected with coronavirus infection. The authors have made an assumption on the association of adverse outcomes with placental lesions.   The aim of the study was to analyse a clinical case of a moderate-course new coronavirus infection in a pregnant woman at a long gestation period who underwent an antenatal fetal death, and evaluate the features of placental histopathology and their impact on adverse gestational outcomes.   Material and methods. The authors have analysed Russian and international research publications from various sources, including eLIBRARY.RU, CyberLeninka, PubMed databases etc. and, considering the data obtained, investigated a clinical case of intrauterine fetal death in a pregnant woman infected with SARS-CoV-2. The placenta was studied in accordance with the clinical recommendations of the Russian Society of Pathologists \"Rules for placental pathological and anatomical examination\" and the international classification of placental lesions (Amsterdam, 2015).   Results. The results obtained support the association between acute diseases of the upper respiratory tract and developing severe hemodynamic disorders in the \"mother-placenta-fetus\" system in pregnant women infected with SARS-CoV-2.

To analyze the literature sources, we searched for the keyword “virtopsy” in Scopus, Web of Science, Medline, PubMed, and RSCI databases for the period 2006–2022, the results included 199 sources. Of these, 73 publications including original and review papers were selected for review. It is known that diagnosis verification and therapy correction are largely possible only thanks to the work of pathologists. The coincidence of the post-mortem diagnosis with the lifetime diagnosis opens up the possibility to optimize the course of therapy in similar cases. The literature analysis allows us to conclude that the level of imaging accuracy and frequency of successful interpretations of post-mortem radiological examinations have increased significantly, the fact being associated both with an improved quality of X-ray optical and scanning equipment, and formation of a relatively extensive database containing previously obtained findings. Thus, virtopsy is currently a powerful auxiliary tool applicable in post-mortem diagnosis. The combined use of classical autopsy and virtopsy can increase the accuracy of diagnosis, which, together with digital data processing and storage tools, will bring the work of specialists to a new level of interdisciplinary interaction.","PeriodicalId":15028,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Anatomy and Histopathology","volume":"24 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81609794","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The exclusion criteria were neck surgery, thyroid nodules and endocrine system diseases. All women were divided into age groups according to the scheme of age periodization of human ontogenesis adopted in 1965. There were 42 thyroid glands obtained from the women died at the mature age, whose fatal outcome was not associated with the pathology of the endocrine system or the thyroid gland; they were allocated into a separate group.   Results. Significant differences were registered in the thickness of the left lobe of the thyroid gland in women of the first and second adulthood periods; there was also detected a significant predominance of the size and volume of the right lobe over the left one. Cluster analysis, relying on the thickness of the isthmus of the thyroid gland and the symmetry of its lobes, allows differentiating three shapes of the thyroid gland: “butterfly-shaped”, semilunar and indefinite.   Conclusion. The asymmetry of the thyroid lobes is a typical feature of this organ of the endocrine system at the studied age periods in mature women. When determining the shape of the thyroid gland, dissecting and morphometry are more informative options than ultrasound examination. To compare the findings on the shape of the thyroid gland obtained by various researchers, it is necessary to standardize the technique and apply a unified classification of the thyroid gland shapes.","PeriodicalId":15028,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Anatomy and Histopathology","volume":"38 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88175257","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To assess the morphometric parameters of the diaphragm, there was tailor-made an organocomplex represented by the abdominal cavity covered by an intact diaphragm. Longitudinal, transverse dimensions, the area of the diaphragm and its parts were investigated.   Results. The analysed morphometric features allowed specifying that in extreme body constructions, there were considerable statistically significant differences in the morphometric parameters of the diaphragm and its parts. It was established that the largest area of the diaphragm, central tendon, costal part and its pericardial surface were observed in people with a brachymorphic body construction; the highest statistical significance was observed between extreme body constructions. The ratio of the tendon part to the total area was also the largest in the brachymorphic form, and the smallest in the dolichomorphic form. There were specific morphometric parameters typical of all types of body constructions: the ratio of the muscular and tendon parts of the diaphragm, the depth of the pleural sinuses, and the areas of the weak points of the diaphragm. The largest linear dimensions of all parts of the diaphragm were recorded in individuals with a brachymorphic body construction. On the contrary, people with dolichomorphic body type had the lowest values. However, the diaphragm domes were the highest in individuals with a dolichomorphic form, and the shortest in those with a brachymorphic form.   Conclusion. The study of the morphometric parameters of the thoracic diaphragm allowed recording the major linear dimensions and areas of definite parts specific for all body constructions.

STBI (main group, n = 30) was simulated under anesthesia (Zoletil-100) on the tailor-made device. Intact animals (n = 6) were used as controls. Morphological assessment of the hippocampal nervous tissue (in fields CA1 and CA3) was carried out using light microscopy (staining with hematoxylin and eosin, thionin according to Nissl), immunohistochemical reactions for synaptophysin (p38), Caspase 3, GFAP, and morphometric investigation techniques (ImageJ 1.53 program) in animals of the control group and in experimental animals in 1, 3, 7, 14, 30 days after STBI. Statistically hypotheses were tested using nonparametric tests (Kolmogorov–Smirnov, Kruskal–Wallis, Mann–Whitney, Wilcoxon, Spearman tests) in the Statistica program. 10.0.   Results. In a day after STBI, there were noted degeneratively altered dark neurons, shadow cells, small foci of neuron prolapse, pronounced manifestations of edema-swelling in the perikarya and neuropil. Coagulative-ischemic mechanisms of neuronal death prevailed, structural and immunohistochemical signs of apoptosis activation (Caspase 3 in the perikarya) were detected in sporadic cells of the field CA1. In the late period of the study (in 30 days), hydropic changes, chromatolysis with cytoplasmic clearing, hyperchromia without and with homogenization of neuronal structures persisted. An increased neuroglial index was distinctive. Statistically significant differences in the main morphometric parameters were revealed between segments and terms. The total number density of neurons decreased by 43.8 % in CA1 and in CA3 by 22.0 % in 30 days after injury; a significant (20–40 %) deficit of neuropil synapse terminals remained. Thus, the compensatory-restorative reorganization of the hippocampal neuronal networks occurred combined with its structural and functional insufficiency. Probably, Caspase 3 was crucial in implementing neuroplasticity.   Conclusion. Post-STBI diffuse-focal pathomorphological changes were revealed in CA1 and CA3 cells of the hippocampus. An increased relative content of glial cells indicated the realization of sanogenesis of the nervous tissue. Reorganization of interneuronal connections occurred during 30 days of observation, caspases might be participants of this process.","PeriodicalId":15028,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Anatomy and Histopathology","volume":"6 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78102592","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
